Since at least 2004, it has been possible for registered users to set a preference regarding the way dates appear to them. Wikilinking all {{nowrap|dates&thinsp;/&thinsp;years}} purely for the use of autoformatting is now discouraged (See [[MOS:UNLINKDATES]]).
Line 102:
Date elements on disambiguation pages and section headings should never be linked; the same applies to quotations, unless the original quote is linked.
