Date wikification
Here's the policy on dates: Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style (dates and numbers).
Generally link full dates so that the editor/reader's preference settings will display their chosen format.
Basically, wikify dates of the kind:
- MONTH DAY, YEAR
- MONTH DAY
But not:
- MONTH YEAR
because there is no browser display-preference benefit. LInk on this occasion when there is something that is actually significant about that MONTH YEAR. (Meaning rarely)
Formatting references for easier editing
I went through the text and cleaned out misplaced periods, spaces, quotation marks and the like associated with the text near references. I reformatted how the <ref> and </ref> tags related to the text so that they can be found with greater ease in the editing screen. Here is what I suggest when people add a reference. The good result of this is that you can locate the end of any reference easily, since the closing </ref> is on the first column. This should make it easier to add or edit the text of the article while noticing where the end and start of each reference is. Comments invited.
some text at the end of the sentence.NOSPACE<ref>NEWLINE
body of reference material hereSPACE-NEWLINE
</ref>
Start of next sentence.
The result looks like this while editing:
some text at the end of the sentence.<ref>
body of reference material here
</ref>
Start of next sentence.
