Continuing the discussion from [Year format on abbreviated post dates not clear](https://meta.discourse.org/t/year-format-on-abbreviated-post-dates-not-clear/29198):

I agree with this thread as in the UK, this reads to me as 13th February 2016:

Can the administrator change it so that dates are shown in the full locale of the current user, 13/02/2013? Or 13th Feb 2013?
