This is an extensive list of 8,000 history-related articles I believe are vital to the global Wikipedia community. This list is designed to represent the articles on the most notable topics in different areas of the field of history. As it is difficult to compare the notability of historical topics in different areas of that field, the list is intended to be based on quotas for each field. This list requires extensive refinement and prioritization on the basis of topic-by-topic analysis.
