Description Olivier Delaune 2014-07-26 16:02:41 UTC
Hello,
first of all, I apologize if I do not fill the bug report correctly (component, version, ...) and if I create a duplicate. It is my first contribution on the bugzilla and I am a bit lost among all the components...

Anyway, here is the issue.
On Wikidata if you contribute as IP (not logged), choose a locale different of English (for example choose French)
If you do so, most of the interface is translated in French :D The problem is it is not the case for everything. The easiest way to see it is to add a the date property (P585) and try to add a valid date written in the language you chose. For example, in French, you can type "15 juillet 2014". I get systematically "The time value is malformed." Yet, if I type "15 july 2014", the date is valid. After validation, it is displayed as "15 juillet 2014".

Could you fix this issue so that we can add a date in our native language if we are not logged? Thank you in advance.

Thanks for taking the time to report this!

On https://www.wikidata.org/ without being logged in, under "Language select" in the sidebar, I set "francais".

Does this problem not happen when you are logged in?
