Enter dates in d mmm yyyy format - case doesn't matter. WeRelate automatically transforms any date it can interpret into d Mmm yyy format (e.g., 4 Sep 1753). It supports standard GEDCOM modifiers (Bef, Aft, Bet/and, From/to, Cal, Abt, Est), which it automatically transforms to mixed case. WeRelate supports dual dating - if you are entering dates prior to 1752 and aren't familiar with dual dating (d Mmm yyy/yy), plese read Month number and dual dating.
Proxy dates (e.g. christening date as proxy for birth date, or probate date as proxy for death date) should not be entered in the field that they are a proxy for, but should be entered as their own fact.
Source citations should give the date supported by the source in case the date in the date field is changed.
