Dates

When writing about numbers that appear in a Splunk UI, duplicate them exactly as the UI displays. Otherwise, follow these guidelines.

Use numerals for numbers associated with dates, even if the number is less than 10. Spell out the day of the week and the month. Don't use ordinals, such as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and so on. See the following examples:

  • April 22
  • Monday, April 22
  • Monday, April 22, 2019
  • April 2019
