Date format[edit]
I noticed you are clarifying date formats. Thank you! Please be aware that your dates are not grammatically correct :( But not to worry, as the fix is simple! You have been formatting dates like so: "AD 120".
The fix? AD/CE (whatever one you want to pick, just make it consistent across each page) should come AFTER the year so it instead read like so: "120 AD".
Thank you for your time! jayhawker6 (talk) 21:24, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
- @344agg21: For what it's worth, "AD" goes before the year stated (following latin convention of Anno Domini), while BC goes after the year stated, following english convention. Specific quote from that article,
the year AD 1 immediately follows the year 1 BC
That said, the edits to Roman emperors are redundant - other than Augustus all emperors's dates are AD. By convention any year given without a qualifier is assumed to be in the common era. BC is required when it's before that, while AD/CE is not. Regards, Tarl N. (discuss) 05:45, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
