Template:History of China
Part of a series on the |
History of China |
---|
Usage
{中國歷史}
BC, AD, BCE, CE
This template has been designed so that it can be used both in articles that adopt the BC/AD date notation and those that adopt the BCE/CE date notation without forcing some articles to have inconsistent style.
It will display BCE/CE notation unless the template gives the parameter BC a value. For instance {History of China} will give BCE/CE notation, {History of China|BC=1} will give BC/AD notation.
It can be edited as normal, but with the following exception:
- Instead of writing BCE or BC write {#if: {BC|}|BC|BCE}
- Instead of writing CE or AD write {#if: {BC|}|AD|CE}
This functionality is necessitated by the Wikipedia:Manual of Style requirement that BC-AD and BCE-CE do not both appear in the same article.
