Motd page/edit info shows previous month templates, but page/edit info for Potd shows current month templates?
If I click to edit the Commons:Media of the day page, via the normal Edit link, then the "Templates used on this page:" section (near the bottom of the edit page) lists the templates used for the previous month: September.
For example, it shows Template:Motd/2016-09-15 as being used on the page for the current month, even though the preview is instead actually showing Template:Motd/2016-10-15's content.
This is also true if I click Page information.
However, the rendered page and edit preview still display content for the current month: October.
Although, if I repeat all this on the Commons:Picture of the day page, then in the Edit and Page information links show the current month, October.
I would have expected the Motd to say that current month templates are used on its page, not last month templates. Potd does as I expected it should, but I'm not familiar with how this was all set up. Is this an error, or is it intended to be this way? And was this the right place to ask this?

Audio recording of a steam, gas-pumping engine made by Easton & Amos of London, and used by the South Metroplitan Gas Company, Old Kent Road, London from 1864 to the mid 1950s, and now at Thinktank, Birmingham. The engine is started from cold. First, steam is allowed through the cylinders, their drain cocks open, to warm them. The flywheel is rotated by hand, to set the engine in motion, and the recording ends with the engine ticking over at low speed. Recorded as part of a 2015 Wikipedia residency at Thinktank, Birmingham Science Museum.

Notre-Dame animation
Aerial panning shot of destroyed roof of Notre-Dame, showing damage to vaults. The charred remains of the timbers are mostly lying on the vaults, not in the nave; Gothic cathedrals were designed to do this when the roof burned.
I can't seem to figure out if this is the correct pace to post this, or find the relevant discussion; apologies if this is the wrong place. I find the currently-featured animation of Notre-Dame less informative than this aerial panning shot of the roof, which I cropped (sadly, it is watermarked, and more conspicuously than the current animation). The current animation is nice for showing the surroundings, but it was made at an early stage and does not really show the structure of the cathedral, or how the framework in the belfry also partly burned, though it mentions the resulting danger of the bells falling. The framework of the spire is also rooted at the same level as the roof, and while both are encased in lead, there is no roof between them. The lead on the spire was leaky and the spire may have acted as a chimney. I'm thus not sure it makes sense to say that the flames burst through the roof and engulfed the spire.

Nomination: File:Eta porketo.webm
File:Eta porketo.webm The video quality is not great, but it is the audio that is of interest here, so the fact that there is any video at all is a good extra. We have very litte Esperanto content, and this is just beautiful. Uploader: Robin van der Vliet --℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ • ✍ ⏿) 18:14, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the nomination. I just added Esperanto and English subtitles to the file. Robin van der Vliet (talk) 22:44, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- Done Template:Motd/2020-10-05 The reason why I chose that date is because we have 10 fingers in total and 5 on each hand. Poetic! @Robin van der Vliet: If you would be so kind as to add a description in Espeanto, that would be so wonderful. ℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ • ✍ ⏿) 03:34, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

File:Structural-diversity-of-supercoiled-DNA-ncomms9440-s6.ogv We do need more of stuff like this on the front page. The only reservation that I have is that I might be not qualified enough to provide a good enough short description of a file. Maybe somebody else can chime in? --℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ • ✍ ⏿) 07:36, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
- Done Template:Motd/2021-02-28. I have chosen this date, since that is the anniversary of the announcement of "Central Dogma" of molecular biology. Seemed reasonable. Also a little extra time can help more people to translate the messages into more languages, and to help develop this file by adding categories, etc. ℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ • ✍ ⏿) 06:27, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

File:Футажи Минска. Главпочтамт.webm This is a wonderful video footage of Minsk. It is sort of a moving photo, and I feel that it's a shame we don't have more like that, so maybe if we have this on a front page this will encourage more people.

File:Истории омских руферов. Руфтинг в Омске. Главпочтамт.webm This particular video is rather extreme, but it is very intersting, and I hope that nobody will have problems with it.

- Done Template:Motd/2021-05-09, I wanted to make it 8th of May, the end of WW2, but that date was already taken, so I have selected the following day, that makes some sense, as Russia celebrates the end of the war one day late. ℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ • ✍ ⏿) 05:32, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
Nomination: File:Lsf exo chiffres abc.ogv
File:Lsf exo chiffres abc.ogv I want to be honest, the reason why I find this video interesting is because this is the fist video that has been uploaded to Commons. (Maybe others were, but they were deleted). Also sign language should be recognised as a language by most people, and this video helps with that.
