Well, other losers seems to be (1) the editor population at large (who would
have to learn a different linking syntax specially for dates, and - if your
preservation programme is to have any value - be expected to use a
counterintuitive syntax even for unlinked dates); (2) those who wish to retain
existing linked dates in many articles (such as the chronological articles
themselves). I'm personally all in favour of the delinking, but I don't see a
need to do it by brute force in a way that leaves a pointless syntactical
complication for editors frozen in for the foreseeable future.
