Overview
There are several types of timeline articles.
Historical timelines show the significant historical events and developments for a specific topic, over the course of centuries or millennia.
Graphical timelines provide a visual representation for the timespan of multiple events that have a particular duration, over the course of centuries or millennia.
Timelines by year are timelines for one particular year that show the developments for that year within the topical area of that timeline.
Lists of years or Tables of years are indexes that list all of the individual timelines by year that pertain to a specific topic.
Timespans next to the timeline articles listed here include the date of the earliest item included in the linked timeline article.
