1580:: "Both are equally correct and neutral" - color and colour is are spelling variants, BC and BCE are arconyms with quite different unfolded meaning. The first, BC, is a reference to an unprooven religious believe of massively missionizing Christendom, legitimated only by christian propaganda and use. The latter, BCE, is the correct description of the phenomenon of christian superpositing references to calendary notations of time, in addition , what makes it also the polittically correct acronym is, that it can be read alternatively both as before christian era by christians and before common era by muslims, hindus, and the rest of the un-christian world. 1594:: Say by some "original" autors/admins and unlegitimately adopted rules from unsensitive desputed realms (like color -colour - cases) can not , and should not be ported to the sensitive/complicated/historcally-charged cases of terms and formulations of supremacy of missionizing faiths, cults and religions, (like xtianity,scientology and islam) but be better adressed with original sensitive neutral agreed uppon rulings - without rear views to "original" autors claiming wikipedia articles as their property (no trespassingĀ ;). 4 agree - 2 oppose -- I would like to thank everyone for his time and patience , regards -- 604:
bce. Was Thucydides written in the 10th century, or 1500 years earlier? The obvious answer is 1500 years earlier. Also, the oldest manuscripts among the dead sea scrolls are dated to 2nd century bce. The oldest fragments of the old testament to the 7th century bce. The oldest surviving copy of an ancient work has no bearing on when it was written, unless it was believed to be written later. Josephus wrote in the 1st century. The oldest copies of his works are much later, yet Josephus still wrote his works in the 1st century.
31: 1169:? In which country? Citizens in one country may already have to listen to (or be burdened) with having to follow what their own politicians think, without having to worry about what the politicians in the next country say is correct. But Knowledge is used in all countries, and isn't supposed to push someone's political agenda on the whole world. So please don't embarrass yourself by suggesting that "it's politically correct" is ever a persuasive argument to do anything here. 757:, not Sanskrit. It has been described as a "paradox" that the first evidence of written Sanskrit occurs centuries later than that of the Prakrit languages which are its linguistic descendants. When Sanskrit was written down, it was first used for texts of an administrative, literary or scientific nature. The sacred texts were preserved orally, and were set down in writing, "reluctantly" (according to one commentator), and at a comparatively late date. 304: 294: 273: 1587:: The argumentaive low point and last resort of referenc to the original author is not a all relevant. let's say: a hole class of jesuit students, called by their jesuit padre to propagandize "pagan" wikipedia-articles and "protect" them as their "property", would result in the bizare situation, that some claimed "original" autorship would result in utilizing the wikipedia, which has a wouldwide scope, as a christian propaganda-mashine. 82: 64: 733:. Writing was not introduced to India until after Sanskrit had evolved into the Prakrits; when it was written, the choice of writing system was influenced by the regional scripts of the scribes. Therefore, Sanskrit has no native script of its own. As such, virtually all of the major writing systems of South Asia have been used for the production of Sanskrit manuscripts. Since the late 19th century, 485: 467: 22: 399: 378: 171: 150: 181: 1545:
a bit suspicious about the reason why the article leaves off at the end of the Roman Empire--it strikes me as too Eurocentric a marker; it might still be useful, but we need to find another reason for it. (The same goes with the term "Classical Antiquity," which doesn't make much sense for Chinese and Indian literatures....)
1544:
I looked over the article, and there are simply too many instances of BCE--we don't need that for every item in the list when the list is clear that the whole period is all within the same millenium/century. So, I took out most of the BCE/CEs and left only the ones at the top of each group. Also, I'm

is, in fact, the more neutral term here, especially since (as Darktower points out) this article is world-wide in scope and not limited to Christian literature or tradition. Obviously we need to use some sort of dating system, and since we are on the English Knowledge site, it makes sense to use the

Secondly, whoever wrote this seems to have confused literature and texts. There is a difference that can be read on almost any wiki pages on literature. The title of the article is ancient literature yet the list is titled ancient texts. For instance, although I've entertained myself for hours with

Brahmi Hinguyt script appeared in India by the 5th century BC and it is the ancestor of all Indian writing systems.Even if the oral tradition is older,the written form of a text can be considered as literature.The written form of Rigveda cannot be older than the 5th century BC.The oral tradition of

needs to be added to the reference as its a long way from the spurious dating of the books of Moses. Their is no evidence of any Jewish books prior to approximately 50 B.C. The Dead Sea Scrolls are possibly the oldest and they date back to the turn of the 2nd millennium. Their writing must be dated
1702:
It is ludicrous for this Knowledge page (which amazingly lacks citations) to put the composition of the Book of Job at the 4th century BC when the majority of historians put it at the 6th century BC. The page should be quickly edited to invoke the proper scholarly dating for the Book of Job rather
1560:
The actual consensus is that you have no business visiting talkpages of articles you had no part in developing and trying to switch the era convention used. BC vs. BCE is treated exactly on the same footing as "color" vs. "colour". Both are equally correct and neutral, and you are welcome to keep

I saw your "reasons" the first time, I just said they were feeble ones. For starters, "Politically correct" shouldn't even be mentioned here as if it were a legitimate reason, because this is a neutral encyclopedia, and the very idea goes against all our principles. What the heck is "politically
603:
That's not how it works. By that logic, every single item on this page would need to be dated to the oldest extant manuscript. Every classical Greek and Latin text would need to be dated to the Medieval period. Homer would need to be dated to the 1st century bce, rather than the 8th or 7th century

standard writing system for Sanskrit publication, quite possibly because of the European practice of printing Sanskritic texts in this script. Devanāgari is written from left to right, lacks distinct letter cases, and is recognisable by a distinctive horizontal line running along the tops of the

Finally, as stated at the top of the article, the main section does not have a single reference. It, and the whole page, should be removed based solely on this. It has been a year and a half since, and the authors seem to be more concerned with petty squabbles over BC/BCE than any real content.
1814:
I'm planning on rewriting and expanding this page, expanding relevant sections from my sandbox as they reach a publishable state. The goal is to bring it up to par with the "centuries in literature" pages, and then bring all of those pages up to a higher standard since many of them are lacking
1048:? Give me a break! Our policy is to be neutral and go with what is most commonly used, not "politically correct" and prescriptive. Growing academic usage? Still not prevalent. All this does is get people riled up, actually, with all the resistance it has caused. What was the purpose again? 1183:
Um, I don't mean to be rude here or to attack you, but you don't know what "politcal correctness" is. You might want to do a little reading and then reread what myself and the others have written here. Although the best course of action would probably be to just see how the vote plays out.

Knowledge policy dictates that the consensus of the Knowledge community decides which should be used, and which usage is more common elsewhere has no relevance in such a decision (though it may influence individual's voting, of course).

just changed it back again. This issue only requires a majority anyway, not a consensus, according to the Manual of Style, and that's what we currently have. Can someone please help so that I'm not just edit warring? Thanks.
1011:
I suggest we change the dating convention from BC to BCE, due to the latter's political correctness and growing academic use. I've already done the work, so if we agree upon the change, it can be made with just a few clicks.
1372:
I still don't see what the harm is in changing to the more popular conclusion, even as votes may still be on their way, but waiting a couple more days to properly adjust the article is fine with me if that user would like.

Another one is Aulus Postumius Albinus, but he isn't even listed here. Likewise, there are a whole slew of ancient writers from the Hellenistic period absent, as well as all the early church writers(both Greek and Latin)

Why doesn't this article include any of the Old Testament apocrypha like the Book of Enoch or the New Testament apocrypha like the Gospel of Thomas? There are dozens of books like these that are missing from the article.

necessary works and citations. Based on how much material there is so far from my research, I think there is good justification for having the 5th century BCE onward ultimately be their own pages (e.g.
1819:) once more properly cited material has been added, with everything from the 26th century BCE to the end of the 6th century BCE staying on this page. Are there any objections to those ideas? 1268:
Okay, so then I'll go ahead and change it back to BCE/CE for the time being. If the consensus ever changes back, I'll of course revert to BC/AD again. Thanks for participating, everyone. --

If the Rigveda should be on the list as early as the oral tradition started, then the greek oral tradition also belongs much earlier, long before Homer wrote them down in around 800 BC.

First off, how is it that such a simplistic and non-controversial page is locked? Locking is only for biographies, major articles and pages under review. Who locked this and why?

I'm just saying you haven't given any solid reason to change, just a couple of feeble reasons, and there is more reason not to change.
