Date Format
Distinction between in-fiction dates and non-fiction dates should be a priority.
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 containing fictional dates such as character birthdays.
DD Month, YYYY for infoboxes, citations, and website access dates that are non-fictional dates.
This is to avoid confusion due to different standard practices between countries. Article text should generally use the Month DD, YYYY or Month YYYY format for readability.
While this is the general rule, there may be exceptions, such as direct quotes from a given source.
