Since, the subject of editing the "Quickstart" section has come up it may also be a good idea to remove the timelines for CivRev and Civclassics from this section. Neither of these are anywhere near important information for a "Quickstart" now, as civclassics has been down for nearly 2 years at this point so its history isn't relevant to a "quickstart" and similarly CivRev is no longer up either and its history is not relevant to a "Quickstart" at this point.
::I do agree that Civ101 should be added to the main page, which I'll do soon. However, as a reminder, this is a wiki for all Civ servers, not just CivMC, and we don't have a timeline for CivMC quite yet. Showing history is important on the wiki to show the genre's depth, so I don't really like the idea of removing the timelines. There is a lot of space on the "quickstart" section, and I do think history is worth keeping. -- [[User:Specificlanguage|Specificlanguage]] ([[User talk:Specificlanguage|talk]]) 17:09, 1 September 2023 (UTC) I do agree that history is important too.
::Maybe a new box could be added below quick start entitled something along the lines of culture/history of civ/the genre. I feel like links put under the title of "Quickstart" are implied to be relevant to getting a quick start in currently active servers. However, the two timelines under the title currently - although historically relevant - actually have little relevance to any of the currently active servers or to any of the ones in development. So I feel like to keep that section along the lines of information needed for a "quickstart" it'd be better to move them to a "intro to the culture/history of the genre" section instead. As in reality none of the information in either of the timelines is really something new players need to be reading to obtain a quickstart. I'd say that if a CivMC timeline is created, or if timelines are created for any other active server, then those would belong in the Quickstart section as they'd be relevant to getting a quickstart on those servers. -- Solitaire7
