'''    This is my own, personal mash-up of all the timelines on the show    '''

If you want to help out, feel free to correct any spelling and grammar mistakes, but please do not make any changes to the actual timeline without my approval. However, if you notice something that is wrong or should be added, you can notify me, and I will look into it.

About the format The number one canon on the wiki, and my timeline, is the show, the show, and nothing but the show. '''Period. The end. Bye bye'''. Information from the writers, cast and crew, can be used as a supplement, but if they state something that is contradicted by the show itself, the wiki, and I, go with what the show says. So please don't tell me that Rumplestiltskin is 300 years old just because Robert Carlyle said so, because that is not what the show says. Or, if Adam says in an interview that Emma's birthday is October 23: sorry, but no; according to the show, her birthday is October 22., not 23.

That is not to say, that the show's timeline is perfect. Sometimes the show makes mistakes and contradicts itself, and I've done my best to note this when this happens.

Note that this timeline only covers events that take place on-screen; however, important off-screen events can be mentioned in story notes.

''The entries for the present day events usually include information about the number of days that the story spans. Note that I use "days" as a designation for for the period of time that passes from 12:AM at night (00:00) to 12:AM the following night (or possibly a few hours after midnight - they don't always tell us what time it is, even though it's dark outside). This means that if an episode takes place over the course of two days, for instance, it means that it starts on one day, and concludes the following day, even though less than a 24-hour day may have passed.''

Enjoy :-)
