If the naruto Anime was on the list then filler being canon would be a somewhat valid argument but it is not. Veey specifically the manga is referenced. Not the anime. Chapters. Not episodes. I don't know why you think a timeline needs to be exhaustive when in reality timelines are almost always just summaries of the history about something. Timelines usually stick to important events i.e. not anime filler. I can make a timeline but me not including the small things doesn't mean I'm implying they didn't happen. Chapters between 1 and 700 aren't on there anyway. Are they not canon either?
