#479 Describe the project on its GitHub repository: description, website, topics

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: athanclark

AI assistants and search engines describe a project from its GitHub repository among other places. Ours says little about what the project is:

Field	Now	Proposed
Description	"The app for viewing and editing timelines"	"OpenChronology: a free, open-source timeline editor for exact dates at any scale, from deep time to fractions of a second, with sources on every event. Web, desktop and self-hosted."
Website	(empty)	https://timescale.info
Topics	(none)	timeline, chronology, history, timeline-editor, bce-dates, digital-humanities, self-hosted, tauri, postgresql, incident-timeline
Social preview	(default)	the site's social-preview.jpg, a timeline in the editor

Also:

• The README's first lines: open with one sentence saying what it is, in the words of the description, and link to timescale.info.
• The organization profile (openchronology): the same one-line description and the site's link.

These are settings on GitHub. The description and website can also be set with gh repo edit openchronology/timeline-app --description … --homepage https://timescale.info --add-topic ….

Found in an AI-search audit of timescale.info on 2026-11-06.
