Date format

I would also like to suggest changing the date format of this article to the DMY format (e.g. 6 June 2020 as opposed to June 6, 2020). The DMY format seems more international and more suitable for a "global" article like. Also DMY simply makes more sense as it goes from smallest to highest.

At the village pump, I've presented a proposal to establish a standard to use DMY in general for all articles about "generic" years. The discussion got kind of messy however, and I'll propaly restart it at some point. In the meantime, I would like it to create consensus about changing it for specifically this and all other nine articles about the 2010s--Marginataen (talk) 16:12, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Best Year Ever?

I feel like it's worth noting in this article that there is a social media trend of regarding 2016 as an amazing year, particularly during its summer. Why? No one knows, but I felt it too. Crswong888 (talk) 14:21, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
