Actually one of the major issues in the dispute
is whether BC/AD violates
NPOV because it requires Wikipedia to make an assertion the Jesus is the

Falls appart when you considder the islamic calender and the like
cuases simular problems for CE.
But isn't that taken for granted, that we must blindly accept, while
accepting as little as possible, that Christianity is the dominant
religion?
No. It accepts the historical fact that Christianity was the major
influencing religion in Western Europe (and from there, the "Western
world") for the better part of 1700 years.
