Old talk[edit]

Why are the 90s included? Ardric47 00:47, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:1st millennium which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 23:30, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

why does it start on 101 and not 100?[edit]

How can I see the last edit summary? Is year 0 (let's say June, year 0), is in the first century AD or BC? If we start counting on 0, then 0.5 should be already in the first century, decade, etc. 5.22.135.239 (talk) 13:56, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100s_(decade)

"The 100s decade ran from January 1, 100, to December 31, 109."

The same should apply for the century... 5.22.135.239 (talk) 16:05, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Theres no year 0. After 31 Dec 1 BC is 1 Jan 1 AD. For century this can help https://www.ncesc.com/how-long-is-a-decade-and-a-century/ Danial Bass (talk) 16:20, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ok but there is year 100, and it doesn't make sense that the decade starts on year 100, but the century starts on year 101. 5.22.135.239 (talk) 20:43, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That would mean that the first year of the 100's decade is in one century, and the other 9 years are in the following century. 5.22.135.239 (talk) 21:10, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Since a century is a 100 years, 1 AD to 100 AD is 100 years. So 101 to 200 is the next hundred years. I don't see a problem here Danial Bass (talk) 21:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah that is a bit weird, but thats how it is, I guess Danial Bass (talk) 21:14, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
