Your statement is not based on the facts, SouthernComfort generally
was a regular editor of the articles he changed the notation in. He
can be presumed to have decided Common Era notation was better for
that article and to have had at least the forbearance of the other
editors. With respect to American versus British English it has
always been acceptable to change to American spelling for an American
subject and vice-versa.

change the date formats. This would be the same as an
editor changing all American spellings to English
spellings and getting away with it because they are
offended by American spellings.
