AD & BC --> CE & BCE

[edit]

Considering the international scope of the Olympics and its rich history, it's important to acknowledge the evolution of dating conventions. The shift towards secular references in date notation is a wise move. This change from A.D. (Anno Domini) and B.C. (Before Christ) to C.E. (Common Era) and B.C.E. (Before Common Era) reflects a more inclusive and globally neutral approach. By adopting these secular terms, we can ensure that historical references are accessible and respectful to people of all cultural and religious backgrounds, aligning with the diverse and inclusive spirit of the Olympic Games. kmcolo (talk) 19:48, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
