Talk:1783

Untitled
I have made some year layout proposals which would affect a significant proportion of the year pages: an example of proposed style is 1850. It is detailed on my talk page.

If no-one flags where I have put the discussion on my talk page that they object in a month I will start making everything consistent. It may take some time... --BozMo 12:32, 7 May 2004 (UTC)(talk)

---a correction may be need: this page states February 4 American Revolutionary War: Great Britain formally declares that it will cease hostilities with the United States of America. Likewise the February 4 page states: 1783 - American Revolutionary War: The United Kingdom formally declares that it will cease hostilities with the United States of America.

but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Watson-Wentworth%2C_2nd_Marquess_of_Rockingham states "In 1782 he [Rockingham] was appointed Prime Minister for a second time (with Charles James Fox and Lord Shelburne as secretaries of state) and, upon taking office, acknowledged the independence of the United States, initiating an end to British involvement in the Revolutionary War." The date that Rockingham took office was March 27, 1782 Dmossbar (talk) 03:26, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
