Dates format

Explain the problem as you see it

When I'm using daily notes and would like to jump to specific day and also when I'm looking on calendar. and notice a date format.

We have dates in daily notes as Week 50.

In the case of calendars, we have syntax of date as "month day year" in the format.
Example Jan 21 2024.

Why is this a problem for you?

For me is not consistent. I don't use that format of date, I need to check in web or use additional tools to check that. What date exacly we have. Aslo need to thing what format is using and what a date we exacly have. From my point of view It's not intuitive

For day to day I using date such us 09.11.2024 - 15.11.2024. That is really specific and easy to understand by my brain.

Amount of people don't using a week number as a reference of date. It's not common. Only if we work in the corporation or similar thing.

Suggest a solution

Add different view data to Week name in Daily notes in specific year instead o week 50 (09.11.2024 - 15.11.2024) or add possibility to change that in easy way as user would like to have see a dates.

Means add a additional formats for dates in addition to the "number of week" in the daily notes.

Same think to calendar. In calendar might add additional format to show dates as example:
| Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | and so on... |
| 09.12.2024 | 10.12.2024| 11.12.2024 | and so on... |

For other users might be needed different dates format that I didn't thought. It's good to keep in mind.
