Untitled 2004 comment
[edit]I have made some year layout proposals which would affect a significant proportion of the year pages: an example of proposed style is 1850. It is detailed on my talk page.
If no-one flags where I have put the discussion on my talk page that they object in a month I will start making everything consistent. It may take some time... --BozMo 12:34, 7 May 2004 (UTC)(talk)
Images
[edit]11-December-2006: As of November 2006, many years didn't have event images. For the 20 yearly articles ("1770-1789"), I have been able to add images beside the corresponding text under Events, but that required moving the "Year-in-other-calendars" to the Births section (which is where it "appeared" to be in years with few events, by automatic formatting). The new images now are near the corresponding Events text. I also had to separate the Births section by a break-line:
- {{-}}<!-- reset to left margin, for future images above -->
The break-line pushes the subheader "Births" below any future Events images. I have added images in a similar manner to the 1770s, 1780s, 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. Among those 50 years, the various articles, originally, each had slightly different formats. -Wikid77 01:55, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Format
[edit]11-December-2006: As of December 2006, each year has a different format, as people add events or special subhead categories, "Nobel prizes" or "Ship events" and such. For example, year 1778 had month-name subheads parallel to the "Events" subhead (which had un-dated events with no months). I divided Events as 3 groups: January-June, July-December, and Unknown-dates. It seems that unless month names are identified in subheaders, the un-dated events get added into scattered locations. As with many Wiki articles, the format evolves, and multiple people must edit to maintain all 5 aspects: new facts, accurate facts, images, Wiki-format, and some consistency with related articles. It is too difficult to expect each person will master all 5 jobs. -Wikid77 13:19, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
