This is a template
I feel i should have mentioned this before, but i now feel really silly about it all. this is a template, i.e if you type in {{Unspoken Rules}}, it will show all the text placed on this page. my apologies on not saying this earlier. :(--Jacob 21:57, 30 May 2006 (CDT)

On showing the date
this has been on my mind for awhile...i've always shown the dates as month/day/year, but i've noticed Macbeth is using day/month/year. we need to have a decided style, and i'm glad it's finally being brought up. hmmmm...if an example on Neopets could be presented (how they present the dates), would it be alright to follow suit?--Jacob 21:57, 30 May 2006 (CDT)
- New Features lists their records as date then month. Although come to think of it, the archive lists them as month then date. Still, they both use 'st's, 'nd's, 'rd's and 'th's. --Macbeth 09:46, 31 May 2006 (CDT)
