Is there a format or manual of style for history and historical events? If there is not one already I would like to draft one up. I have been putting in entries covering the OTU years between 1116 and 1248 and am coming across a variety of formats when it comes to personalities in different settings/time periods. Examples: Entries marked like Craig Anton Horvath which has a link to Craig Anton Horvath/Rebellion. Entries like Lucan where the different time periods are marked as headings. Entries like Margaret Yetrina Tukera where information related to a different time period is hidden with hidden/show tag of Hidden|header=Rebellion Era (Click Show to reveal) or some such.

I do not on the whole deal with the GURPS: Traveller Universe, but I am cognizant of the OTU/ATU Rebellion/No Rebellion thing. I also know that wikis can get cluttered with "almost duplicate" entries. SO... Is there already a manual of style with regards to History and Personalities? If not, I would like examine further, perhaps propose one. Nathan Brazil (talk) 06:40, 15 April 2013 (EDT)[[Nathan BrazilNathan Brazil (talk) 06:40, 15 April 2013 (EDT)
