The ] contrasts "Korean age" with "Real age". Even though it's used by most of the world, it's still not ideal to suggest one culture's counting system is more "real" than another. Are there any alternate terms that might be more neutral? I'd ping the image creator, but it appears they're no longer active. ] <small>(])</small> 15:57, 28 June 2023 (UTC) |

:: uses "international system" and "western way". uses "international standards" and "calendar age". also uses "international standards". International standards and calendar age seem like useful and more neutral terms, depending on context. ] (]) 02:07, 29 June 2023 (UTC) |

# Sinosphere age reckoning |
|
|
#* I think a little confusing; may suggest trying to determine the age of the Sinosphere itself. |
|
|
# Traditional age reckoning in the Sinosphere |
|
|
#* This is more precise I feel; currently, as far as I'm aware, the entire Sinosphere no longer uses the age reckoning for major applications, mostly just ceremonial. "Age reckoning in x" can be interpreted as a present and not mostly past practice |

:* Weak '''oppose''': because "sinosphere" isn't a common word. "East Asian" may not be entirely accurate but it is close and it is well recognized. |

::I know we don't have to have consistency, but this breaks consistency with the other articles I linked above. The issue is "not be entirely accurate" -> frequent exclusion of Vietnam. This debate hinges on how much you value recognizability of name vs the potential exclusion of Vietnam from this phenomenon. ] (]) 00:37, 30 July 2024 (UTC) |

::::I know, I said "frequent exclusion". Also key phrase there "Chinese cultural sphere". |

::::This is a less strong argument, but when you ask a person on the street "what countries are in East Asia", how likely are they to include Vietnam in the list? And if they do include Vietnam, do they also include Cambodia, Laos, etc (which are not part of the Sinosphere)? ] (]) 01:46, 30 July 2024 (UTC) |

:::::So "frequent ''in''clusion" as well, yes? "Sinosphere" is considered a spelling error by my editor. Is it the case that "sinosphere" is exactly the same as all regions and peoples who have reckoned age as described in this article? What if we keep the current title but mention "Sinosphere" and/or "Vietnam" prominently in the lede? We could also add redirects from ] and similar. —] (] | ]) 13:09, 30 July 2024 (UTC) |
