Were is September and the months May, June, and July are in the wrong order. --—The preceding unsigned comment was made by InoNOTHING (talk • contribs).
Those months used to have their own subpages because of length; they are now part of 1998 as a whole. The category page lists them in numeric and alphabetic order, it is not supposed to months in the right order.-- Forerunner 11:09, October 1, 2011 (UTC)
Replacement[]
The timeline on here is a completely lost cause. I propose simply erasing it and linking to the Chronology of Evil timeline I compiled and continually update instead, since it dwarfs the Wikia's and is more accurate to boot. Many dates are speculative or just blatantly incorrect here. The general template can be kept and someone can go through and add the entries from the CoE if they wish.

There are a lot of articles that consist entirely of "X was born around this year", though other articles such as 1998 have the dates lifted from the files.-- Forerunner 06:50, October 23, 2011 (UTC)
All the more reason to replace the timeline completely, for now. It's practically worthless right now, for all intents and purposes. News Bot 06:52, October 23, 2011 (UTC)
Wesker and Birkin look into creating Tyrants using the T-virus but research comes to a stand still when they discover the infected need to contain a rare gene that only 1 in 10 million have.
Wesker obtains an NE-α Type that kills most hosts within minutes. They finally decide to infect Lisa Trevor with it. She absorbs the properties into her own genetic make-up. She is the first ever known existence of the G-Virus.

July
Billy Coen is fighting in Africa with his unit, intervening in the Civil War. Their mission was to raid a Guerrilla forces hideout located inside the jungle.
There was no hide-out though. They were operating on wrong information. Billys unit leader didn’t want to go home empty handed so he ordered they attack the innocent village. Billy refuses, so they knock him out and later say it was all him.
July 23rd
Dr Markus releases the T-Virus on a train and in the Spencer’s Arlkay Mountain Estate to get back at Umbrella for trying to kill him.
Billy Coen is being transported to his death sentencing but the transport gets attacked by zombie dogs. Billy escapes.
Meanwhile, a train 3 miles from the Spencer mansion is attacked by a leach-like B.O.W. controlled by a young Dr Markus.
Bravo team are called to check out the area, their helicopter crashes.
Rebecca Chambers finds the train and finds Billy Coen. Despite not trusting him at first, they end up working together.
They hear the Markus sing (they don’t know who he is yet though) and the train starts moving.
Billy turns the breaks on and the train crashes. They escape the wreckage and find themselves inside Markus’ Mansion.
Wesker and a scientist are watching on a tv and trying to work out how the virus escaped.
Markus tells them he is going to get revenge on Umbrella and Wesker for what they did.
Dr Markus, who is watching Rebecca in his Mansion, is annoyed at her trespassing so her sets his B.O.W.S’s on her.
Wesker says he is going to leave Umbrella with the T-Virus data and go collect combat-data by leading the STARS unit into the mansion as test subjects.
Markus sets a Tyrant on Rebecca and Billy.
They find Markus who explains everything and then mutates. They fight.
The scientist that was with Wesker sets the Mansion to self-destruct.
Rebecca and Billy escape.
Rebecca decides to lie and say that Billy died.
Rebecca sees the other Mansion that RE1 takes place in.
And so on. It would be nicer to make it is as a collapsing table with better indentation.
Yes, this is quite heavy traffic-wise, but it's not 90s, a wall of text will load up very fast actually. Also this page won't really use more space on wiki then a few images/screenshot that used A LOT on this wiki. -- SonicSonedit (talk) 01:20, October 23, 2013 (UTC)
We split up just the 1998 article for a long while because it was ridiculously large, and its merged form is ungodly, still; a full timeline isn't going to go well. -- Forerunner 02:14, October 23, 2013 (UTC)
Well, this is where collapse option comes to help. Just check the example above, doesn't really looks so ugly. Just some indentation for months sections and it will be ok. -- SonicSonedit (talk) 02:31, October 23, 2013 (UTC)
Another question: is it possible to add a new collapsing template to the wiki? With fixed identation and "hide" button to the left (not to the right as it is now)? -- SonicSonedit (talk) 02:32, October 23, 2013 (UTC)
Navboxes can have settings that keep them at the same width regardless of whether or not they're collapsed. -- Forerunner 10:00, October 23, 2013 (UTC)
Can you give me an example by editing what I posted above? -- SonicSonedit (talk) 12:47, October 23, 2013 (UTC) -- Forerunner 13:10, October 23, 2013 (UTC)
