The timeline connects the map. Every row should eventually link sources, claims, entities, and pages. Dates are for the event or document, not when Muskularity wrote the row.

Rules
- Prefer primary URLs in the Sources column
- When schedules slip (Artemis, robotaxi cities), update the row and keep old wording in notes later
- Allegations stay “alleged” even on the timeline
