:BC/AD is a religious nomenclature that should not be used in modern cross-cultural exchanges. We don't want to alienate users to the wiki. Most dates are Imperial in any case. 19:45, 15 March 2006 (UTC)~

BCE/CE? (2006)[edit]

Is there a reason this abbreviation is being used rather than the BC/AD used in actual Traveller products that feature Terran dates?19:15, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

BC/AD is a religious nomenclature that should not be used in modern cross-cultural exchanges. We don't want to alienate users to the wiki. Most dates are Imperial in any case. 19:45, 15 March 2006 (UTC)~

If you don't like it, change it. Just make sure you get the pre/postfix correct. Dcorrin 14:17, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
