Remarks

wijinputdate supports two types of formats:
Standard Format and Custom Format.

A standard date and time format string uses a single format specifier to define the text representation of a date and time value.

Possible values for Standard Format are:
"d": ShortDatePattern
"D": LongDatePattern
"f": Full date and time (long date and short time)
"F": FullDateTimePattern
"g": General (short date and short time)
"G": General (short date and long time)
"m": MonthDayPattern
"M": monthDayPattern
"r": RFC1123Pattern
"R": RFC1123Pattern
"s": SortableDateTimePattern
"t": shortTimePattern
"T": LongTimePattern
"u": UniversalSortableDateTimePattern
"U": Full date and time (long date and long time) using universal time
"y": YearMonthPattern
"Y": yearMonthPattern

Any date and time format string that contains more than one character,
including white space, is interpreted as a custom date and time format string. For example:
"mmm-dd-yyyy", "mmmm d, yyyy", "mm/dd/yyyy", "d-mmm-yyyy", "ddd, mmmm dd, yyyy" etc.

Below are the custom date and time format specifiers:

"d": The day of the month, from 1 through 31.
"dd": The day of the month, from 01 through 31.
"ddd": The abbreviated name of the day of the week.
"dddd": The full name of the day of the week.
"m": The minute, from 0 through 59.
"mm": The minute, from 00 through 59.
"M": The month, from 1 through 12.
"MM": The month, from 01 through 12.
"MMM": The abbreviated name of the month.
"MMMM": The full name of the month.
"y": The year, from 0 to 99.
"yy": The year, from 00 to 99
"yyy": The year, with a minimum of three digits.
"yyyy": The year as a four-digit number
