July 2009

Greetings. Per WP:DATE, I have reverted the date format changes you made without explanation at Six-Day War. There is no substantial reason for such changes, and in addition some appear to have altered direct quotes, something else to be avoided. Please refrain from "fixing what's not broken".

Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Misplaced Pages, as you did to Mausoleum of Mao Zedong, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Your unnecessary date formatting changes are mere annoyances, but your removal of information without explanation or cause borders on vandalism.

your inane date changes

When you mention "International date format", what you're talking about is ISO 8601, and you're not using that, nor does Misplaced Pages. Look at any date article on Misplaced Pages, you will find them at September 13, not 13 September, grow up and move on. Do something more useful with your life.

Dude, you really need to read and absorb Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style (dates and numbers), where it says
In June 2005, the Arbitration Committee stated that when either of two styles is acceptable, it is inappropriate for an editor to change an article from one to the other without substantial reason. For example, with respect to British date formats as opposed to American it would be acceptable to change from American format to British if the article concerned a British subject. Edit warring over optional styles (such as 14 February and February 14) is unacceptable. If an article has been stable in a given style, it should not be converted without a style-independent reason. Where in doubt, defer to the style used by the first major contributor.
