I think with this (and the others) it would be better if you had the ''date'' it was released rather than just the year. Would make sorting tables into chrono order soooo much easier... [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 02:13, 11 May 2012 (CDT)

:The main reason I haven't is that I'm worried it will encourage people to put the full date into the tables. What are you thoughts? Also, with the tables, does it really matter if they are in EXACT chronological order? I thought we only cared about the year?? (P.S. Thanks for the feedback.
