This template is for use on articles about centuries within the Common Era (CE). You can use it in two ways: (a) by writing {{Centurybox}} (works only on a page with a century as a title); or (b) by writing {{Centurybox|century number}} where century number are the digits of the century. As an example, if you want to use it on 19th century, you may write either {{Centurybox}} or {{Centurybox|19}} and it will display the correct links for the 19th century, as shown here.
Note: This template is hardcoded not to display any time periods earlier than 1750, i.e. the beginning of the 1750s decade, the decade of Shaykh Ahmad's birth. The rationale is that, since Shaykh Ahmad is considered the earliest figure having direct relevance to Bahá'í history, it is unlikely that Bahaipedia will need individual articles for any years prior. This also prevents earlier years from showing up in the Special:WantedPages list.
