=== Full dates work. Year must be on the end ===
This shows that any full date works ''without'' '''data-sort-type=date''' in the table. Month-day-year or day-month-year. If a number for a day is missing, date sorting is broken. Abbreviated months work too. The year must be on the end
Sorting works correctly in

'''data-sort-type=date''' in the header for the date column allows sorting to work for all entries not missing a day number. So it is good to add it in case editors forget day numbers for some entries. That can be fixed later. The rest of the dates will sort correctly by date. Test date sorting below. '''Some entries below are missing the day number.''' They end up at the top or bottom of the ''data-sort-type=date'' list upon sorting. The list below without ''data-sort-type=date'' does not sort by date.
