[WIN-3.0.1] Custom metadata type "date": hint text is wrong

Scrivener Scrivener for Windows

This bug is related to the ITA language pack of Scrivener. I took me a while to me to understand why this wont work:
This

should be formatted to something like “thursday, 2021”, but instead I get “thursday,”
The hint text suggests to use “aa” for the year portion of the date. Then, I thought about “year” being usually expressed as “yy” and changing the format to “EE, yyyy” finally worked.

So, to keep it short, the language pack incorrectly translates the year format.

Thanks! That looks like a problem in the help text, as I would imagine the actual date syntax doesn’t change depending on the interface language. That would be a bit chaotic.
