[edit] format

As I was discussing the FL candidacy of Timeline of tuberous sclerosis, I came to notice that the layout used used on this page was, at best, subpar. Using a table makes little sense when other formats are more useful. Since the other timeline looks like it will use a definition list format (see Help:List for how it works and WP:LAME for an example), I'm considering switching this one. I've made a converted version at User:Circeus/temp, any thoughts? Circeus 18:33, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Looks nice. The only problem I see is that is hard to see what counts as a different event in each year. Could you use bulleted lists or a larger paragraph separation to distinguish different events? --best, kevin [kzollman][talk] 19:11, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
Don't mean to dissent, but I kind of liked the old format. The blue shading and lines made it look more professional. Gastro guy 06:22, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
