[edit] Dates and numbers in this article
Wikipedia policy is clear on the use of Eras in articles:
- Both the BCE/CE era names and the BC/AD era names are acceptable, but be consistent within an article. Normally you should use plain numbers for years in the Common Era, but when events span the start of the Common Era, use AD or CE for the date at the end of the range (note that AD precedes the date and CE follows it). For example, 1 BC–AD 1 or 1 BCE–1 CE.
It is up to the author(s) of an article to determine the dating system to be used and there must be consistency with each article. In this case, for a non-Christian topic in a non-Christian region of the world, BCE/CE would seem to make the most sense. Sunray 19:49, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
- Sigh*, RickK has reverted and until one or more authors of this article indicate a preference for BCE/CE, it will have to remain BC/AD. Sunray 07:07, 2005 May 23 (UTC)
