Talk:1957

Page layout years
There is a discussion on my talk page on page layout.

For most of the last three hundred years there is inconsistency and duplication between the year in topic paragraph, the "see also" box and what is on the year by topic pages. Prior to 1950 I am pretty convinced we can painlessly (except for sore fingers) delete all of the year in topic paragraphs and ensure that the material goes into a "see also" box, creating such a box where none exists. Post 1950, particularly from the "year in US television" link a lot of material has been added to this paragraph as highlights (sometimes making up most of the page content pointed at).

Personally I think we should still delete the paragraph, keep the box linking to the topic sites and move any particularly important parts of the year in topic paragraph to the main chronological list. This does involve undoing quite a bit of work which someone has done.

Therefore, unlike for prior to 1950 (where I've said no objection= I do it) for post 1950 I won't touch these pages unless a significant number of people agree with the change. (I am also unlikely to get the pre 1950 stuff done before summer unless the service speed improves dramatically). (talk)--BozMo 14:24, 7 May 2004 (UTC)

Duplicated entry
I notice that there is an entry for "Eindhoven University of Technology is founded." both on June 15 of this year and unknown dates in 1956, I don't know which is correct, but unless they're refering to different stages of the university's foundation, they can't both be.

Katey Sagal
If she were born in 1954, why would she be listed under births of 1957?

In television
Since when are tv shows globally notable? I propose that the section be deleted. Carl.bunderson (talk) 03:32, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

October calendar is wrong
Can the October calendar be corrected? It is starting on the wrong day. Mseliw (talk) 02:49, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Hannu Kamppuri
Both the Janury birthday and July birthday links lead to the same page - it's likely that one of the birthdates is incorrect, or there are actually two different Hannu Kamppuris in need of distinction.76.192.97.49 (talk) 20:06, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
