I was intrigued by the question of who composed this Wikipedia "timeline of category theory". A closer look at the article's history shows that the list of entries was almost entirely created by a single user, "Fotino", between September 2008 and July 2009.
Fotino is Rafael Borowiecki, who also contributed the timeline to the nLab: http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/Timeline+of+category+theory+and+related+mathema... There it has received some edits and criticism, but was mostly ignored, and in fact has not yet had the wiki-syntax fully converted yet. --Toby [For admin and other information see: http://www.mta.ca/~cat-dist/ ]
