Thank you so much for your templates and such clear explanations! I'm a historian writing my PhD, and I was looking for a way to organize all the events while also cross-referencing different sources. Your way of doing it works wonderfully, thank you ❤

Hello! This is actually simply epic, I write stories and I've been looking for ways to create a timeline of events in Notion. I sort of wished I could use dates that surpassed Notion's calendar limitations and at the same time view them in timeline mode, because I thought that would be best, but the way you showed how to group them, let's say by century, is just awesome because it does the same thing, but practically better. Thank you so much for that!

Hey thanks for the template.. This is really really helpful.. It was nightmare using the timeline tool.. I am a writer who has to write some historical timelines and this has been of great help! Thanks a lot for this.. I had no clue Notion could be customized to this extent!! Appreciate your effort in making this video Red..

This is amazing! Thank you so much for making the tutorial and template!! I have been trying to make a timeline for notion for so long and couldn't figure out the best way to organize it for all the functions I wanted it to do. This is perfect and I'm so grateful that you've shared it and helped us understand how to use it. Thanks!!!

I still remember when you were hoping to have 10k subscribers. At that time it’s maybe 5k. NOW OVER 22k and growing. 🙌….🙏 continued success.

OMG I've been looking for something like this since I'm into Roman history. Would love to do something like this with Roman emperors as well! Thanks!

[edparson]

This is awesome! I’ve been waiting for this video for ages. I study history in different countries and I was wondering how would you align events happening at the same time around the globe during the course of history. Considering that calendars would be different. I’ve also emailed you more details.
Keep up good work Red. Thanks

[DedenHabibi]

It is genius! Thank you, Red. You save my PhD life

[TheAltivoo]

perfect perfect perfect, exactly this 🙌🙏

Good Job. my question is: how to deal with BC dates? This method only works with year 1 till today. If i want to put ancient Roman Empire events, then i can't for most of the data because years <=0 aren't accepted and return "Invalid date format".

[katjaehrhardt]

Thanks for that, I will recommend this to my university, we have been looking for a way to make historical timelines :) I started using it but wonder how to put dates BC - can you help?

[simonwatkins]

Oh this is way above me understanding. But I will level up.
