Notable?
From WP:DOY:

What is not notable * In general, events that would not be of interest globally/that do not have an impact on more than one country *Founding or openings of institutions/buildings that lack global significance or are not the first of their kind, such as foundings of random universities, schools, museums, businesses, or stores *Dates that pertain to television programs, movies, books, video games, etc. - this is not notable on a global scale (exceptions include the breaking of world records for sales, etc.)

Based on these shouldn't these be removed?:


 * 1925 - Pionerskaya Pravda, one of the oldest children's newspapers in Europe, is founded.


 * 1856 - The University of Maryland, College Park is chartered as the Maryland Agricultural College.

 * I would support the removal of those events. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 23:36, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

1899 and Bayer
'References are not needed in Wikicalendar articles. However, references to support listed entries must be found in linked Wikipedia articles and not external links.'

In a recent edit, I removed the 1899 event concerning Bayer Aspirin. None of the articles linked to this event mention "March 6," "6 March" or "March 1899" anywhere. Only "1899" is mentioned. Then, I see the event I removed is a featured event. A quick check proved the patent date is correct and a quick double-check showed I didn't miss something. I'm going to add a reference to the Aspirin article with a citation and then add the event back to this page as it is noteworthy, but for future reference, do I need to overly concern myself with a situation such as this?

 * If, as it was listed, it wasn't supported, then there is no reason not to remove it. If, after conducting your own research, you find support for it and then add it to an article, then it can be added.  Then you have to ask yourself if it is notable enough for inclusion.  Usually patents and such are not notable because they are really just procedural.  Without looking into it further myself, I don't think this particular event is all that notable.  But I'm open to being convinced otherwise.  -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 17:45, 3 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank you for clarifying that. I don't know if I can convince you that the event is noteworthy so I'm not even going to attempt to. I feel it is noteworthy as "Bayer" is a reknowned name around the world for a very long time and the name is associated by most with the drug aspirin. It was Bayer's first major product and it is that product that helped make Bayer one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. It was the #1 selling drug in the world for many years. Summed up, it is actually aspirin that has been a major contribution to mankind. If Bayer didn't patent it, some other company would have. Thanks! Kentholke (talk) 18:07, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

 * There is no Wikipedia article for this organisation, hence it should not be mentioned on this article. Jim Michael (talk) 06:52, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Independence of Ghana
I think Ghana was not the first sub-Saharan African country to gain independence from Britain. What about South Africa (1931)? Torve (talk) 08:13, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
