Scope of template
@
Serendipodous: has re-added the articles that are not millennia and I think should not be here. Those are
Timeline of the far future,
Timeline of prehistory and
Timeline of natural history. The scope of those articles is in the hundreds of thousands of years in the case of prehistory and in the hundreds of millions of years in the other two. Thus I think they should not be part of this template.

That is not true, those articles are not part of
Category:Millennia, so they should not be part of the template either.

No, they shouldn't because they are not millennia. They are longer time scales. Yes, you could say they are made of millennia, but by the same logic, they should also be added to the categories for centuries, decades and years.

Century, decade and year titles don't redirect to those articles; millennia do. Serendipodous 21:57, 5 January 2021 (UTC)reply
