-*'''Centuries and millennia'''
-**The second millennium was 1001–2000; the 1st century; the 17th century;
-**Use numerals for centuries (''the 17th century''), except at the start of a sentence; do not capitalize ''century''.
-**Because expressions like ''the 1700s'' are ambiguous (referring to a century or a decade), they are best avoided.

-:''What can be said for an encyclopedia that is sometimes right, sometimes wrong, and sometimes illiterate? When I showed the Harvard philosopher Hilary Putnam his entry, he was surprised to find it as good as the one in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. He was flabbergasted when he learned how Wikipedia worked. “Obviously, this was the work of experts,” he said. In the nineteen-sixties, William F. Buckley, Jr., said that he would sooner “live in a society governed by the first two thousand names in the Boston telephone directory than in a society governed by the two thousand faculty members of Harvard University.” On Wikipedia, he might finally have his wish. How was his page? Essentially on target, he said. All the same, Buckley added, he would prefer that those anonymous two thousand souls govern, and leave the encyclopedia writing to the experts.''
