incomplete change of era example

It appears to me that while the era has been changed to correctly read Rei Wa (令和) as the paragraph reads on the previous Heisei era (平成) is used to further illustrate the writing of the era in a Japanese date. However, my Japanese is primitive to say the least so I am not comfortable making the change.P2dwight (talk) 23:33, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I was a little confused at first. I've updated the examples but I am not Japanese so hopefully I did it right. 2601:49:8400:26B:C51A:941E:3549:7C68 (talk) 18:49, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I am hoping the new example isn't confusing given the fact that it's a Sunday. (The 'sun' kanji is used for the day and also for the day of the week.) 2601:49:8400:26B:C51A:941E:3549:7C68 (talk) 19:01, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kanji numerals?

Does anyone know if kanji numerals can be used in Gregorian dates (and in particular, I'm wondering about years)? I know it's fine in imperial dates (as seen in the coin picture) but I wasn't sure if this can be done with Gregorian dates too. How would this look to a native Japanese: 二千二十四年一月八日 ? I think this information would be helpful but I didn't want to add it to the article because I wasn't sure. 2601:49:8400:26B:C51A:941E:3549:7C68 (talk) 18:59, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
