Comment:

 I think that's the problem of your format string. Basically, you are
 asking: "Show me the month of that date (F) and then the year
 corresponding to the ISO week for that date (o)". So you are juxtaposing
 two values which don't make sense together. You should use 'Y' for the
 year in this case.

 We could add a note in the documentation for `o` (at least "See also
 `Y`"), because people might browse the list of formatters
 (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/ref/templates/builtins/#date) and
 stop at the first letter that match their initial intention, without
 understanding the real meaning of `o`.
