Lights, camera, action! Its movie time on Histropedia! Timelines aren't just about history, they’re about chronology. They’re about exploring topics in a way that lets you immediately grasp which order things happened in, when they took place and how far apart they were. There are few areas where this is more useful than when exploring the magical history of film, or just checking up on the order to watch the Marvel movies!

We have laid the groundwork for the timeline directory, now we need your help to turn it into the amazing resource we know it can be, join us and help create a new and engaging way to explore the ‘Sum of all Human knowledge’. We love Wikipedia and Wikidata, and think they are without doubt the very best places on the internet. The idea that the sum of the world’s knowledge should be freely available to everyone in the world is something we feel very strongly about, and our dream for Histropedia is to create another way to visualise that knowledge.

With these two major features we are taking a huge step towards the final vision of creating a new resource that will allow all of history to be explored, compared, and analysed in an engaging and interactive environment.
