I'd suggest merging this page into the various subpages of Timeline of United States history. -- Quiddity (talk) 19:26, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The wikipedia History main page states that the term history comes from the Greek historia (ἱστορία), "an account of one's inquiries,". This article doses not reflect that (Wikipedia) definition. There is not much enquiry going on here, more of a eulogy. For instance, one of the main threads in (early) US history was the mass ethnic cleansing, displacement, and acts of genocide against the native americans. There can be disagreement about the morality of these events, but there can be no disagreement about their _importance_ in US history. Yet there is zero mention of this episode: this is a major flaw in this article. Surely there are a few scholars in US history (I am not such an expert) that could fill this important gap in the article? Hopefully they can do so without fear? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pmurnion (talk • contribs) 20:40, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
These are the remaining links from the latest link harvest, that have not yet been placed in the hierarchy in the "By subject" section.

Any help would of course be appreciated. The Transhumanist 12:33, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation. The Transhumanist 00:01, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Michael7604, while I appreciate consistency, I'm not sure it + avoiding what is the least obtrusive form of demonym (i.e. one with identical spelling) is worth the extra clunkiness of the new title? Remsense诉 04:47, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
