When we talk about year 2020 or other dates, we should clarify we use Gregorian calendar.[1]

I think people 1000 years from know should understand that we used the Gregorian calendar in most of the world in 2020 AD/CE, and therefore any year number would by default reference the Gregorian calendar. Still, I agree that it should be clarified, as is the norm on Wikipedia and elsewhere. After all, some countries have not adopted the Gregorian calendar and some use it alongside other calendars.
