Closing pending backlog resolution, also because the UN-trope difference in this context does not look very important.

Hollywood History has an identity crisis where it tries to be two (or more) things at once, namely an index for "Period stereotype tropes" (e.g. Bible Times, One Million BC, The Dung Ages, The Future, etc.) and useful notes-style articles (Torres Strait Islanders, Torres Strait Islanders, The Great Northern War, The Mexican Revolution, etc.). For some reason several media are also listed as 'periods' such as The Bible and The Trojan Cycle.
This appears to be an artifact of the time when useful notes articles were treated as 'tropes', but the policy has changed so that these are not supposed to be listed as tropes, nor have trope lists themselves because of its being off-mission. Many of these articles are already indexed on Wars In History. There is also a history index on the main Useful Notes page.
Solution: Make the list more centric on the "Period stereotype tropes" mentioned above. This list would look something like this:
Prehistory:
Ancient times:
Middle Ages:
Modern age:
The 19th century
20th century:
The 21st century
The future
Other:
Thoughts?
