Ideas for edits:


 * Change the title to something slightly more in-universe, such as "Oceania" (which is largely what the original 1984 entry dealt with) or even "Oceania Timeline." The opening paragraph would make it clear that this is an alternate timeline, and a section can be added at the beginning showing the point of divergence.


 * Wait, if the ending of Atlas Shrugged (book) is changed so that the heroes meet defeat in this alternate timeline, what does that mean for Atlas Shrugged's place in the main timeline? A question that merits some real thought, I think.


 * Perhaps it would do us well to add additional sections further exploring the world of 1984, such as what exactly Big Brother is, the Thought Police, and other details.


 * It would be awesome to actually incorporate "The Unknown Citizen" (poem) and Brazil (film) into the article itself instead of just saying they're also set in the world, which I feel was pretty lame and uncreative of myself.


 * I'll also edit the references so that it's in line with the other ones.

I can do these edits myself, but what do you think of them?

By the way, while transferring encyclopedia entries into this wiki, don't bother with entries as short as the one for Aeneid.
