Line 233:
:: Again, there are no missing days, no discontinuites. It only appears missing (or discontinuous) because a calendar is shown in one format (O.S. or old style or Julian) and then another format (N.S. or new style or Gregorian) during the switchover. If we switched over to a Mayan calendar, there won't be 12,000 missing years (or whatever). Both (er, all three) calendars are continuous (up to the present day). I don't want to go into the exception of the Mayan calendar when it "starts over" later this year (2012). -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 18:55, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
:::I still like the calendar page shown which is about the same as the full 31 October days with 5 to 14 October
:::: You were born in 1752? Sheesh, you're almost as old as dirt. Aside from that, Pope Gregory XIII (and his [or a] scientific advisor and primary author of the reformed calendar: Aloysius Lilius, AKA: Luigi Lilio, or Liuigi Giglio, or Aluise Baldassar Lilio) didn't know about the word ''preleptic'', but it was proclaimed (via a ''papal bull'') that the reformed calendar was as if it was in effect (back) to January 1st, year 1. Note that the reformed calendar (later called the Gregorian calendar) was made effective the 24th of February in 1582 for the Catholic clergy, and it furthermore exhorted Catholic sovereigns to adopt the reformed calendar. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 20:29, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
