As you mention Uzbek Wikipedia, was this discussed there? Do they have guidelines on the matter?
The change wouldn't affect only Wikipedia, though, and it's not the only stakeholder: fixing summary.

There was no proper discussion, although users write according to the rules, e.g. here: https://uz.wikipedia.org/wiki/O%CA%BBzbekcha_Vikipediya
Nonetheless opened a discussion at village pump: https://uz.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipediya:Forum#Sana_va_o.CA.BBnli_kasrlar

Removed shellpolicy keyword. Date formating is set in MessagesXx.php files of MediaWiki core.

Can you clarify this?

The file to change for this request is the corresponding file for this language in the folder https://git.wikimedia.org/tree/mediawiki%2Fcore.git/HEAD/languages%2Fmessages

How shall we proceed?

If you (or anybody else) would like to create a software patch against MediaWiki core to fix this problem, please see

• http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_access
• http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial

Please note that providing help with Git/Gerrit is out of scope for this specific bug report.
