Topic: Event dates being truncated

The event dates for this record: https://records.nbnatlas.org/occurrence … 5c737efee6 appear to be truncated, but only on this page i.e. not in the actual data.

Event date start    1912-08 Supplied date "26/08/1912"
Event date end    1912-09 Supplied as 06/09/1912

I initially thought the Atlas was getting a higher precision than given, but the dates were supplied as 06/09/1912-26/08/1912 so I assume it's just a display issue.

Re: Event dates being truncated

This seems to be a problem with records having "Day range" date precision.
