Talk:History of Qatar

message: There seems to be an awful lot of disputable, dubious or downright wrong information in the sections concerning Qatar's history. Even the date of the discovery of oil is wrong by three years.

message: I will be changing the dating system on this article away from the biased, Christian based AD/BC to the common era system next week.  This will bring the article into alignment with secular usage such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_India.  If you object, please state why you are ok with the biased system here.

replies: text: Before you go changing AC BC please read Wikipedia:Manual of Style, specifically MOS:VAR. Also, instead of hundreds of discussions regarding the changes on hundreds of different talk pages, get a conversation going here: Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style. Thanks!
