I have my user preferences set to render dates/times as "19:23 23 January 2006," for example, but when I create a page using the [[Month day]], [[year]] format, the page renders exactly the way I entered it instead of rewriting the date in the output according to what I have set in my user preferences (i.e, the above appears as "Monday day, year" and [[2006-01-01]] would appear as "2006-01-01" instead of "1 January 2006" as I have set in my preferences. NOTE: URL specified above is not available 24/7.
I should add, this is using IIS on Windows XP Pro.
This is an optional feature, off by default. Make sure you've set $wgUseDynamicDates = true; in your LocalSettings.php.
