Dates and times
To account for internationalization and inclusivity of all locales, use the ISO-8601 (YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss) standard when writing dates and times as much as possible.
Since our readership is international, keep date formats international.
When mentioning dates in text, spell them out:
- On Tuesday, May 19, attackers targeted the company's servers.
- On February 11th, 2010, the company went public.
For graphs, charts, and other visual assets use the ISO-8601 (YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss) standard.
