| − | This date template contradicts the epigraphs of The Way of Kings. What this template calls Kakatach, the epigraph names as Kaktach, and what this template calls Jesan, the epigraph names as Jesnan. It seems to me that the naming system is slightly irregular, but it shouldn't be hard to extrapolate the rules here. |

| − | |||
| − | For the week of Kakat: |
||
| − | * Kakates=>Kaktes |
||
| − | * Kakatan=>Kaktan |
||
| − | * Kakatach=>Kaktach |
||
| − | * Kakatev=>Kaktev |
||
| − | * Kakatah=>Kaktah |
||
| − | |||
| − | For the week of Jesan=>Jesnan: |
||
| − | * Jesanes=>Jesnanes |
||
| − | * Jesanan=>Jesnanan |
||
| − | * Jesanach=>Jesnanach |
||
| − | * Jesanev=>Jesnanev |
||
| − | * Jesanah=>Jesnanah |
||
| − | |||
| − | Also: |
||
| − | * Jesesan=>Jesesnan |
||
| − | * Nanesan=>Nanesnan |
||
| − | * Chachesan=>Chachesnan |
||
| − | * Vevesan=>Vevesnan |
||
| − | * Palahesan=>Palahesnan |
||
| − | * Shashesan=>Shashesnan |
||
| − | * Betabesan=>Betabesnan |
||
| − | * Kakesan=>Kakesnan |
||
| − | * Tanatesan=>Tanatesnan |
||
| − | * Ishesan=>Ishesnan |
||

| − | Which comes out to only 20 corrections needed of the 500 days in the year. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Furthermore, I think we should rename this template completely to be called Vorin date, as I don't know of any evidence that this system is used beyond the Vorin nations. [[User:SimonEwok|SimonEwok]] ([[User talk:SimonEwok|talk]]) 17:14, 11 November 2020 (UTC) |

| − | : I think I agree with all the date name changes. As for the template name, I don't think that's necessary. Partially because it's just a template and thus it's okay if it doesn't have an in-world name. Partially because [https://wob.coppermind.net/events/362/#e11145 Brandon has confirmed] that this calendar system has been adopted by a lot of non-Vorin cultures. And it's the only calendar system we've seen. As readers, it is the dominant Rosharan calendar. --[[User:Jofwu|Jofwu]] ([[User talk:Jofwu|talk]]) 12:48, 12 November 2020 (UTC) |
