Question: The dates section of the MetaDex says "dates should be written out fully, e.g. 31st May 2006," but the Wikipedia Manual says to avoid using ordinal suffixes (the "st" on 31st, for example), so... which format do we use? --Mirmadon 19:36, 31 May 2006 (CDT)

That part of the article is a template. you can find it here. Also, we are currently talking about proper date mentions here. And you are right the "st", "nd", and "st" aren't acceptable in the wikipedia guidelines.--Jacob 13:30, 1 Jun 2006 (CDT)
