Please change BC to BCE and AD to CE.
Modern scholarship prefers the far more inclusive BCE and CE versus BC and AD. This article uses both throughout so changing the date format to BCE and CE will also make the article more stylistically consistent. CuJoYYC (talk) 13:50, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: While I share your preference for BCE/CE overall, see MOS:ERA for the applicable guidelines for Wikipedia articles. As of your writing, BC and BCE were both in use in the article; there was also one use of AD and none of CE. Looking at earlier revisions, I found there was a time when the article (see the revision at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Albania&oldid=624794034, for example) had only one use of any of BC, BCE, AD, or CE, and it was BC. Therefore, in conformance with the guidelines, I settled on the BC/AD model as the one to follow for this article and changed all the instances of BCE (except in the title in one footnote, which would have been inappropriate to change) to BC.
