Month and date wrong order in Danish

Closed this issue · 4 comments

Hi
It might be my install that is faulty. But after updating to the most recent commit of biblatex and biblatex-apa, it prints the month and day in the wrong order. It used to be in the correct order.

It goes for both dates in the picture. URL date and online date.

As for URL retrieval date (example 1):
In Danish it should be "DAY. MONTH YEAR" - including the period after the day.

As for periodials (example 2):
YEAR, DATE. MONTH

Can you pull the latest biblatex-apa commit? Looks like this was a mistake from a wider-scope fix for year divisions that was implemented.

Hi

Almost. As for the URL date it needs a period after DAY and a space. I know APA wants a comma before the year, but it just looks wrong when the date is written in international format DD MM YYYY. Of course this is for APA to decide, but if I could decide I would remove the comma. Like this: 16. februar 2022,

As for the date on the website, the comma is in the wrong position. Needs to be after YEAR and then a missing period after DAY. Like this: 2020, 10. september

Can you try this now with the latest commit? I still need to test all the lbx changes for the next release so this is making me do it earlier ...

Perfetto. Problem solved.
