    Cycle the date-holding parameters in passed table date_parameters_list through check_date() to check compliance with MOS:DATE. For all valid dates, check_date() returns
    Joins a sequence of strings together while checking for duplicate separation
    true and values for anchor_year (used in CITEREF identifiers) and COinS_date (used in the COinS metadata).  The |date= parameter test is unique.  This function only
    characters.
    accepts anchor_year and COinS_date results from the |date= parameter test and |date= is the only date-holding parameter that is allowed to contain the no-date keywords
    "n.d." or "nd" (without quotes).
     
    Unlike most error messages created in this module, only one error message is created by this function. Because all of the date holding parameters are processed serially,
    a single error message is created as the dates are tested.
