Timeline of GitHub does not align with the actual GitHub Wiki Page

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I noticed on your page that the founding dates for GitHub on the right info panel do not match the Timeline of GitHub wiki. The page says GitHub was founded and launched in 2001 when this is clearly not the case. It should have said something like founded in 2005, developed in 2007, and launched in 2008. Can one of your team members fix this problem at hand? It would be much appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:EC80:1400:47C:49BD:2AD7:172A:B240 (talk) 22:34, 11 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
