#27206 closed Bug (fixed)

Incorrect DATE_FORMAT for et locale

Description

https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/conf/locale/et/formats.py seems to specify
'j F Y'
but correct would be
'j. F Y'
as in Estonian dates are considered to be ordinal numbers and should be followed by a period.

I'm unsure what the authoritative resource nowadays is but such date is grammatically wrong without a period.

Wikipedia refers to http://www.eki.ee/books/ekk09/index.php?p=2&p1=10 for Estonian, which confirms this report.

It would be nice to completely review formats.py for Estonian, as it looks like partial currently.
