Note 1: This chronology attempts, whenever/wherever possible, to order things by Stardate, and relies on a number of "missing" Stardates that may or may not be Canonical depending on your own point of view.

Note 2: Any assistance/suggestions people could give me in terms of arranging/ordering the episodes for DS9 Season 6/Voyager Season 4 and DS9 Season 7/Voyager Season 5 would be greatly appreciated.

Note 3: First post updated to place Dax back in production/story order in spite of its Stardate.

Note 4: First post updated to correct an unconscious error I'd made in accidentally flipping Sanctuary and The Alternate

Regardless of stardates, I wouldn't split multi-parters that way. No way there's time for four eps of VOY between Homefront and Paradise Lost, or seven eps of DS9 between Basics part 1 and 2.
 
^ Actually, there is. Homefront's Stardate is 49170.65 (placing its events in March), while Paradise Lost's Stardate is 49364 (placing its events in May). That's a gap of a little more than 2 months.

As for Basics 1 and 2, the Stardate I have for Part 1 is 49700.0 (placing its events in September), with the listed Stardate for Part 2 being 50032.7 (placing its events in January, which is a gap of about 4 months.

Both DS9 and Voyager had a habit of jumping ahead significantly in time between the events of Parts 1 and 2 of some of their multiparters.

And that's why I ignore stardates. Four months have passed and they all still look exactly the way they did in the previous ep? They're still looking for shelter and water. Part 2 clearly picks up very soon after part 1.
 
Aside from Lifesigns and Investigations, Voyager was diligent and meticulous in its use of Stardates (as was DS9), so it makes no sense to ignore Stardates because you're basically ignoring narrative intent by doing so.

If Stardates weren't important, they wouldn't have been used.

Anyway, this is getting somewhat off-subject. Does anybody have suggestions as to how to chronologically arrange DS9 Season 6/Voyager Season 4 and DS9 Season 7/Voyager Season 5?

Where did you get the stardate for Basics Part 1 with 49700? I did not find anything about this particular date?
 
ok, you already answered my question. Nevertheless it is not really convinving...I also would not put Basic Part 1 in September and Part 2 in January.

Regarding the Basics 1 Stardate, I cribbed it from another user's post in a thread that was posted on here a few years back:

So not from the show itself. "If Stardates weren't important, they wouldn't have been used." Indeed. :)
 
I'm choosing to assume that the person who posted the Stardate for Basics 1 and others didn't just arbitrarily make up the number he/she gave, meaning that it came from somewhere at least semi-official, even if it wasn't ultimately used in the episode itself.

Yeah true, difficult to read. I can not read it either

Ah I just found it. Scroll down to the product description and it says this.

Two episodes from the end of the second season of the Star Trek seires set on board a Federation ship stranded seventy years from Earth. In 'Resolutions', stardate 49690.1, Chakotay and the Captain are left on an idyllic planet when they are infected with a mystery virus. Janeway orders Tuvok to continue the voyage home without them. In 'Basics - Part One', stardate 49700.0, Seska sends a message to Chakotay that she has given birth to his son, and that the infant's life is in danger. The crew have to decide if Seska is telling the truth or whether she is setting a trap.

You can't go by made up stardates for a VHS cover. Not unless you're willing to accept that DS9's fourth season episodes Little Green Men, Crossfire, and Return to Grace actually happened during the first half of DS9's third season. Not to mention the VHS cover placing Homefront and Paradise Lost in the same period despite having proper on-screen stardates given.

The episode before Basics Part 1 war "Resolutions" with a stardate given 49690, Janeway says this stardate is the 24th day on this planet. In the episode itself Tuvok mentions another stardate: 49694,2 with making contact with the vidians convoy.

Memory Alpha says:
The duration of the events in this episode transpire over a period of approximately three months, making it one of the longest times the viewers spend with the characters in a single episode of Star Trek [...]. Nevertheless, Ken Biller ultimately thought this episode insufficiently indicates the passage of time herein. "I was disappointed, because I felt it was repetitive," he commented. "That is another problem with the style of our show – I don't fault Jeri for that at all – which is how to convey the passage of time. If you go back and listen to the ship's logs, the idea was they were months stuck on that planet and I don't think it felt like that when you watched it. Maybe we should have done more to show the passage of time. That was a show that needed a montage sequence or Chakotay to grow a beard or something." The duration of this episode's events are:
  • The first four weeks spent in orbit of "New Earth" searching for a cure.
  • The next six weeks with Voyager resuming its journey home.
  • The final six weeks involving Voyager's return to "New Earth," after obtaining a cure.

Now you can calculate to yourself if the stardate of 49700 is correct. In my opinion it is impossible. No matter what at amazon is written in a commentary. A day is something with 2-3 stardates, isnt it? Make out of it a stardate of 49900, there i would say this is possible

Don't get me wrong. I disagree with these stardates but I wonder if that's where the confusion lies. I did try something similar once and try to convert stardates from the video covers into actual dates and failed miserably. I think it worked out that two episodes which obviously spanned several days each both apparently happened in the same day.
