The latest deployment of InternetArchiveBot seems to have started converting English dates in citations in Cantonese Wikipedia by substituting the month name rather than converting into a valid Cantonese date format. (Example)
I've tried removing the English-style date formatting strings on the IABot runpage but to no avail.
When IABot encounters a valid English date string ("27 Aug 2020", "27 August 2020", "Aug 27, 2020" etc), it should either:
- Replace the whole string with a Cantonese date string (2020年8月27號) or ISO date (2020-08-27); or
- Leave the whole date string untouched.
And not substitute the month name into Cantonese.
