  Right. Which we basically have 
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Date_formatting>; even though I would 
say you should not choose “my date format”, you should choose your language. 
Which you do, obviously. And it is completely obvious what date was meant by 
any Czech-speaking user who wrote “7. 1. 1967”.

  We don’t do i18n based on geolocation, I believe. And I see no reason why we 
should.
