{{Documentation
 | content =
A convenience{{\}}consistency template for the display of [[Common Era|Before Common Era]] years that places the abbreviation "BCE" preceded by a [[non-breaking space]] (&amp;nbsp;) before a year supplied. If the {{para|link}} parameter supplied is "y", "yes", or "true", the "BCE" is rendered as a link to the "Common Era" article (to which "Before Common Era" and "BCE" redirect).

===Examples===
: <code><nowiki>{{BCE|598}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{BCE|598}}
: <code><nowiki>{{BCE|5189|link=y}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{BCE|5189|link=y}}
: <code><nowiki>{{BCE}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{BCE}}
