Talk:April 12

Untitled
I suggest this image for the 50th anniversary of the first human flight, unless some better image will be proposed. IMO, this event deserves its own image on the main page. --Paul Siebert (talk) 23:51, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Removals
Moved birth from article: This may well be correct, but first, "generalist" isn't exactly helpful, and secondly, Robert Brown is a disambig page that doesn't appear to contain him. Removed until there's an article about this "generalist", whatever that may be. Lupo 10:09, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * 1976 - Robert Brown, generalist

Died April 8th 1991, (and listed there), but also listed here... Samilong (talk) 13:27, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 1991 - Dead, Swedish musician (Mayhem) (b. 1969)

Founding of a 1968 church is notable?
Someone has made an entry regarding a (redlinked) church. I propose that this be deleted. I welcome your thought. Thanks, Hu Gadarn 15:23, 1 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Seems like little more than another church (http://www.firstcathedral.org/). There doesn't seem to be anything more notable about it than any other large place of worship. -- Borameer &trade; 15:42, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Imus event
"2007 - Veteran talk radio personality Don Imus is fired by CBS Radio, eight days after making racially inflammatory on-air remarks about the Rutgers University women's basketball team."

While *I* think it isn't very notable, it completely consumed the news for a long time and has led to a few other things. Numerous DJ's have been fined or fired and the effects of that stupid comment has had world changing repercussions (which I must say I find a sad commentary on the world). It's as notable as Janet Jackson's breast (which I don't know if is listed on Wiki though). It has changed the face of radio and what is considered acceptable. -- Borameer &trade; 20:53, 10 June 2007 (UTC)


 * It was me that boldly removed the Imus Event, and would have done the same to Janet Jacksons breast had it been on the February 1 page. The wardrobe malfunction gets between 3 dozen mentions http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&safe=off&as_qdr=all&q=+breast+halftime+%22Janet+Jackson+%22+site%3Aen.wikipedia.org&btnG=Search&meta= and a hundred http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&safe=off&as_qdr=all&q=wardrobe.malfunction+OR+breast+%22+Janet+Jackson%22+site%3Aen.wikipedia.org&btnG=Search&meta= dependant on search terms, but does not make a page where it is obviously not of sufficient notability.  There is enough that need to be gone boldly without me looking for trouble. --Drappel 21:35, 10 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I realize that it was you and I was simply adding my comment on its removal, if I thought it was far more notable I would have restored it. That's what these pages are for though, to discuss edits.  I too think that about 70% of all Events should be removed but they seem to be notable on some level (such as Led Zeppelin albums, some are actually selected anniversaries!). Dunno, I was just thinking that the most notable thing that has happened on the radio in the past 10 years was that. -- Borameer &trade; 21:49, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Events concerning Imus are not notable outside the US; Day articles are for internationally notable events. Jim Michael (talk) 03:39, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

Missing holiday?
I just read the article, and there doesn't seem to be any mention of Easter. Could someone add it to the list if it's missing? - Meta 500 (talk) 02:13, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I just realised what I just said, never mind. Meta 500 (talk) 02:18, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Good call. A 23 year-old lawyer isn't likely to have achieved much in her legal career. I've gone ahead and removed the entry since she doesn't have her own article. -- irn (talk) 13:50, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

Removals
Removed Terry Fox's Marathon of Hope, as the article for MoH is a redirect and I do not believe it is internationally notable. Also removed Zuma must go protests as that does not even have an individual article, only a section on Protests in South Africa. Elassint Hi 03:01, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Terry Fox is extremely notable within Canada (as a result of this event), and I would assume also notable internationally at least enough that this event merits inclusion in the list. There are several other events here which appear to be very US-centric, with little notability internationally. The Marathon of Hope article is a redirect to Terry Fox, although I don't see in this case why this is a problem. Also, this event is already present in the eligible section of Selected anniversaries/April 12. 206.12.70.15 (talk) 02:47, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
