Description

Currently the events page uses YYYY-MM-DD which has two problems. First, the year is first, so if you scan down the left edge you see only years which is not very useful. Second, there is month/day ambiguity between US and the rest of the world, so I'm not sure whether this is April 9th or September 4th.

Current: 2014-04-09
Desired: 09 April 2014

Research direction

Start at the events page and locate where dates are rendered. Compare the current YYYY-MM-DD output with the requested 09 April 2014 format, then verify that event dates consistently use the new ordering and unambiguous month name.
