Good morning Feldmahler. Here is the first bug since the update

When adding new composer, of which only the year is known and the month and day fields are left empty; the following message is returned: I have put january first as temporary dates on this page: http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Stanchinsky%2C_Alexei

Oh, and somewhat related, so I'm not opening a new thread (hope that's OK): would it be possible to remove both the question mark and the dash from the dates of living composers? Maybe it's just me, but it always strikes me as slightly macabre to have place holders for the death dates of living people...

Peter: Thanks for the report, will fix right now
Leonard: Hahaha... fine I just got lazy...

Both should be fixed Please test and report any problems.

Does bug persist or is it a mistake?
Peter has just corrected Khym Charles date of death in 1819 ,but ha died after 1819.....
Pietro Tassistro lived in the first half of 19° century , how can we write this?
Greetings

This has nothing to do with the bug. That 1819 is concerning another problem. If you don't use a year of death, the copyright template assumes that the composer still lives and gives wrong copyright messages. Therefore, I entered 1819 as an estimated date and put that in the comments of the composer.

One way is to just use the old |Birth Date= and |Death Date=, which will abort the tag processing
