Updating to Kill Templates

I worked through a rough edit of the 1910s. Since all the pages are interlinked I have to do swaths of them fairly quickly when I'm changing page ranges, so the information is mostly stuff that looks right on the spur of the moment and I don't feel the need to re-research. I added a stats feature to my page builder which tells me I'm posting about 25% of the raw information I have so I suspect the page ranges will need changed many times.
[1910]
[1911]
[1912]
[1913]
[1914e]
[1914.h1]
[1914.q3]
[1914.q4]
[1915e]
[1915.h1]
[1915.h2]
[1916]
[1917e]
[1917.h1]
[1917.h2]
[1918e]
[1918.h1]
[1918.h2]
[1919e]
[1919.q1]
[1919.q2]
[1919.q3]
[1919.q4]

and as a break I did a little stuff at the begining of the Reformation and conquest of the Americas. These pages mark one of the older template sets, I figure I have three sets. v2 which is menu left green, v2+, which is menu left gray, and v3 which is menu right gray. As I move up through the 20th Century I'm replacing the v2 and as I move up through the 1500s I'm replacing v2+

More Updates

I'm having a productive time going through the timelines with the new editor. In the last couple of days I've updated the following pages.

[1919e]
[1919.q1]
[1919.q2]
[1919.q3]
[1919.q4]
[Jazz Age]

The following 1920s pages are expansions of one page into four quarter pages.
[1920e]
[1920.q1]
[1920.q2]
[1920.q3]
[1920.q4]
[1921e]

I'm trying to decide whether to edit depth or breadth, depth would be inline linking and interlinking related events and breadth would be just getting more pages done and online. I'm going to try and concentrate on getting the existing 20th century pages done. I beleive they will almost all have to be quartered with event pages .. making that section about 250 pages long in of itself. I'm not sure if I have the room.

800 CE to 849 CE World History Timeline

I finally made an update at 800 CE to 849 CE World History Timeline. This also marks My making a database editor that is a little more geared to editing the timelines. I can now edit an entire page at the same time through a nifty little php script I cobbled together.
