#430

Date, which is entered as it appears in the publication. If the date appears in a non-western calendar, give the date in the western calendar after it in square brackets.

Examples

#430 1975
#430 民國80年[1991]
#430 甲戌[1993]
#430 1993-1995
#430 民國72-75年[1983-1986]

If the date is in the western calendar but in Chinese numerals, transcribe them into Arabic numerals. In such cases there is no need to use square brackets:

#430 1992

(not #430 一九九二 or #430 [1992])

Square brackets are used if the date has been derived from external sources, or if the date of the preface has been taken to be the date of publication:

#430 [1867]
#430 [1990?]
#430 [1963序]
#430 [1920或1930年代?]
