Please follow the naming conventions. If you don't things get REALLY confusing and give ME a BIG head-ache as administrator. Louisiannan 21:14, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Please use Template:Aeab to help you follow the naming conventions. Louisiannan
PLEASE FOLLOW THE NAMING CONVENTIONS. You've created a bunch of pages without any marking for them to be part of your Aetas ab Brian. By typing {{Aeab|PAGENAMEHERE}} it will automatically create the page link with the timeline name intact. Please do this instead of normal inking, and please do this on every page you link to within this timeline. Louisiannan 17:37, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
:( butbut I don't understand! where am I not using (Aeab)? Or are they all wrong and I'm supposed to be using (Ætas ab Brian)? Or is it that all my pages link to the same category page or something?! Why don't I get it?:(--TEAKAY 18:00, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
If you use {{Aeab|PAGENAMEHERE}} instead of [[blablablah (AEtas Ab Brian|blablabla]]. But from the edit log, it seems you've gotten the idea. Make sure that the pages you create for AEAB have the " (Ætas ab Brian)" tacked on the end. But otherwise you're good. Thanks! Louisiannan 18:16, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
Sorry about this inconvenience, the conventions of wikias always seem to easily confuse me :(. What else needs changing?--TEAKAY 18:19, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image Talk

Please read here. --Sikulu 14:09, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

I know you've already created so many maps, but since you continue to create more, I just wanted to say that at least with maps containing words (like the Asia ones), it would help to increase the size, because it's hard to make out some of the names. --Riction 01:25, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
How do I do this? Putting in a picture always restricts it to 153000 bytes or something--C II R 14:39, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
Sorry for the late reply. Hmm...Your "Terranova" and "South Terranova" maps look good. As for the limit, you can still put in on if it surpasses the limit, but it should only be by a little bit. If it's a much larger file, you might want to change the extension if you can do that. For example, a JPEG to a PNG...if you have a program that can save as (or export to) another type of file. Play around with them to see what gets you the lowest file size. Then, you can just create a thumbnail of the file in your articles. For example, this:
This is an example.
This is an example.
--Riction 23:38, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Okay PNG, thanks --C II R 18:06, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
No problem. I enjoy your many maps. --Riction 02:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
I like maps--C II R 13:04, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the image! ςפקιДИτς 22:05, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

I had fun, I was worried it looked too much like the other flag though. --TEAKAY 22:39, 20 June 2007 (UTC)




About the renovations: No problem.

BTW, going through the Aeab history: I thought I could make a template for those boxes on top and bottom of all of those pages. What about that?--193.170.21.43 17:07, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

I wouldn't have a problem with one being made. I had tried to make one when I started the timeline but gave up.--TEAKAY 17:12, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
And here it is. Use it like this (if you leave out the past_title and future_title bits, the system will write !Past and Future! instead):
{{Aeab timebox
|title=Whatever
|year1=2144(1391)
|year2=2154(1401)
|year3=2163(1410)
|year4=2173(1420)
|past_title=Mission to Mars: A Space Odyssey
|future_title=The Muscovite Secession Wars
}}

which becomes:

Mission to Mars: A Space Odyssey
2144(1391)-2154(1401)
Whatever:
2154(1401)-2163(1410)
The Muscovite Secession Wars
2163(1410)-2173(1420)


Yeah! that's pretty neat! Thanks! --TEAKAY 23:05, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
Oh wait, what do I do about the title for the currently selected section? --TEAKAY 23:10, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
Corrected.
Thanks again--TEAKAY 10:45, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

If the majority of the central latitudes in Europe were to become tundra (and northern Europe becoming glaciated), how much of a population of 830 million would have to be evacuated in order for a comfortable living standard to be sustained by the minimized amount of resources they could produce? Would 60% be enough?--TEAKAY 21:28, 12 November 2007 (UTC)


were the Roman Empire to break up, what would be the most appropriate name for the sucessor(or remainder) states in Europe that continued to be ruled from Rome?

  • Roman Union
  • Second Republic of Europe
  • European Federation

Are these any good? Suggestions welcome as always.--TEAKAY 19:35, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Also, those provinces that remained under Rome's control, would the new 'empire' still be considered the Roman Empire's direct successor state or would that be a matter of argument, or would they likely claim to be the same political entity? The new 'empire' became a democracy when the Roman Empire broke up and many of the previous politicians were changed by the elections, so they could either want to perpetuate the historic heritage or be enthusiastic about the 'new' nation. Which, if any, of these is most likely?--TEAKAY 23:37, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chrotim

What's with your Chrotim page? Should I delete it?--Max Sinister 15:53, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Chrotim 0_o? I don't know what it is, I made it? I guess there's no reason for it to exist.--TEAKAY 16:10, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AB story question

awesome work, I'm loving the timeline you've created. But when I got to this part:

"one Taikonaut noticed a nearby object out a viewport. The ship’s astrolabe targeted it and made numerous visual recordings. The object was an astersaxumi 2 Ly in length (about 3.37 kilopes(1km)) and it had just passed between Earth and Luna with not one terra- or luna-bound telescopium detecting it."

I couldn't help but wonder if there was an OTL asteroid, where the scientist calculated it's historical fly-bys. But maybe it's not especially uncommon for an asteroid to pass closer than the distance the moon orbits.

Yes, that, I'm pretty sure I totally made up. Since I could later say it was an asteroid that had fallen into the sun; minorly impacted another planet; or got away for ever from the system by the time OTL tracting got serious, I thought I'd be able to get away with it. It's good to know it's being read.--TEAKAY 16:16, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Proposal

I'd love to know your opinion on this. --Karsten vK (talk) 15:14, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

I do dislike the advertisements but don't really have a preference to what happens.--TEAKAY 20:02, 12 July 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Nein

thanks for grammmatic and ortografic correction of Nein ("No" in Deutsch, language of Germany) P.O.D. and remember U R welcome to collaborate in there --Fero 02:37, 13 July 2008 (UTC) (i still saying sorry for my english)

[edit] Kornilovshina

I seek your help in Kornilovshina. Could you please provide maps and tables as well as text? Let me know. Buk5 18:17, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

I could do maps if given the details. Beyond small grammar/structure corrections there is not much for me to offer in improving the timeline.--TEAKAY 22:42, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
I have some of the particulars of The USA annexing Mexico and Canada, Russia getting Manchuria, France getting British colonies. German borders postbellum would be present day borders. the rest is present day borders. Buk5 23:03, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
I'm not sure to what extent France gets of Britain's empire but what I have here is still near Britain's height. Please tell me if it needs to be different.--TEAKAY 00:41, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
that map is pretty good. However, i forgot to say russia would also have Soviet Era borders as well as Manchuria. Buk5 06:56, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
*Map updated*--TEAKAY 10:52, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
France would also have her original colonies and she only gained Britain's African ones. The rest became independent.
^^;; eh heh, I can't forget France already had a colonial empire to build on.--TEAKAY 11:47, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Oh, i almost forgot. The USA retain controls of the Philippines to the present day and Finland is still part of Russia ATL as well as China annexing mongolia and Tibet ATL.

Sorry if i annoyed you TEAKAY. Thanks for the Kornilovshina map BTW. Buk5 19:46, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

It was certainly not annoying, making maps is fun.--TEAKAY 20:17, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
