Anniversary[edit]

There's a legit history of it being used to particularly mark major or 50th anniversaries. There's no history whatsoever of 25/40/50/60/70 as a unit. That seems to have been misunderstood by working backwards from the scheme royals have built up of silver/ruby/golden/etc. jubilees, but those are derived terms and nothing inherent in jubilee itself. — LlywelynII 11:58, 30 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
