Contributor guide
Research direction
Start in Admin > Formatting and reproduce the issue by changing Date style to “7 January 2018,” then inspect the date separator behavior. Done means the separator changes from M/D/YYYY to D/M/YYYY for that style, matching the behavior of “7/1/2018”; the issue names no source file or test to run.
