			[[HTML5]] uses both a subset of ISO 8601 for dates, times, durations for the <code><time></code> element, as well as an extended (and more human friendly) duration format.

			== FAQ ==
			=== Why hyphens in dates ===
			Q: Must I use the hyphens?[https://twitter.com/edburns/status/368063860835897344]

			A: You <em>should</em> always use hyphens in ISO 8601 dates because that makes them more readable, and thus more human friendly.

			Also, using hyphens helps clearly distinguish different uses for different granularities of dates, e.g.:
			* 2013-08-19 - just the day
			* 2013-08 - the whole month
			* 2013 - the entire year

	==Issues==		==Issues==
	* How should dates before the common era be marked up? [[User:AndyMabbett\|Andy Mabbett]]		None currently.
	** What are the use-cases? Link to *-examples page? - [[User:~~Tantek\|Tantek]]~~
	* If a web page is created or edited by a non-technical human, it is unfriendly to expect them to work in ISO date format. [[~~User:CharlesBelov\|Charles Belov]]~~		Resolved issues: [[iso-8601-issues-resolved]].
	** ISO dates are more readable/usable by people globally than any one locale-~~specific format, thus it is more friendly globally to use and ask humans to edit ISO~~ 8601 ~~dates than asking them to try to read/write all the odd and quirky locale~~-~~specific formats.~~ - ~~[[User:Tantek\|Tantek~~]]
