More stuff for inclusion[edit]

Parkwells, your work came up on my watchlist, so thought I'd throw out a few suggestions. Here is a list page of other mississippian sites and a template for precolumbian NA. Didn't want to cause edit conflicts or step on your toes.

List of Mississippian sites, for a See also section, a list of similar sites.

Anyway, happy editing. Heironymous Rowe (talk) 20:37, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Date style-Common Era or ANNO DOMINI[edit]

This article was originally in the BC/AD date style, but at some point over a year ago during an expansion it was changed to the more scholarly and neutral BCE/CE. A one edit IP recently reverted it to the BC/AD, citing WP:ERA. So as not to start an edit war by simply reverting, and per WP:ERA where it states "Do not change from one style to another unless there is substantial reason for the change, and consensus for the change with other editors", I was wondering if there is consensus amongst the people who edit this page to keep it BCE/CE? It has been stable for over a year as CE, is more neutral when describing a non-Christian site and society, and CE is a common and accepted date style among archaeologists, especially for non western and non christian societies. I would welcome some input. I've also left a message at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Archaeology#Common era or AD about this discussion.

Support use of Common era, as the proposer. He iro 03:40, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: WP:ERA also states "Do not use CE or AD unless the date would be ambiguous without it" - since there are no BC/E dates in the article, following that guideline seems like a good compromise (which, as it happens, was the original usage in the article). The one place I can see it being a problem is this section:

He used radio-carbon dating of wood and charcoal excavated from the bottom and the top of the mound to determine dates of 760 years and 475 years Before Present (based on 1950 as present) for its span of construction. This means approximately AD 1190 to AD 1475.

But it seems to me there's an unnecessary amount of verbiage there anyway, so it can be reworded to avoid the ambiguity:

Radiocarbon dating of wood and charcoal excavated from the top and bottom of the mound indicate it was constructed between c. 1190 and 1475.

The part of WP:ERA that's relevant here is "Do not use CE or AD unless the date would be ambiguous without it (e.g. "The Norman Conquest took place in 1066" not 1066 CE or AD 1066)". The dates are not ambiguous without either AD/CE so the point is moot and I've removed instances of either AD/CE from the article. Nev1 (talk) 18:27, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
