 * Keep. Clever, useful navigation aid.  Should be based entirely on existing article content, specifically on the articles linked.  Seems to be upside down Gantt chart style.  This style of presentation of material is normal, and not copyrightable.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:17, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Like lists, timelines don't need to demonstrate that they themselves are notable.  Helpful to the reader, and because these charts employ MediaWiki, the only way they could be copyvios is if they had been taken from another website that used MediaWiki — information itself can't be copyrighted.

 * keep Useful navigational aid which can be referenced to textbooks with histories of architectural styles. Edison (talk) 22:50, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
