Starting to Remake Timelines

After some testing last night and this morning I'm fairly confident that the new database is viable enough to start redoing and uploading pages, there is much information that I have double copys of mixed in various back-up and information that was lost. The BCE information has the lesser amount of redundance so that is what I'm going to try and work through today.

THe vague plan is for me to go dump information into the mySQL one 'page' at a time. Then rebuild the page from the database compare the two pages then upload the newer and go to the next page. A good readl of my time will be spent looking for other back-ups and checking them against the current.

I hadn't written anything into the database since my last major upload, so I feel confident that everything up to 1400 will be handled this way. from that point on i have two sets of information up until sometime in the 1800s with everything in the old templates. It will be a long tedious process.

My todo list for this project is to make a editor specific to my needs, I've a few DB editors but the don;t easily have some fo the functions I need.

Another issue is speed. I'm thinking strongly of reducing image advertising a bit, and stick with lighter stuff, and less of that too.
