Template talk:Navbox timeline

Months (and days)?
Is there a way to implement months or days in the timeline? Even without labels, or if we had to use decimals, the ability to have an item end halfway through a year would be amazing. — HTGS (talk) 07:07, 31 May 2021 (UTC)


 * It would be great to have centuries and decades with the ability to turn years off. We would get far greater timespans in a standard window width and vast array of possible use cases. Now the maximum is at around 80 years, and the view gets a bit cluttered with the all the years visible. Still a great template. -- Rakkaus-muki-2 (talk) 15:53, 17 August 2021 (UTC)

– This is not the only or main timeline template; there are several other generic templates for different kinds of timeline for use in different context, such as Template:Sidebar timeline to create a sidebar; this one creates a navbox. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 19:33, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Template:Timeline → Template:Navbox timeline
 * Module:Timeline → Module:Navbox timeline
 * Yeah, have to agree, this is probably not the right name for this template. --Izno (talk) 20:15, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Sensible move. — HTGS (talk) 20:55, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Support, this is a more accurate name. Thingofme (talk) 10:29, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Support per reasons listed by nominator. Paintspot Infez (talk) 22:44, 11 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Support with making the base name a Template disambiguation page per nom. After moving the page, the previous name should not be a redirect but should be a disambiguion page. Gonnym (talk) 13:45, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

Limited to just a few decades
This template is limited to just a few decades, depending on the viewer's skin and whether images are used at left and right. It would be helpful to remove the individual years and just show decades. See Skorenovac for an example. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:24, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
