Seems redundant to History of Lego, which covers the company history, and List of Lego themes, which covers the all the product ranges and the dates they were launched and discontinued. McGeddon (talk) 07:26, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: timeline articles are perfectly acceptable on Wikipedia even if they contain redundant information. See Timeline of chemistry which is a featured article and contains information already found in History of chemistry, their purpose is about presentation rather than containing new information. Also List of Lego themes is not redundant to Lego timeline, the former only focuses on Lego products whereas the later looks at things like Lego movies, company history, etc.AioftheStorm (talk) 18:29, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: Lego timeline lists and state important 'years' of major events of a family own company history. Not just product or theme timeline, but when the company started and what happen that made important decisions depending on the year. History of Lego page is just a 'VERY' general information. It does not list or state important details that lead to major events. Please understand there is a difference between Lego as the brand or product, and the history of the Lego company and The Lego Group. If the Lego timeline is deleted. The information of important events, themes, products and people within the company will be gone for good. I don't know what is wrong having a timeline listing major events/themes about the company and not just about the toy Lego. GoTLG (talk) 01:41, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
