Nationality
Why do all the nationalities dissapear? Not that I particularly like the style suggested at Historical anniversaries/Example but I do like that the nationalites are given, even though only for the birth dates... --Tobias Hövekamp

OK, I guess, I was just mislead by reading 'Country' in Historical anniversaries/Example. Anyhow, why not adding them? --Tobias


 * Better to concentrate on the things they are famous for, I think. Nationality, height, shoe size, etc., can be left for the main article.


 * It is standard for entries in the Births and Deaths sections to give the person's nationality and profession. Lkjhgfdsa 0 (talk) 20:42, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

1917: Lithuania declares its independence from the Soviet Union
Is it correct to talk about the Soviet Union in Dec 1917? Also, History of Lithuania has nothing special for this date. –User:Hajor 05:32, 11 Dec 2003 (UTC)
 * No, the Soviet Union was formed as a result of the russian revolution during WW1, and this date is before then. However, Lithuania probably did declare independence at some point after this, I suspect this year is the wrong one given. Homestarmy 19:07, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The year appears to be correct ( and ), but from Russia. I'll update the calendar; updating the article looks a bit harder, I hope someone can do it. Matchups 02:22, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Reversion of Murugan Thiruchelvam's birthday
Can someone explain to me why the addition of Murugan Thiruchelvam's birthday was reverted? I can understand that you'd do it if he weren't notable and the whole article got deleted, but if he's worth including at all, why not his birthday?


 * He's notable enough to have an article, but not notable enough for inclusion on an article such as this. Lkjhgfdsa 0 (talk) 20:42, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Sydney riots
What is the problem with the description? Please outline as clearly as possible.

I changed the link so that it didn't include the redundant year. Can someone explain why this was reverted? Matchups 20:04, 27 February 2006 (UTC).

John Mark Karr
Is he really considered notable enought to include on this date? The Legendary Ranger 16:52, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

?
Can anyone expand on this? I have no idea what it's referring to:

1937- A girl called Maria was born and a riot broke out between the Malay andDutch fighting for her. Singapore 76.168.145.214 (talk) 07:55, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

3 Inches of Snow?
I don't really think 3 inches of snow in Baton Rouge applies under WP:DOY; the closest thing would be a major natural disaster and 3 inches of snow is hardly a disaster, much less a major one. -- Pyho T / C 01:34, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

Holocaust Denier Conference on Front Page template?
How is it anywhere near notable enough for front page inclusion? It's certainly nowhere near the notability of the opening of the Kyoto Protocol. --Kitch (Talk : Contrib) 12:19, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

The Conquest Of Mecca
Wikipedia’s entry on the Prophet’s conquest of Mecca, says his force started set out on the invasion, on the 29th November, 630 AD : but doesn’t give a date for the invasion’s climax.

Can we have that clarified, please … ?

Births and deaths
In accordance with the guidelines, I've started weeding the Births and Deaths sections by removing entries for celebrities with 0-4 articles in other languages. Where possible, these have been transferred to the relevant Year in Topic articles. As well as making the lists more manageable, this will help with the globalization effort.
