Huh, a reference to a specific BC year. Funny how that happens. (GRAPHIC: The Time Hotel [+]Loading...["The Time Hotel (illustration)"])

Pretty simple forum here: it has been long-standing policy/precedent (not exactly sure where the policy is, I tried checking and couldn't find it) that BC years don't get their own pages, seemingly* since template:Timeline doesn't work well with them. I... find this utterly absurd, especially considering pages like 89/Feather/50 - it'd be nice if the template worked with it, but we shouldn't refuse to properly cover BC years just because a template doesn't work with it, especially since the template isn't exactly essential to the page's functioning.

I think these pages should follow the naming scheme of "[number]BC", so for example "1800BC" or "9BC".

* I think I heard this somewhere, but I can't remember where and can't verify that it's true - it is one of the only reasons I can think of for this, though. Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 22:21, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
