Okay. I had two options in mind, though I'm not sure about which is best:
1) in the embedding code, write a list of all the Wikidata pages.
2) or tag Wikidata pages (like a category, maybe even a category) and
simply pass this category as parameter. This would be translation-friendly,
the updates being in sync across all language.
Or maybe another option, I don't really know.

Hi Joan,
It seems that historical event is on the proposed property list:
http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal#Historical_Event_.2…
It has been more than three days, so my understanding is that it can be
officially created now so people can start adding them to the database.
Someone else will have to answer your question about extending Mediawiki to
render timelines automatically though. On the database side, we would just
have to make sure there is enough granularity in the database (for example
under the domain for the historical event as currently proposed) to allow
the software to find just the dates that are relevant for a specific
article.

Subject: [Wikidata-l] Chronological axes in Wikidata
Being a high school (15) student who likes programming, I often develop
software to help me (&fellow students) study. In two days time we have a
history exam with a ton of dates to learn, so I began thinking of a way to
represent it in an axis via a web page.
And Wikidata came to my head. I guess it could be really useful, given the
property system (it could take into account single events and also periods
such as wars). I'll try to do it (obviously, I'm now in term exams though
it could be an incredible way to procrastinate...), but anyway, is there
any interest in this? I guess it could replace the current rather
awkward-looking axes.
From a technical viewpoint, could it be feasible to make it as an
extension to Mediawiki which displays HTML5? I have some experience with
MediaWiki's PHP but not much.
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my non-native Englisn,
Joan Creus.
