I'm talking about something like <<DATE>> and then it would do autoformatting of the date and it would also assist in the metadata contained in the page as well, and also have the ability to force a certain style and define date names as well (eg: <<2008-12-25|f=Friday, 25 December 2008|name=Christmas Day (2008)>>)
<<2008-12-25|f=Friday, 25 December 2008|name=Christmas Day (2008)>>
That is rather complex. Most editors are not going to want to type that.
True enough, only 2008-12-25 is an independent variable. The rest can be derived from it. There are algorithms for determining the day of the week. When did Christmas last fall on a day other than 25 December?
