using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;
using System.Text;
namespace PrototypeHelp.Models
{

    public class DocumentModel
    {   
        public int documentID { get; set; }
        public String Title { get; set; }
        public DateTime DateCreated { get; set; }
        public String Description { get; set; }
        public int authorID { get; set; }
        public String AuthorName { get; set; }
        public int categoryID { get; set; }
        public String Category { get; set; }
        public int topicID { get; set; }
        public String Topic { get; set; }
        [AllowHtml]

use this in your model definition for date 

[DataType(DataType.Date)]
[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", ApplyFormatInEditMode = true)]

To display the date you can either decorate the property with a DisplayFormat attribute. This value is the format in which you want to display the date.

for example

public class DocumentModel
{
    [DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:yyyy/MM/dd}")]
    public DateTime DateCreated { get; set; }
    ...
}

or alternatively, in the view you can specify the format in the ToString() function.

@Model.DateCreated.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd")
