~~OK, so there's special code in {{Ambox}} that checks for {{subst:Date}}.~~

Once I look at this saved page, I see {{subst:DATE}} has actually been changed to "date=June 2013". (C.f. {{subst:CURRENTDATE}}:"03:01, Wednesday June 12, 2013 (UTC)") Note also {{DATE}}:"date={{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}", ~~which will be identical when I save, but the difference is it~~ isn't substed ~~in the preview~~ until the template page is used (transcribed).
