From TSMWIKI
Concharto is an online encyclopedic atlas of history and happenings that anyone can edit. It is a geographic wiki that gives you simple and elegant answers to hard questions like "What interesting things happened near where I am driving? What happened near our hotel in Paris? What is happening near my town and surrounding areas? What was New York City like from 1858 to 1869?"

Search
Enter a place, a time and a text filter and click "search" or if you want to find out what happened on the map you are viewing, just hit search without filling any thing in. All fields are optional.
Add or Edit
It's all about events! Anyone can add an event and anyone can edit an event.
View or Undo Changes
It isn't a wiki if you can't view or undo changes. You can see both text and geographical changes and easily revert back to an older version. All changes are tracked!
Discuss
Discussion is the lifeblood of a good wiki. Did Napoleon really win the battle of Borodino 1812?
If you want to discuss something about an event, simply click on the discuss link. If no discussion exists, you can create one.
Flag for removal
Some things just don't belong on the Atlas. Anyone can flag an event for removal and it will be reviewed and removed if necessary. Of course it is always better to correct the event if possible, but there are good reasons for removal. For example:
- It is a duplicate of something someone else entered
- It is not encyclopedic (see our policies)
- It is totally fake
