Timeline of TwitterHistory of Twitter – Article has very little content and isn't beneficial for an overall understanding of the topic. I intend to convert the content in here to prose once this move has been completed. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 04:23, 31 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Can we please move this back? Its very clearly a (bad) timeline article in line with other timelines of social networks. I agree Twitter needs a proper history page like Facebook and Youtube, but this really isnt a good base for it, and should be left as is (with some improvements). If you wanna start a draft of an actual prose history article feel free to do so. jonas (talk) 22:29, 6 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
Re: We now have extensive articles on Elons Twitter Acquisition as well as individual event like the Thursday Night Massacre. The last month has more and better coverage than the entire previous history of the site, excluding the section in Social media use by Donald Trump. There needs to be a proper prose History of Twitter article, and this list should be moved back to Timeline of Twitter and at most be used as a general outline. --jonas (talk) 12:09, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Splitting out into post-acquisition history of Twitter edit

I created History of Twitter (October 2022-present), but it appears it's been moved to draftspace and won't be moved back unless I make this talk page message. I believe that, assuming this article is turned into prose, much of the content will cover actions taken by Elon Musk following his acquisition of Twitter. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 04:04, 19 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
