Description Amir E. Aharoni 2012-05-12 11:54:02 UTC
The current date selector on Special:CentralNotice is hand-crafted and this has several problems:
* It may require separate maintenance.
* It assumes the USA order of month, day, year.
* With an RTL interface language the order becomes even stranger: year, day, month.

It should be replaced by the jQuery datepicker, which is already used in at least two extension, is well maintained by its own and has pretty good internationalization.
Comment 1 Krinkle 2012-05-13 23:04:00 UTC
Rephrasing to specific task of changing to to use jquery.ui.datepicker module (instead of "a jQuery datepicker").
Comment 2 Adam Wight 2012-08-07 19:13:20 UTC
Here's an attempted fix.  The date should be correctly internationalized, thanks for the report!
