So your "hard coded" to use American dates is something that can be got around by, er, the editor not writing American dates? I am not seeing this as quite the catastrophe you are, and you could equally present it as the wiki being "forced" to use non-American date styles... As for the underlying debate, we have thrashed out the date-linking issue before at great length, and your "ideal" is certainly not one shared by many other users. -- - Andrew Gray [email protected] _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
