Add "Related Document" field to Historical Events in timelines

Content Addition · Timelines · Created by LittleSister

At the the moment, when creating an event in timelines the expanded prompts allow us to attach related characters, organizations, locations, items and species. It has a section for related articles, but since a recent update, this seems to only apply to generic articles without a template.   I would really like to be able to link to related documents. Although I was previously using the generic articles, with the update that is no longer possible. Beyond this, though, I actually think a separate field would be a useful category for historical events in particular.   I personally have a timeline that is just the literary history of the world, so every historical event in the timeline would benefit from a Related Document field. But beyond this, documents are often commonly associated with historical events. Things like treaties, publications, certificates, reports, newspaper articles, and probably others, are all documents that are tied to a date and therefore it makes sense that (at least sometimes) Historical Events would be enhanced by a Related Document field.   I am therefore requesting a field be added to the prompts in Historical Events for Related Documents. Thank you for considering my suggestion.

Good idea! This has been added to our backlog and will be part of a future update.
