The concept!
See- Implausable Alternate History Wiki:About
This wiki is an Alternate History wiki, but it's supposed to be a more enjoyable Alternate History wiki.
Many people claim that if it didn’t happen, it couldn’t happen, or that if it had certain pros and cons they would always stay that way for a person, peoples, or nations entire history, even if certain developments change the entire time frame forever, that no matter what, they are stuck with those problems for eternity. Things would always change, even slightly, someone who was important died, or someone who died OTL didn't die. Different outcomes of battles, a storm here and there, someone build a colony here instead of there.
Things could be divergent if something minor changed with a unlucky accident killing Sir Winston Churchill as a child and/or Adolf Hitler unexpectedly dying in a battle on the fields of Flanders.
People think that if you lost, you were born to lose, even if one inch forward could have made you win. Well, things not always like that, and I don’t think they always have. Yes, some people have been destined to lose a fight, like Japan against the nuke, they were gonna lose no matter what after the US got the atomic bomb, but if one of those scientists had been absent one or two days, America might never have had the bomb in time, and been forced to sign a conditional peace treaty with Japan.
But my main focus right now isn’t about Japan in WW2, or Japan at all, its about alternate history itself, that's what alternate history means, it may not have happened, but it could have.
That is to say-
100% reality can be fun, but as long it sounds believable, then reality can get frayed at the edges, but not too ridiculous, on this wiki. No robot space ninjas, E.T.s, Cybermen, Borg, wizards or other supernatural elements!

Important Users on this Wiki.
Check out the Department of Implausibility! Meet the brass, lieutenants, and constables guarding these timelines from the "implausibility hunters." This wiki hopes to show that implausible timelines, with a bit of looking after can grow and blossom into something great. The same idea could also be applied to the creators of those TLs as well.
