Usage
Add {{When}}
after a seasonal reference that is used as a time to indicate that the time period is ambiguous and would be clearer by being reworded. Seasons are local phenomena and their usage as a substitute for dates, month names and the like is an example of systemic bias.
This usage often manifests itself in phrasing like the following:
- (some event happened) in the (season) of (year).
- (something was completed) by [the] (season) [of (year)].
Most commonly, such phrasing uses Northern Hemisphere temperate zone seasons interchangeably with month names or other times, and this can be the source of confusion for people in the tropics or in the opposite hemisphere.
