Some of the day pages' names don't match up with the rest, eg. "May 1" as opposed to the correct "May 01", or "April16" as opposed to "April 16". Is this going to cause problems with the frontpage module's day-to-day progression? if so the offending pages will need moving.

Date format
Some of the day pages' names don't match up with the rest, eg. "May 1" as opposed to the correct "May 01", or "April16" as opposed to "April 16". Is this going to cause problems with the frontpage module's day-to-day progression? if so the offending pages will need moving. Xentrilus 13:09, 8 November 2009 (CET)
- Old question is old, but for the record the pages that don't follow the correct date format won't work. I've tagged misnamed templates for deletion. --Anonymax 18:41, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

Bluetexting Complete
I decided to try to fill in the last few dates that were still blank. As it turns out, there were significant events on some of them, although I had to dig around to find them. I wasn't sure how to edit the Usage Notes for the Template to reflect the change in status.
