Date styles

[edit]

Hi, I'd like to ask you to please refrain from arbitrarily changing date styles from "AD/BC" to "CE/BCE" or vice versa, as you did here and apparently on a couple of previous occasions. We have a guideline, WP:ERA, designed to keep these conventions stable within each article and avoid useless reverting. Both conventions are generally acceptable on Wikipedia, and editors should not attempt to arbitrarily switch between them without consensus and good reason. Thank you, – Fut.Perf. 10:14, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, no problem. I felt BCE and CE are better, since they're secular, and there's no need to have BC and AD anywhere. Only reason to object to BCE CE is if you're a Christian. But, I'll follow the guidelines from now on. Knightplex (talk) 10:51, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
