Purpose
The template {{event list}} allows a 1-column, 2-column, 3-column or more table of events to be added to an article describing events over time. The template allows the easy addition of date-stamped events, and the easy addition or insertion or removal of events as the article evolves over time without editors having to worry about table syntax, adjusting and balancing rows or columns, etc. It produces a table consisting of pairs of dates and corresponding event descriptions, by default in 2...
Expanding skeleton
The expanding skeleton is better to use if it is likely that more dates will be added in between earlier dates as the article is developed. No renaming of parameters is required each time a new date and event description is inserted.
Named skeleton
The named skeleton is better to use if the chronology is stable and clarity of date and event description relationships is required, with modifiable parameter layouts, for example for grouping events of the same type together for editing purposes but when appearing in the correct chronological order are intermixed.
Named parameters in groups, 30 events in 2 columns
Example of events defined in groups, rather than order as displayed.
