Remove from list when updated to contract work page [https://contractwork.vipulnaik.com/worker.php?worker=Sebastian+Sanchez] and [https://github.com/vipulnaik/contractwork/blob/master/contributor-lists/sebastian-sanchez-list.mediawiki].
* [[Timeline of face masks]] (new timeline):
** '''Vipul's reasons for marking as priority work''':
*** '''Topicality''': The role of face masks in combating COVID-19 has received a lot of attention.
*** '''Existence value''': Face masks seem like an important topic to understand, given the role they may play in infection control.
** Feedback:
*** I think for the big picture, 20th century could be broken down into first half of 20th century (widespread use in hospitals) and second half of 20th century (increased mainstreaming esp. in Asia, and in the context of pandemics)✔
*** For 21st century, I'm wondering if pre-COVID (till 2019) and COVID (2020) should be separated. This will be a roughly "equal" splitting by importance or amount of information.✔
*** I think it would be good to have a table giving a summary of the broad categories of masks/respirators, along with high-level information on origin, rise to popularity, and advantages and disadvantages. Probably you can crib something from Wikipedia and tweak some columns. Also, would a "mask type" column make sense for the full timeline?✔/✘
**** Sebastian: There's not enough amount of events differentiating among cloth face masks.
**** Sebastian: I'm thinking in a page like [https://timelines.issarice.com/wiki/Comparison_of_methods_of_malaria_control this], centered in face masks and airborne transmissions.

=== By January 1, 2024 (start/continue any time from January 1, 2022 onward) === * [[Timeline of 4GFacebook]] (new timeline)** '''Vipul's reasons for marking this as priority work''':*** '''Pageview potential''': Judging by how well [[timeline Timeline of 5GUber]] is doing == Suggested time-sensitive content == With time-sensitive content, the idea may be to add a few additional important recent events to a timeline of 4G , without doing a systematic expansion. So, there may also do reasonably well (Ibe holes in coverage. The "focused coverage period" banner on top can help to clarify the situation. For instance, let'm guessing that it'll get at least 20% of the pageviews of s say you last expanded a timeline of 5Gin March 2019, which should still be enough and it covers content till March 2019. You want to justify creationadd a couple of significant events in 2020. You can do so, particularly considering and keep the focused coverage period as March 2019. So readers get the information that updates the coverage after March 2019 will not have be only partial, and less complete than coverage until March 2019. In some cases you may decide to do a more complete expansion while adding time-sensitive content, but this should be that frequentdone only if time and mood permit. * [[Timeline of online food delivery]] (one of the most viewed timelines):** COVID-19 has probably boosted online food delivery a lot? This may deserve a mention.✔** DoorDash IPO (filed for one on November 13, IPO date still unclear)✘*** Sebastian: It filed confidentially on February 27, 2020, but maybe we should wait until it becomes effective, as it remains private as of date.* [[Timeline of nonprofit evaluation]]:** Add the acquisition of ImpactMatters by Charity Navigator.✔
