In Finnish language months are written lowercase, but at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Notifications?uselang=fi they are written as "15. Heinäkuuta 2016", when they should be "15. heinäkuuta 2016". When I look at the source code the month looks correct there, so I think there's something that should be fixed in CSS somewhere.
A solution needs to be found that allows capitalization style for each language to be expressed as appropriate.
1.28.0-wmf.11 displays months not capitalized when a week day or today/yesterday is displayed (was addressed in T137634: Day names are in English and not translatables on Special:Notifications)
However, months are still capitalized when there are no weekdays ( - the underlined months in the screenshots should not be capitalized.
Change 300683 had a related patch set uploaded (by Catrope):
Follow-up d47f0bd3: only capitalize the first letter of date titles on Special:Notifications
Change 300683 merged by jenkins-bot:
Follow-up d47f0bd3: only capitalize the first letter of date titles on Special:Notifications
Note that CSS is a completely inadequate way to handle casing of dates. If MediaWiki doesn't provide the translations you need with the correct case, CLDR has all the options.
Checked in betalabs 1.28.0-alpha (58ea3e0)
Months names are displayed according to their position in the label.
Non-capitalized - since the month name comes after the date and the weekday name. e.g. "11. Červenec 2016" (production) vs "11. červenec 2016" (in betalabs)
The screenshots show non-capitalized month names (checked for uselang=ru, cs, fi and en and de for comparison).
