Thanks. And fair enough, Paul. Honestly, I'm appalled by the lack of citations and believe this is Knowledge's greatest weakness. Much of what's entered without citations is accurate, I have no doubt. I'm also convinced that too much is unsourced and is less than accurate. And then decades go by

Three citations for 500+ years of history? That means nothing can be verified. It also means any editor who wants to can remove what's here. So, consider this: if you add to the timeline without a source to point to, your work will most likely be replaced in the future because there's nothing to

I saw no mention of the Dust Bowl or Great Depression whatsoever. These are major, important events in Kansas history. This directly influenced Kansas as a modern state, and it is not mentioned. Yet there are mentions of Native American battles and moves. Yes, these are important, but if you are

And exactly which of these sources applies to which "fact"? How can anything be verified without citations using this approach? What "guideline" says this is acceptable? I'm not suggesting deleting. Wouldn't think of it. I'm suggesting that editors abide by our values and in so doing, serve our

And I just realized I had already added the template and then saw your comment. To tell you the truth, I hate these templates. But they do serve a good purpose. Seldom does anyone clean up an entire article, but at least future editors are discouraged from adding material without a source.

Also, it mentions the Populist's revolt in the shortened timeline, but not in the long one. The only way to find out what it is was to follow the link, which was about the People's Party. It took a lot of scrolling to reach where it talked about it.

P.S. What I said was not a threat. I was pointing out that editors could well be wasting their time because more diligent future editors are likely to replace their well-intentioned unsourced work.

I'll remove the inline tag after a bit if no one put some refs in (such as by the person who 1st put the referece tag in the articl in the 1st place) ... as this timeline was gotten from

I was wondering why they didn't have the great depression on here the 20s was a big era of all of america. Why didn't this show information about how Kansas went through with the GD.

No, it just means that there needs to be significant editing. For example, the bullet point "1830: Indian Removal Act expedites the process of Indian removal." links to the article

going to leave out the Dust Bowl and Great Depression you may as well leave them out as well.
