> Yeah! Two hacks introduced recently in English Wikipedia (and badly
documented), two errors, and now you're thinking about compatiblity elsewhere ?
No. you shoulmd revert this "support", as it is completely UNNEEDED and
generates more problems than what it is supposed to solve.

Exactly. Calling date linking+autformatting as currently implemented a
"feature" is disingenuous.  The ranty earlier message about it being
oh-so-important to preserve all of this and introduce some new <<date>> syntax
(or {{#date}}, I think someone else suggested along the same lines) seems to me
to be missing the point and unnecessarily complicating the issue.
