Alternate History Wikia Realness Scale
So, I have thought of something, just sorta my way to critique different Timelines posted on this website. And, that result is the:

How does it work? Well, I take a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is "This is Alternate History? As if!" and 10 being "OMG! Why DIDN'T this happen?", and every number in between.
So, Quickly, I'm going to do some quick judgements on several well known Timelines of the Wikia, and many not so wellknown, including my own, so here I go:
- 1983: Doomsday = 9 (duh)
- Central World = 8
- French Trafalgar, British Waterloo = 7.5
- One Small Step for a Socialist... - 7.25
- Washington Shot at Murdering Town! = 7.25
- Napoleon's World = 7
- Twilight of a New Era (1914-1964) = 6.75
- Perez Jimenez's Venezuela = …
Need some help..
I'm having a case of the Wikia not liking me today. On this page, Nations (French Trafalgar, British Waterloo), I have spent the time and energy to make a chart of every nation, alphabetically, based on their continent, and the defunct nations of my world.
Now, The problem I'm having is that I put titles above the charts about what continent they are on, but the Wikia decided that, no, the title will list a different chart. The first one, the America's, has nothing, as that chart is under the Asia, Africa and Oceania title. The defunct nations is in between the Asia, Africa and Oceania chart (whose title is Europe) and Europe chart, which is under the Defunct Nations heading.
Now, I don't ask for much, but if someone could figure this out, or …
Open Letter About 1983: Doomsday
To: All those that have worked on 1983: Doomsday in the past and present;
I had to write this. I've been holding this in for a while, and I need to get it out:
To be honest, I did not join AltHistory Wikia because of 1983: DD. However, I have to say, finding it has been a treat.
So much work has been put into it: realism, referencing, creativity, the utterly massive discussions on what would otherwise be insignificant or unimportant events. I mention this especially after reading the NBC-TV News Broadcast and Associated Press teletype reports articles I read earlier today. It made me actually pause for a moment, and realize Oh my God. That is what could have happened. I was utterly dumbfounded after that moment: stupefied that someone would actual…
Unfair!
I want to call your attention to a problem with the badges: THEY DON'T COUNT HALF THE STUFF YOU DO!
I have made numerous edits to the page Assiniboia (1983: Doomsday); six by now: the majority of them being large new improvements to the article. But, still, I have only ONE edit counted toward the "Arising from the Ashes" Badge. I have some minor changes to other 1983:DD articles, and still, I only have one edit.
Do I have to go and edit the major pages to get the edits counted? Or do I just have to type in over hundred words to get it? Because, my expertise is with this article, so I had very little intention of trying to delve into other articles.
What the "bleep" is going on here?!?! If the community is going to have these badges, they might…
11,000 pages!
Whoo! We have just reached eleven thousand pages! I have no idea who had the honor of making the 11,000th page, but congrats!
