I agree, I think the date conversion formulas are correct, but on the right side of these year pages it does it wrong. This one, for example, shows AD 4523 when the formula makes it come out 4518. This is only the Solomani date that is in question, the Vilani date appears spot on. I didn't check the others.

Notes (2018)[edit]

It seems like the Solomani date conversion on all of these year pages is off by 5 years. The canonical year 0 in MT: The Imperial Encyclopedia is AD 4518. Does another source say 4523? --Matthew Kerwin Baron Thon 13:11, 20 May 2018 (EDT)
