== Semi-protected edit request on 8 January 2025 == |
|||
Section [[Year#Symbols]] gives: |
|||
:''a'' = 31556925.445 seconds |
|||
But units normally should receive no italics: |
|||
:a = 31556925.445 seconds |
|||
For example, [[MOS:UNITSYMBOLS]] says: |
|||
:''Write unit names and symbols in upright (roman) type, except where emphasizing in context.'' |
|||
Here [[MOS:EMPHASIS]] would seem to allow italics |
|||
but [[MOS:WORDSASWORDS]] actually discourages it in this case: |
|||
:''When italics could cause confusion (such as when italics are already being heavily used in the page for some other purpose, e.g., many non-English words and phrases), double quotation marks instead may be used to distinguish words as words.'' |
|||
So I propose rewriting [[Year#Symbols]] to avoid italics in general for "a" and using double quotes when necessary. [[User:Fgnievinski|fgnievinski]] ([[User talk:Fgnievinski|talk]]) 06:31, 30 June 2021 (UTC) |

If you add up the days in a non leap year there's only 364 days in a year and 365 in a leap year. Just add up the days on your calendar yourself! [[Special:Contributions/174.250.210.197|174.250.210.197]] ([[User talk:174.250.210.197|talk]]) 01:16, 14 March 2022 (UTC) |

The short article under "Abbreviations for "years ago" is perfect - thank You!!" - however, regrettably too less known by those linguistically incompetent geologists.[[Special:Contributions/2A02:8108:9640:AC3:4DF8:A0AF:4F2D:BE71|2A02:8108:9640:AC3:4DF8:A0AF:4F2D:BE71]] ([[User talk:2A02:8108:9640:AC3:4DF8:A0AF:4F2D:BE71|talk]]) 06:28, 6 June 2022 (UTC) |

== 1 year is 730.5 days. == |

There is a summer, spring, autumn and winter seasons for a 365¼ days year. The orbit of planet Earth is ellipse so planet Earth is close to star Sun twice and faraway from star Sun twice. So there are two summers seasons and two winters seasons. So the revolution of planet Earth around star Sun is 365¼×2 is 730.5 days. So new year day first year is day , new year day second year is night, new year day third year is day and new year day fourth year is night.
