I have two questions about this. First was the change from \\\"grease\\\" to \\\"grace\\\" correct, and secondly, what is this a reference to?

The only complaint you have that is actually valid is that the page is rapidly becoming one big WallOfText, which is an issue of formatting, not content. We could folderize the different timelines, or split them into separate pages much like the Homestuck examples, {{WMG}}s, and character sheet are. (This is probably a good idea, actually. I freely admit that parts of it could use streamlining, but much of the lengthiness comes from the fact that Homestuck is a lengthy comic. \'\'Any\'\' page relating to it will rapidly become overloaded. Look at all of the other Homestuck pages--most of them are either folderized or split, and the ones that aren\'t probably should be.)

The recaps do not provide information in chronological order, nor do they include, by their nature, any events which occurred after the most recent recap. Also, the MSPA wiki does not have a comprehensive timeline; such information is scattered throughout its many pages. A timeline page is thus hardly redundant.

The recaps do not provide information in chronological order, nor do they include, by their nature, any events which occurred after the most recent recap. (Which is hundreds of pages out of date by now.) Also, the MSPA wiki does not have a comprehensive timeline; such information is scattered throughout its many pages, making figuring out the actual order of events a matter of hours of intensive wiki-hopping and detective work rather than a few minutes of reading a single page. A timeline page is thus hardly redundant.

Also, the timeline most certainly \'\'is\'\' a timeline. If you have to resort to guesswork to figure out when things fall, you\'re just being lazy; the information is there, if you\'re willing to look for it.

Outright deleting everything and linking out to preexisting recaps is going too far, though, not mention missing the entire point of this page. It\'s not a recap. If it were, it would be in the recaps namespace, and be done in an entirely different style. It\'s a listing of all the events in Homestuck in chronological order, as close as we can manage.
