just to be clear in many cases i personally added a link pair like july in radio to an article so i created that link pair i did not realize that it broke autoformatting and i acknowledge that date autoformatting is now deprecated and is being removed by the bot also to be clear lightbot is converting my example above to july which created a new yet deprecated autoformatted date link pair and removes the useful on topic link to in radio given that there is no consensus for an urgent removal of date autoformatting i'm simply asking that the bot not undo date in radio links if it can't as you note handle them properly
