Possibly wrong definition[edit]

Shouldn't it be called hectomillennium instead? In SI system hecto means hundred, while centi is 1/100th.KarenGrigMan (talk) 19:31, 17 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Maybe, but if you look at the citations, they are (at least some, maybe all) using the word as defined here. Equinox 19:36, 17 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
@KarenGrigMan: This is not a SI term. See sense 1 of centi- (hundred); centigrade and centimillionaire also use this sense. J3133 (talk) 19:38, 17 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
