Terminator - Timeline

I gotta replace Terminator 2 with the Skynet Edition. It's the longer version, and... everyone knows about this. I feel like this can comfortably be called the Judgment Day timeline seeing as how this is the longest version of Terminator 2. We can just argue that every timeline branches off of this version on June 9th, 1995.
 
Also, I feel like The Terminator: Hunters and Killers could be in the Tempest Future War timeline just due to publishers, but honestly, I have no idea. It's fine where it is, I guess.
 
What about the novels and the Video Games missing? Like Future Shock and skyNET?
 
oh btw didn't Kyle Reese implied in Terminator 1 that Judgement Day happens in 1995?
 
Ik we could say that Reese is confused or just rounding it up, but idk. Earlier he remembered the events of Anhilation Line perfectly! Without a single error, and then he said the start date wrong?

Well, they confirmed that all the films are canon to the Terminator Zero animated series.

The show is standalone and doesn't directly connect to anything, but if you want a suggestion for how you should start your personal Terminator order, I think I have a suggestion.

Terminator Zero has Judgement Day occur in 1997, so if you want to fit it in linearly and not through multiple timeline resets (which adds in Terminator 3-6 too), then I'd suggest this.

Timeline 1
2027 - Terminator: Dawn of Fate

Timeline 2
2045 - Terminator Zero

Timeline 3
2022 - Terminator Zero

Timeline 4
1997 - Terminator Zero
2029 - Terminator: Resistance

Timeline 5
1984 - The Terminator
1995 - Terminator 2: Judgment Day
2027 - Terminator: Dawn of Fate

Timeline 6
1984 - The Terminator
1995 - Terminator 2: Judgment Day
2007 - Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

Really, though... Terminator Zero is canonically connected to all six films, which is supported by the RPG referencing Judgment Day going from 1997 (T1-2) to 2003 (NOW Comics?) to 2004 (T3-4) to 2011 (TSCC) back to 1997 (Genisys?), as well as the creators literally saying the other films are canon.

For a fanfic, I would recommend just picking a timeline that fits you best as being 100% in line, then adopt elements from other timelines as much as you like to show that they happened.

There's no reason why some of Terminator Zero's events couldn't have happened in a reality where Judgement Day didn't happen in 1997.

Technically it happens in 2011, pushed back from 1997 during T2. That's the start date, and the future war in that show lasts between 2011 to at least 2027.

That's the timeline in which the time travellers come from (though some of them come from slightly different JD 2011 timelines)... but the show ends with John Connor going forward in time to the future war, meaning that Judgment Day was never prevented and it still happens in 2011 in the shows timeline, where John Connor disappeared between 2009 and 2027.
