User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Time Lord Academy/@comment-188432-20130223212049 asks for a cover date, yet for reasons totally inexplicable, many editors don't provide this. So let's examine what a cover date is.

It's the date on the cover. It's not the date the magazine was released. Or the date it "was published'". It's the date on the cover.

Many of our magazine pages are thus wrong or at least confusing.

Also, when giving a date, don't link the month individually.

It's important that we keep our pages consistent on this niggly little point or else we won't be providing much of a service to our readers.
