Myself and Skittles the Hog have come to a disagreement over how the dates in the Home Era section in the Individuals infobox should be laid out.

Skittle the Hog goes for this method: 20th - 21st century (example here) whereas I prefer the full dates to be written out as such: 20th century - 21st century (example here) Originally, I had put <br> to separate the two dates (example here), until Skittles commented saying that it shows continual living. I agree with this, but still felt that it should show the whole date, as it looks much more presentable, and throughout this wiki, the dates are linked in full, rather than shorted i.e. 20th (consistency). How should the date be laid out? Should we take a vote? Mini-mitch\talk 00:35, February 14, 2011 (UTC)
