User blog comment:SupcommMonroee/Suppy Super Post 6 - Timelines and I Forgot/@comment-4844180-20130319230346


 * I will reason for why I don't like the change in the timeline (only for the Andromeda Galaxy, I am not forcing staying the same for others).
 * Firstly: We have already put the effort into making a new timeline to record events anyway.
 * Secondly: It would make a greater difference and separation between the galaxies.   So you can see that the AG timeline does not usually affect the MWG, and vice versa.
 * Thirdly:  It makes more sense to me if different civilisations had their own time scales. Thus they make different calendar systems.
 * Fourthly:The calendar is human. H umans aren't meant to be central, are they?
 * Fifthly: We already list certain conversion year ratios and dates. Such as here: Timeline of Andromeda History  and here: Avetzan Interstellar Unitary Diarchy
 * Seventhly: All users can use the AG timeline aswell.  If they don't want to make their own. So we don't really need a change to take place as we already have a variation of galactic standard years if you don't want to make your civilisation have a certain calendar.
 * Eightly: A n overall timeline gives suggestion of unification, as they agree upon time scales.  Which the galaxies are certainly not.
 * Ninethly: I would prefer to keep the articles and stories consistent. Using the same time span terms and everything.
 * Wikibuilder has also agreed with keeping the AG separate to this new timeline for much the same reasons, and I have discussed this with Kray (hence the many reasons) and he has let it be with the points mentioned. (Kray still wants an overall for the MWG at the least)
