Date Format

In-game timestamps are formatted from largest to smallest unit of time measurement; YYYY/MM/DD:hh:mm:ss, where YYYY is year, MM is month, DD is day, hh is hour, mm is minutes, and ss is seconds.

YYYY/MM/DD is the standard date format to adhere to for infoboxes. This is to avoid confusion due to different standard practices between countries. Articles should generally use the Month DD, YYYY format. Applying a distinction between in-fiction dates real world dates is vital (maybe we should make a format rule for that with the eventual timeline?)
