| Usage |
This field may be used to populate a timeline. It accommodates a certain amount of uncertainty, which is why we recommend using it in conjunction with our often-inexact Date original, but too much uncertainty (say, more than a three-decade span of time) will not make it very useful on a timeline either. Enter the decade as YY[Tens digit]0s. Do not use an apostrophe between the 0 and the s. Do not use “Unknown”—just leave the field blank. |
| Examples |
1920s 1910s; 1920s; 1930s |
