Here is the old text, which I'm archiving here, because I'll be making a minor modification: "The official chronology of the United Nations only makes note of the passage of proposals. There is no corresponding record of failed resolutions, propositions that were pulled from the queue after achieving quorum but before going to a vote, and similar events that seemed quite important at the time. The following list is a chronology, assembled by meticulous study of forum topics past and the recollections of UN members and observers." Mikitivity 02:13, 19 Oct 2004 (GMT)

No need to keep a record of edits, the wiki does so automatically for all to see. Click the History tab for examples. Frisbeeteria Θtalk 02:15, 19 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Is there any reason why this article shouldn't be moved to UN Timeline? --Goobergunch|? 22:41, 19 Dec 2004 (GMT)

Comments/Questions

  • This is a great asset to UN functions, especially since NS isn't exactly known for it's speed. If you don't know what page a particular resolution is on, it could very well take you up to half an hour to find the darn thing. I vote FOR feature article. Hersfold 23:33, 15 May 2005 (GMT)
  • Kinda funny, me ambivalent about an article that I'm the principal author of. As much as I like this article, and as much as I agree with Hersfold about its usefulness; it's not suited to the format of the Featured Article space on the front page. If it could be given the accolades and then moved to the Featured list without ever having made the front page, I'd be happy. Given that isn't really an option, I'm ... ambivalent. → Fris Θtalk 23:49, 6 Jul 2005 (GMT)
  • I'm hoping to go back and convert the UNA notes into NSWiki, and see this article as being very useful for new and old UN members. As the NSUN has become more "legal", it really is important to have a timeline and promote it. Mikitivity 31 July 2005 23:07 (GMT)
  • It's a great article, but it just dosen't make sense to be a featured article in my opinion. Its more of a reference --Tetris L-Shaped Block 00:15, 10 August 2005 (GMT)
  • This is a highly useful article. I agree with Hersfold and Mikitivity. It appears to meet all qualifications for a featured article. --New Commustan 16 August 2005 17:44 (GMT)
