Jc3s5h added a comment.

ISO 8601:2000 contains the following requirement:

"If, by agreement, expanded representations are used, the formats shall be as 
specified below. The
interchange parties shall agree the additional number of digits in the time 
element year. In the examples below
it has been agreed to expand the time element year with two digits.
"a) A specific day
"Basic format: ±YYYYYMMDD Example: +0019850412
"Extended format: ±YYYYY-MM-DD Example: +001985-04-12"

Above Addshore added a comment "As time has passed the level of padding has 
changed." Unless a bot went through and changed all the existing stored dates 
to have the same number of digits as the new amount of padding, this change has 
thrown Wikidata out of compliance with ISO 8601.** There are no ISO 8601 
compliant dates in Wikidata. Every date in Wikidata is invalid.**
