Participation
The members of this project will be constructing the timelines here in table form and then transposing them to the Timeline of Events article as they become ready. As this is the primary workspace for this project, all discussion has to take place in the talk page, which is slightly different from how other projects work but this is how it has to be.
Rules
- All participants must contribute at least twice a month to remain in the Chronology Project
- Since the Timeline of Events page is protected, all users must go to the project's talk page to announce that a particular arc/section is done so that Salubri or Xilinoc can export the table to the Timeline
How To Work With Tables
In a table, when you work with it, this is how you need it to be:
First, place |- after the last item to separate it. It might mess up the table if you wont.
Copy this setup:
| -date, time and location-
| -events-
| [[Image:nameofimage.filetype|160px]]
change it accordingly. If it is the last item in the table, make sure that there is a |}
Anything written after that won't be in the table, so make sure it is last!
Thank you very much for contributing to the wiki!
