* I'd like to see a little more coverage of events in the 19th century (or previous centuries) prior to Fabianism, particularly key milestones around socialism and communism as well as other intellectual precursors to Fabianism:
 +
** Marxism
 +
** Revolutionary socialism (French Revolution??)
 +
** Renaissance and Age of Enlightenment that set the backdrop for socialism / capitalism debates
 +
* I think a column for country/region could be helpful for sorting out. Most of the rows will be Britain, but some will be other countries and some will be more specific areas (such as London)
 +
* For Nehru, there is a row about his role in implementing Fabian policies in India, but none about his original exposure to Fabian ideas and his joining the Fabian Society. For some others, it's the other way around. I think in all cases of international influence, where possible, we should include a row for the original exposure and a row for when it affected the other country's policies.
 +
* It would also be good to have rows on how Fabianism declined in influence, or at least as a recognizable brand, both within the United Kingdom and internationally. The timeline currently reads a bit triumphalist, suggesting that Fabianism has gone from strength to strength, but my crude guess is that Fabianism declined or at least faded into the background in the mid-to-late 20th century (maybe it had a bit of a revival more recently?). For instance, the rise of Thatcherism in the late 20th century probably means Fabianism declined in influence? Also, in India, the liberalization efforts that started in the 1980s and picked up in the 1990s were indicative of India moving away from Fabian ideals?
 +
* Is there any commentary we can make about how Fabianism and the Fabian Society have adapted to the Internet and the World Wide Web? The original social networks were highly in-person, as the initial portion of your timeline vividly demonstrates. I wonder how Fabianism has adapted to the Internet and whether it has spawned active online communities, or whether it's still mostly offline.
 +
* Also, please consider updating the big picture as well to reflect and summarize the changes you make through the timeline.

* 1883 Laveleye: Fabian Society doesn’t exist yet, but the row suggests that Laveleye is reacting to it. Can you clarify?
 +
* Rows for George Bernard Shaw and Bernard Shaw joining -- duplicates? Also confusing that there’s another George in the picture (Henry George) also mentioned in the latter row as just George.
 +
* Present tense instead of past tense: "was evident with the introduction of the Education Act 1902." should be "is" instead of "was"
 +
* Present tense instead of past tense: "Clement Attlee, a future prime minister, received his first ministerial post at this time." should be "receives" instead of "received"
 +
* "141 members of the Fabian Society are elected to Parliament." It will be good to provide context by giving the total number of elected members to give a sense of what the 141 should be compared with.
