HiStory

Should only include histories of eras, fields and countries that are now defunct...because otherwise, you should probably just put it on the appropriate country or field page.

These broad era statements seemed like a good idea when I first thought of them, but in hindsight I think they should be broken up, e.g. BronzeAgeOfMiddleEast or some such. This would go hand-in-hand with factoring out some silly mistakes. Any opinions before I go ahead? -- JoshuaGrosse

The usual way to divide history up is by nation or region and then by historical period. If you really care about this, you should consult with a historian, I think. -- LarrySanger
