[edit] Dates format

Although the dates are dead accurate, the format in which they're presented is not customary of english-speaking societies.

For example, instead of "27 February 1963" it should read "February 27, 1963". Flurry 13:43, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Actually, the '27 February 1963" format is customary in a fair number of English-speaking societies. It's also the format preferred by the United Nations, the BBC, and the Chicago Manual of Style (at least my 14th Ed). If you don't like seeing dates written that way, you can go into Special:Preferences and move the settings so the counter-intuitive comma-ridden February 27, 1963, format displays instead. –Hajor 02:27, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
I'm sorry that you seem not have read this before going ahead and changing all the dates. Please take a look at the "Date formatting" section of Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers). –Hajor 16:24, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
