We have content dupes due to the merge of the history and the timeline and we have a topic confilct. The production timeline aimed for short facts of things that happend to the final production. A history includes the full story, starts, options and fails, background information to understand the "why". So what's the goal?

Merge of history and production timeline?

We have content dupes due to the merge of the history and the timeline and we have a topic confilct. The production timeline aimed for short facts of things that happend to the final production. A history includes the full story, starts, options and fails, background information to understand the "why". So what's the goal? (two old comments cleared.) --double7 (talk) 15:49, 20 November 2013 (CET)

The idea is to have a fully explanative page featuring the whole process that is in sum something people can read up on and understand things. Idea, add the trade show appearances and presentations pandora has been to? A timeline extention might also be handy. --Kingu (talk) 21:35, 20 November 2013 (CET)

Could you please explain what "whole process" is in your mind? The history of the full story? Everything that happend around the pandora? --double7 (talk) 10:34, 21 November 2013 (CET)

We need more info

We need to add a bit more info to the timeline. Notably, the entire fiasco with the case factory is missing. Someone mind shedding some light on this?

Not quite sure what your point is? The fiasco with the case factory is pretty normal in the course of production. Did anything tangible occur in 2009? We saw a few iterations of the case, some software work, and I think 2010 started with the wifi no longer working. Maybe the case thing was the most visible outside the team, but thats how long these things take. It's still all on GP32X, so all it takes is for someone to go back and see if there are a few key items to pull out. I'd rather this page didn't end up being a 'why did it take so long' discussion - that can be something else if you want. If you want data, ask on the forum. --Tsh 11:09, 20 February 2011 (MET)

Table or heirachical list

I much prefer the format here which breaks each year down into headings rather than the 'stuff it all in a table' format, which has no benefit. I'll revert it unless anyone can justify the change.
