Talk:Zhang Qian

114 BC or 113 BC?
I know it's difficult to convert historical dates. When did Zhang Qian died? This article says 113 BC; the Chinese wiki says 114 BC. A Google search results in divided opinions. Shall we make it explicit? -- Toytoy 00:29, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)

Bactria versus Daxia
"the Bactrian country of Daxia"? - Isn't "Bactria" the same as (chin.) "Daxia"? --89.56.13.177 20:34, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

BC vs BCE
This artcile was originally written using BC notation. At this edit user PHG decided to make a large number of changes from BC/AD to BCE/CE. His edit history comment was simply "ideograms". This change was uncalled for, and against policy. Accordingly I'm changing the notation back to the original. If this is not done it leads the way to eventually all articles being changed in this way. 82.20.28.142 (talk) 21:44, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I've replaced BCE with BC and removed instances of CE. Neither AD nor CE is necessary for years in the common era. 82.20.28.142 (talk) 21:50, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
