Editorial Policy

TimelineSphere aims to be a trustworthy, enjoyable way to learn history. These principles guide how we research, write, and maintain our timelines.

Accuracy first

We compile timelines from reputable references and cross-check key dates and facts. When historical sources disagree, we favour widely accepted scholarship and note significant uncertainty where relevant.

Clarity and neutrality

We present events in plain, readable language and aim for a neutral, respectful tone — especially for sensitive historical subjects. Our goal is to inform, not to editorialize.

Sourcing

Where appropriate, timelines reference the material they draw from. See our Sources page for an overview of the kinds of references we rely on.

Corrections

We treat corrections seriously. If a reader reports a credible error, we review it and update the content. You can report issues through the Contact page.

Independence

Editorial decisions are made independently of any commercial relationships. Content is chosen for its historical interest and value to readers.
