Alternative History talk:List of Althists
From Alternative History
We may want to alphabetise this page. Louisiannan 08:00, 2 Feb 2005 (PST)
Yeah, that's probably a good idea. Done. Nik42 20:44, 2 Feb 2005 (PST)

[edit] Commonwealth of America
"134 original colonies"....is it really 134? --JWSchmidt 14:42, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Future Althists
Can you add an alternative history that will happen in the future? KFan II 19:46, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
Alt-histories are just that, alternate histories, where history is different. If you know that a "future timeline" will be based on a divergent history, you can add it, but if it's something that diverges after the present, then no, as that's a Future History. Louisiannan 19:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Outside links
By the way, www.althist.com was a dead link. Just thought someone should know.
[edit] donald trump timeline
we really need a donald trump timeline around here.
- If you feel like we need one, come up with one instead of just adding one to the list, and for that matter, how about you introduce yourself, too. :) Louisiannan 05:19, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Should this list be split into two
The article is over 59KB long, we may need to split the list into 2 or 3 segments so it can be easily accessible. --Dynamo ace 12:22, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- Any recommendations on the break points? Louisiannan 01:17, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- Halfway ?--Marcpasquin 05:40, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- I was thinking half way and also to add extra categorises to the althistrories to define the types of Althistroy (Political, Economic and Comedy) --Dynamo ace 10:12, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- Please do that as soon as you can. I want to add an althist but can't as whenever I try to edit the list my browser (IE 6) crashes. I started splitting it myself but as I say, it kept on crashing. I can also tell you that, for me anyway, the list needs to be split into more than two parts, i.e. 4 or 5. And they need to be equally-sized (or as close as possible), not just "let's have the first six section here, and the next six here", as some sections (for example A) are pretty big. Please don't take this as pointless moaning because that list isseriously long, in fact probably longer than any list I've ever seen on any wiki, including Wikipedia. As I said at the start, this is stopping me having the enjoyment of contributing, so I would really appreciate if you guys could split it. Thanks. I don't register as a user but I have contributed to other wikis.
[edit] Images (logo)
Can I and/or we push a images (only 1 for althis) in this plot here or in P.o.d. list? of course easy to loading, and small in the screen-Fero 02:26, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Disaster Alternative History

[edit] Adding Video to Alternate History
If possible can we add video to our wiki's? Please respond quickly I believe it could revolutionize the site.--Emanresu11 20:52, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
[edit] New Format
I was thinking of a new format for the list. You can see what I have been working on under "0-9". What do you think? Mitro 21:19, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Looks good! --DarthEinstein 23:07, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah it looks a lot cleaner (to me), looks nice. Mikebloke 05:33, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- I'm glad people like it. Here is a problem though: it is really boring and repetitive to create those tables. I'd be willing to work on this if I can one or more persons to split the alphabet with me. Mitro 16:00, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- I'll have a go, I'll start on "a" now, and unless anyone else says so, I'll keep going down the letters when I have time Mikebloke 16:23, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, and what should I do with those with no links? In some cases, they still have pages but the portal page doesn't exist. Should I still include it or just remove it completely? Mikebloke 16:34, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- Hmm...good point. I have been removing them completely but I honestly have not checked to see if they have any pages beside the portal page. My guess is use your best judgment: if they have a page that can substitute for a portal page (like the TL itself) then use that, but if they don't even have that just remove their listing. Mitro 17:46, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- Alright thanks, I did Y and Z in the meantime as they are short Mikebloke 17:57, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- Just to let you know, I haven't forgotten! I'll do some more tonight, but it'll still be sporadic for awhile. I won't do it all myself though >.> I'll need a bit of help. Mikebloke 03:36, September 8, 2009 (UTC)
