Category:Use mdy dates

Wikipedia articles that use mm dd yyyy date formats, whether by application of the first main contributor rule or by virtue of close national ties to the subject belong in this category. Use  to add an article to this category. See MOSNUM.

This system of tagging/categorisation is used as a status monitor of all articles that use dd mm yyyy date formats, and not as a clean up. After being tagged, usually manually, and bearing in mind article evolution, a bot can be sent around to clean up formatting after, say, 12 months have elapsed. The bot, yet to be written, would correct any new introductions since its last visit, and would also put or update the visit date on the Use mdy dates template.
