            Bug ID: 131332
           Summary: HELP: replace custom date formats with ISO 8601 to
                    stop promoting ambiguous formats
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

In Help, e.g. [1], we have date strings that use non-ISO date formats. Unless
there is a strong reason to use such format (like when various formats are
described/discussed explicitly), it's best to always use ISO 8601 unambiguous
date strings, to promote use of international standards helping people
understand each other.

The task is to find and replace non-ISO dates in Help with their ISO 8601
counterparts - where applicable.

Regular expressions like "\d\d?/\d\d?/\d{2,4}" (including double quotes) might
be useful when searching them in help repo.
