Template talk:YMD to ISO

Why are Wikipedia templates not able to convert a date in a YMD format (e.g. 1899 July 6)

[edit]

Why can't the templates able to convert YMD formats, is it because WP:DATEFORMAT is unacceptable to use 1899 July 6, is that why?


Example


{{date|1899 July 6}} should output 6 July 1899 instead it returns 1899 July 6.

{{date|1899 July 6|DMY}} should output 6 July 1899 instead it returns 1899 July 6.

{{date|1899 July 6|MDY}} should output July 6, 1899 instead it returns 1899 July 6.

{{date|1899 July 6|ISO}} should output 1899-07-06 instead it returns 1899 July 6.

Nonexistent dates aren't converted, remain unchanged

[edit]

When I try entering a date like {{YMD to ISO|2012 April 31}} it will output as 2012 April 31 remaining unchanged, well it doesn't get corrected to either 2012-04-30 or 2012-05-01 2600:2B00:B705:A600:0:0:0:1001 (talk) 21:47, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
