I have made this table sortable. The dates would need to be in format to allow sorting by date, I have had a look on the wiki help but don't understand. Can anyone help? I think "31 January - 2 February 2013" could just be shown as "January 2013" - thoughts? Thanks--Patrick Hearn (talk) 11:07, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

The only way I could think to do a date range as sortable would be something like "2016/01/31 - 2016/02/02", as that date format allows sorting properly without special date-specific handling. --Danny252 (talk) 15:23, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
