They will probably get bored in the end.
jguk's campaign lasted for 8 months,
Indeed. And the United States was continuously at war with Germany from 1918 until 1945, and has been so with the United Kingdom since 1776.

Hmm. I'm not sure what to make of your rather "snippy" response. The United States has not, in fact, been continuously at war with Germany for that perios, nor with the UK. However, jguk did indeed make edit articles solely for the purpose of deleting BCE/CE for 8 months, almost the entire time he has been editing here, including deletions of BCE/CE references in every one of those eight months. In all it was over 1000 edits. We've had other editors (almost always anonymous) come in here and remove BCE/CE references from several dozen, or even several hundred, articles over a period of a day or two, but I've never seen one as persistent as jguk. And by the way, contrary to geni's contention, I've never seen an anonymous editor come in and edit dozens or hundreds of articles solely for the purpose of converting BC/AD to BCE/CE - the phenomenon seems to be one-way only.
