 * It was a pleasure! If you ever have any questions, don't hesitate to ask at my talk page . Sdrqaz (talk) 00:37, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

If you continue to leave dishonest edit summaries don't be surprised if you get blocked.
Changing an era style is not editing grammar. Both articles had established BCE/CE edit styles. Doug Weller talk 10:11, 16 April 2022 (UTC)


 * @Doug Weller Not True. There are multiple instances of each articles switching from "BCE/BCE" and "BC/AD" throughout the whole thing. Also "BC/AD" uses less word space; perhaps it falls into the "other" category in the efforts to promote uniformity. JosephCWatkins (talk) 01:06, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * One extra letter is irrelevant and is definitely not a reason to change era styles. Switching took place but they still had established styles. Doug Weller  talk 06:39, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

I am also going to refrain myself from reverting back the pages, but I do honestly believe that I had not only cleared up word space but also promoted uniformity, which regardless of error label should have been more beneficial for the pages. Also I do think (based on the Wikipedia article about "edit warring") is that both people are at risk for getting banned but that's digressing. Can you justify why you reverted them?

 * The dishonest edit summary was sufficient. But afterwards I checked the articles. Doug Weller  talk 06:40, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
