CE
I don't understand your revert but on past experience, you don't get much wrong. So can I clarify?
- CE (disambiguation) is a list of articles known by that initialism.
- I know of no cases where, apart from deliberate "I see no ships", that anyone anywhere uses CE to mean Christian Era. Although that nomenclature has long provenance, in recent times it is used as a POV backronym.
- Christian Era does not redirect to CE.
So tmli5, why is it there? 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 12:32, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- @JMF I suggest that it's a likely-enough misunderstanding of what CE stands for, to be worth retaining the link to Anno Domini. The Guardian style guide refers to "some people prefer CE (common era, current era or Christian era)". It gets a mention in Anno_Domini#CE_and_BCE if that helps. Christian Era and Christian era redirect to Anno Domini, with a hatnote there pointing to the Christian era (disambiguation) page.
- The more I look at Anno Domini and Common Era, the more I wonder why we have two separate articles - but I suspect it's been a hugely contested area so am not going there.
- I had to Google "tmli5": seems to be Reddit term and I don't do Reddit - but perhaps it's down to age or side of the pond.
- Perhaps: Some people think that CE stands for "Christian Era", even though they're wrong (as lots of Misplaced Pages readers are about lots of things). Someone has decided that the most likely useful article for someone searching on "Christian Era" is the article Anno Domini. So we should help those people by offering a link from the CE dab page to Anno Domini.
- But it's not a hill I'd fight over: it just seemed more helpful to leave the dab entry there. I suppose I've got a pretty inclusionist approach to dab page entries. PamD 12:59, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, that makes sense so I won't pursue. It just looked like yet another case of proselytising slipped in. And yes, it is a sensitive topic, see talk:Common Era#Request for Comment: Christian Era. (And apologies for trying to be trendy: another editor might have regarded tlmi5 as snarky and rightly so. I didn't spot it at the time but it is obvious now.) --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 13:32, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- @JMF To be honest I had this going round in my head later and found I was disagreeing with myself, but I still think it's probably worth including in the dab page! Controversial stuff best tiptoed quietly around or left well alone. And I've increased my vocabulary learning "tmli5" etc (seems to come in a variety of versions!) Every day a school day, as they( say. PamD 17:27, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Veliki Rit, Banat
The article Veliki Rit, Banat has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Unreferenced and unimproved almost 15 years. No reliable sources online Google news, newspapers, books, or scholar. Run of the mill, very small village. Not enough information to merge.
While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Bearian (talk) 02:50, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Bearian: I only stub-sorted it, 15 years ago, but have risen to the challenge and found coords and a couple of sources; the presence of another Veliki Rit in Serbia helps justify the existence of this little stub, to avoid confusion. PamD 09:17, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
