==possiblle bugs==

==Nice idea, but does it work?==

My [[Special:Preferences]] have the date presentation set to "2001-01-15T16:12:34". Yet when template is passed '''<code><nowiki>{{Dts|15|January|2001}}</nowiki></code>''' I get the output of "15 January 2001". Surely I should be seeing the same output as what '''<code><nowiki>[[January 15]] [[2001]]</nowiki></code>''' would give me, which is "2001-01-15". What's gone wrong? --[[User:Oscarthecat|Oscarthecat]] 16:46, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

:I fixed it, it was due to a blank space in the year link: <nowiki>[[12 April]] [[2007 ]]</nowiki> gives [[12 April]] [[2007 ]].--[[User:Patrick|Patrick]] 07:25, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

::Thanks for the quick response Patrick. Yes, now working great. --[[User:Oscarthecat|Oscarthecat]] 20:32, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Great work this weekend! I noticed it doesn't work with dates that are both known and unkown-- that is "2001" and "July 4, 2007" and "August 2006" will not sort chronologically. Just try sorting the examples on the [[Template:dts/doc|doc page]]. —[[User:Wikibarista|Wikibarista]] 00:28, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
