Hello users! It's recently come to my attention that when we drafted up the manual of style a couple months back, we neglected to discuss date formats. I've looked around the Wiki and I've seen the following:

I'm going to use the Frozen Fever release date as an example since it's coming out soon ^^

13 March 2015

As you can see, it's a confusing mess having this many formats, so I'm proposing choosing a standard one to be used at all times. I'm inclined towards the "13 March 2015" format since it is not confusing (no chance of mixing up numbers for months with days, i.e. the formats denoted with a *), and it doesn't need commas. Yet, Frozen has American origins, so I can see the rationale for using the "March 13, 2015" format. Let me know what you think! :)
