Talk:Calendar era

From Gineipaedia, the Legend of Galactic Heroes wiki

Page name

I recommend changing page title to something without multiple meanings. Like "Date systems" or simply "Calendars." Thoughts?Canary 11:51, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

The usual wiki convention is that only categories have plural names (Planets, Starzones, &c.). For this one i would recommend Calendar. The top paragraph can tie the singular into the plural systems that it will go on to discuss  ♥ kine @ 20:51, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps it will be more clearer if it is named as "Calendar era" instead, following the example at Wikipedia, since none of the calendars used in this series appear to deviate from the 365 days, 12 months format as prescribed by the Gregorian calendar. Glacierfairy 03:14, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, that sounds good  ♥ kine @ 09:10, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

I will change it accordingly then. Glacierfairy 02:19, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

Is it possible, that the Universal Calendar was a nod to the Universal Century calendar from the Gundam Universal Century timeline?--König Goldenbaum 21:15, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

Unknown. It could also simply be a shared science fiction convention of a new calendar system to mark the beginning of a new era. Iracundus 02:56, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

We should change the imperial calander back to R.C

The R.C doesn't just "presumably" stand for Reich's Calander, the Hi-DIVE subtitles explicitly use that terminology. It's nonsense not to use it just because it's German. So what? We've been using Anno Domini for the past 2000 years, and that's latin. No one in universe uses IC/NIC, and referring to the calanders by anything other than their proper names just confuses the audience for this wiki. The last Alterac 05:47, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

An example of a time you can see the words "Reich Calander" on screen is at the beginning of episode 38The last Alterac 06:02, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
