Forum:MediaWiki date question...

I just logged on to Wikia and noticed Sarah's recent post. She said she had been in to wikis for a while now. I was curious to see when she had started out here. I looked up next to her username and it said "1,045 edits since 13. Oktober 2009". How did she get it so it said '13. Oktober 2009'? I presume she had the help of MediaWiki but how did she do it? -- Will k  (talk &middot; contrib) 06:52, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what you mean. The amount of edits or the fact that it said "Oktober" and not "October"? Duskey ( talk ) 12:32, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oktober is the correct spelling in some languages other than English (US, GB, AU, etc. ...). -- 12:56, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

@Duskey: The fact that it says 'Oktober'.

@Jrooksjr: So why does it say it here if here is English? Is there a way to change it? If so, how??????
 * That date is pulled from the user's preferences (their language + date preference, eg 29 May 2010 vs 2010 May 29) Having said that, I can't replicate it with her page (perhaps she changed it, aka she was testing another language and had it set then). Regardless, that's how it's pulled. Joey (talk) 10:42, September 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * I believe it's a bug where the page is cached how the last person saw it (depending on their language settings). At least that's what someone mentioned in #wika on IRC. Duskey ( talk ) 12:04, September 1, 2010 (UTC)
