As some of you might have noticed, I introduced a new year template to format dates that are measured from the time of the Steel Beam Incident. For more details, see this page: Tokyo Ghoul Wiki:Dates.

To what extent should we use this to write dates in pages? We currently only use it in Event infoboxes (as it's really difficult to give a time when something happened without something like this). However, we could also use it to give character birthdays in infoboxes, or we could even use it in the plot sections to give some dates (for example, if there is a timeskip). But this might also confuse visitors of the wiki, as this is a method to give dates that was created solely for the purposes of the wiki, and it is not used anywhere else in the TG fanbase. (That might change from the moment we use this dating mechanism, though.)

I'd like to hear your thoughts.
