| This is a documentation subpage for Template:History of China. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
=== Usage === This template has been designed so that it can be used both in articles that adopt the BC/AD date notation and those that adopt the BCE/CE date notation without forcing some articles to have inconsistent style. It will display BCE/CE notation unless the template gives the parameter BC a value. For instance {{History of China}} will give BCE/CE notation, {{History of China|BC=1}} will give BC/AD notation. It can be edited as normal, but with the following exception: *Instead of writing BCE or BC write {{#if: {{{BC|}}}|BC|BCE}} *Instead of writing CE or AD write {{#if: {{{BC|}}}|AD|CE}} This functionality is necessitated by the Wikipedia:Manual of Style requirement that BC-AD and BCE-CE do not both appear in the same article. ;Parameters :state - autocollapse, uncollapsed, collapsed: the status of box expansio
