#'''Support'''. Matching my comments on dates. Leave the decision up to editors. If you want to achieve consistency, it's best done by getting rid of all of these bothersome volunteer editors and having a small group of appointed editors who makes all the decisions and follow all of the rules. If you want to continue the free-for-all of anyone can edit, then you have to also accept some free-for-all formatting. I'm a whole lot less distracted by a sea of blue links than I am by the zillions of footnotes. [[User:Fijagdh|Fijagdh]] ([[User talk:Fijagdh|talk]]) 21:38, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
#I would almost go with Option 3, but if a year link is relevant twice or more in an article it'd be good to link it twice; this is not the case for month/days. Therefore, I '''support''' this option, seeing as it's the most likely way such would be encouraged.[[User:Simplebutpowerful|Simple]]<sub>[[User talk:Simplebutpowerful|but]]</sub>[[Special:Contributions/Simplebutpowerful|powerful]] 00:22, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
