Due to Niklas Laxström's fix for Bug 5767, the {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} variable no longer functions correctly in the Vietnamese localization. The written-out month names ("tháng Một" through "Tháng Mười hai") should only be used in the interface when the user has specified "09:12, ngày 8 tháng Tư năm 2001" as their preferred date format. Because dates in the *content* cannot yet be personalized according to this preference, they should remain in the "09:12, ngày 8 tháng 4 năm 2001" format that they have been in. That is, the month should be represented by [[MediaWiki:Jan]] through [[MediaWiki:Dec]]. The written-out month names should probably be converted to use [[MediaWiki:January]] through [[MediaWiki:December]], but those messages would first have to be changed to use the written-out names rather than the numberals. Also, switching to {{CURRENTMONTH}} is not an acceptable solution, because it includes a trailing zero.
Also, come to think of it, the written-out names should be completely lowercase (including in the preferences), to be consistent with [[MediaWiki:Sunday]] through [[MediaWiki:Saturday]]. (But Sunday through Saturday have yet to be translated in our increasingly outdated language file.)
Original behaviour of magic word restored in trunk.
