* [[Timeline of GiveWell]]
** I think the big picture might be too detailed, and also has a non-uniform structure. What I'm thinking is to have two sections in the big picture, one for the really big picture and one for highlights by year (the latter is like what you currently have). For the really big picture, I am thinking of these time periods: 2006-2008 (founding, controversies, initial struggles), 2009-2010 (site visits, growth in money moved, stabilization), 2011-2012 (injection of Good Ventures money, standardization of annual cycles), 2013-2014 (move to San Francisco, growth of GiveWell Labs), 2015 onward (separation of GiveWell Labs, renaming as Open Phil, more growth of GiveWell the organization (minus GiveWell Labs/Open Phil)). Basically I want this big picture to give a zoomed-out story and not be too bogged down in specifics of money moved.
** I suggest removing the growth of GiveWell tables for now, because we should ultimately get a newer version of this table from the data in Org Watch. But we can wait till we have better data from Org Watch before removing.
** It might be worth adding Wikipedia view and Google Trends data similar to that in [[timeline of Bay Area Rapid Transit]].
** Using guidance at [[domain names in timelines]], add rows for the registration/transfer to GiveWell of givewell.net, givewell.org, and givewell.com. I believe GiveWell first started out at givewell.net only, then acquired givewell.org and moved to that as their main domain, and more recently acquired givewell.com which they redirect to givewell.org
** Maybe add a row for creation of the Wikipedia page
** GiveWell used to have a wiki -- talk about the launch and later removal of the wiki?
** Cover the 2019 board membership changes https://www.givewell.org/changes-in-board-membership
** Maybe cover more past board membership changes
