Inspired by [this MSO question](https://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/183981/how-do-you-view-vote-history-for-a-question-or-answer-or-add-some-sort-of-vote).

This tiny userscript will add a link to the timeline for any post, just below the "favorite question" star button.

Example image:

This is the code:

    // ==UserScript==

    }
        
Feel free to submit any bugs, feature requests and comments on the script.

This script was tested with the following settings:

 - Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20130520 Firefox/20.0 PaleMoon/20.1-x64
 - SO and MSO pages, other SE pages will probably work (please tell me if they don't!)
 - Greasemonkey 1.9
