German Date Format

[Alluidh]

Hi

This is only a very, very small suggestion, but maybe it is possible to do

If you create a new language you have to define the "Date Format". Until now it is
Aug 22, 2013
August 22, 2013
22 Aug 2013
22 August 2013
22/8/13
8/22/13

In Germany it is standardised to use (Datumsformate nach ISO 8601:2004)
22. Aug 2013
22. August 2013

Yes, I know to use "Other" with

j. F Y

but maybe it is possible to get this included into the choices

Thanks a lot

Just use Other.

 

[Alluidh]

If you are able to read I know to use other, but in Germany it is very friendly and helpful to ask for a suggestion and sometimes, maybe sometimes, it gets a positive result.

I did read, and it doesn't matter. Just use Other.

Amaury, this is a valid suggestion and should be treated as such. Yes, he can use Other, but the suggestion is to include more options that are used by another date standard.

I never said it wasn't valid, just that it doesn't matter, in my opinion. I probably should have worded that better. Apologies.

great suggestion


this missing "dot" has bothered me since 3 years ago, but I was just too lazy to create a suggestion for it......

You could have added the dot at any time over the past three years.

It's included into the next [Du] and in the upcoming [Sie] Version
(and some other nice new things)

 

[Lemminator]

With that dot does it mean 22nd?

 

[Alluidh]

Yes, it does. It's a rule for time

Good rule!
