Resident Evil
In Timeline 9 Caliban Cove happens before nemesis, as its an original story about a separate outbreak event. Nemesis has that odd "happens before and after" relationship with City of Dead that the Nemesis game has with RE2. Also if you really want to be pedantic the later novels (Nemesis, Code Veronica and Zero Hour) actually retcon the events of the first four novels. This is because the first 4 were written after the release of RE2 and really flesh out the story in some ways that match up with the plots of later games (for example, there is a whole Chapter in "City of the Dead" which focuses on Jill leaving Racoon City before the events of Nemesis even happen).
As for Timeline 10, Am I right that this is a reference to the "true story of BIOHAZARD" book? if so that I'd recommend that you also incorporate the "Flagship expanded universe" into that timeline. Basically in the 90s Capcom had a team of writers brought in to help improve the story quality of the games, and they also wrote a bunch of expanded universe content which was Japan-exclusive and, sadly, frequently clashed with the established plots of the games.
