1. Open the English or German month overview.
2. Choose a day. Links are already provided for dates that still need entries.
3. Add the year, a short factual description and preferably a primary source.
4. Add the corresponding entry in the other language. Dates and identifiers must match.

A day can contain several events. Do not copy an event to other dates to fill gaps. Announcements, first shipments and later shutdowns are distinct events.

Use the separate “In this month” page, for example March. Do not guess a day or assign the event to the first of the month.

The BBS reader fetches these pages on the first request of the day. Keep year, description, source link and unique identifier as separate fields. German entries use Quelle: and Kennung:. Changes appear on the next daily fetch or after an explicit refresh by the sysop.
