Notes

Parameters

Parameter options for {{auc}}
Parameter	Value	Description	Note
|1=	[number]	The year to convert to Ab Urbe Condita (or vice versa, see |2=)	This can be a number greater than zero, in accordance with Gregorian and Roman calendars, or zero or a negative number, in accordance with the astronomical calendar.
|2=	ce	A Gregorian year will be converted to Ab Urbe Condita (default)	"... CE"
	ad		"AD ..."
	bce		"... BCE"
	bc		"... BC"
	auc	A year Ab Urbe Condita will be converted to a Gregorian year	"AUC ..." E.g.: {{auc|1|AUC}} → "AUC 1 (753 BCE)"
	puc		"PUC ..." E.g.: {{auc|233|PUC}} → "PUC 233 (986 BCE)"
|main=	auc	The year Ab Urbe Condita is considered the main focus, therefore the Gregorian year will be shown in brackets (default)	E.g.: "AUC 2750 (1997 CE)"
	greg	The Gregorian year is considered the main focus, therefore the year Ab Urbe Condita will be shown in brackets	E.g.: "1997 CE (AUC 2750)"
|abbr=	on	Use the abbreviated name for all calendar eras (default)	Display "AUC" instead of "Ab Urbe Condita", "PUC" instead of "Pre Urbe Condita", "CE" instead of "Common Era", "AD" instead of "Anno Domini", "BCE" instead of "Before Common Era", "BC" instead of "BC"
	all
	greg	Abbreviate only the calendar eras that refer to the Gregorian calendar	Use the abbreviations "CE", "AD", "BCE" and "BC", but do not abbreviate "Ab Urbe Condita" and "Pre Urbe Condita".
	auc	Abbreviate only the calendar eras that refer to the Roman calendar	Use the abbreviations "AUC" and "PUC", but do not abbreviate "Common Era", "Anno Domini", "Before Common Era" and "Before Christ"
	off	Use the long name for all calendar eras	No abbreviations: all calendar eras will be expanded
	none
|disp=	b	Join input and output using "... (...)" (default)	E.g.: "AUC 200 (554 BCE)"
	sqrb	Join input and output using "... [...]"	E.g.: "AUC 786 [AD 33]"
	eq	Join input and output using "... = ..."	E.g.: "AUC 154 = 600 BC"
	comma	Join input and output using "..., ..."	E.g.: "AUC 863, 110 CE"
	or	Join input and output using "... or ..."	E.g.: "AUC 354 or 400 BCE"
	bor	Join input and output using "... (or ...)"	E.g.: "AUC 764 (or AD 11)"
	cor	Join input and output using "..., or ..."	E.g.: "AUC 764, or AD 11"
	note	Join input and output using ...{{efn|...}}	E.g.: "AUC 633" Notes
	alone	Display only the number of years and the calendar era according to the |main= parameter	E.g.: "AUC 964"
	number	Display only a natural number without any era	If |1= is a Gregorian year, the number returned equals the value of that year in the astronomical calendar plus 753; if |1= is an year Ab Urbe Condita, the number returned equals exactly the value of that year in the astronomical calendar. E.g.: {{auc|1|disp=number}} → "754"
|alinks=	on	Create automatic links for the eras referred (CE, BCE, AD, BC, AUC, PUC) (default)	Default behavior
	yes
	true
	off	Do not create automatic links for the eras referred	E.g.: "AUC 742 (12 BCE)"
	no
	false
|page=	[wiki-page-name]	Connects the years returned to specific pages; setting one of these parameters overrides the effects of the |alinks= parameter on that year	Synonym of |greg-page=
|greg-page=	[wiki-page-name]		E.g.: {{auc|12|CE|greg-page=AD 12}} ↓ "AUC 765 (12 CE)"
|auc-page=	[wiki-page-name]		E.g.: {{auc|12|CE|auc-page=AD 12|alinks=off}} ↓ "AUC 765 (12 CE)"
|flip=	none	Keep the normal order of year and era (default)	Default behavior
	auc	Invert the order of year and era in the Ab Urbe Condita part	E.g.: "824 AUC (AD 71)"
	greg	Invert the order of year and era in the Gregorian part	E.g.: "AUC 824 (71 AD)"
	all	Invert the order of year and era everywhere	E.g.: "824 AUC (71 AD)"
