I don't understand why we need another RfC specially on what is called "full date mark up". Is this what is normally known as date autoformatting? People have resoundingly rejected the idea in an RfC already. Does anyone here disagree? If this is referring to DA, I do not agree with the list of disadvantages; nor do I think they're worded in a way that is easily understandable by most WPians.

I though the issues concerned only where year and month-day links might be used. Can we please keep the RfC to what has not already received overwhelming consensus?

The current wording is very confusing to me, and will be the more so for most editors. Tony (talk) 14:15, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
