I've been interested in the history of the propagation of Maxwell's equations lately. Tried this, https://wiki-timeline.com/timeline/History_of_Maxwell%27s_eq

  hmm just tried https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Reddit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Reddit which is pretty structured. OP's tool proudes a fairly sparse result from that. By the way, why try to parse keywords and do a url lookup instead of accepting a wikipedia url natively?

    Thanks, good suggestion on accepting wikipedia URL natively, I actually started with that, but when I shared it with my friend, he though it takes extra step to get the wikipedia URL which may be not that user friendly. Although I guess I should support both ways. In terms the spare result, I am still experimenting with how granular the timeline should be. Although now I prompt AI to include as many events as possible, it's still a mystery to me how to precisely control it.

  Thanks for trying it out! Yeah, since I prompt to only include events where a date is available, it cannot output many events if article does not have much temporal info. Although your try there revealed a hard issue that I try to fix, that AI somehow output negative year for AD date although I tried hard asking it only do that for BC/BCE. I thought I fixed the issue, but obviously not for all cases.
