Wikipedia talk:Did you know/Darwin Day 2009

Media for Commons
Not "Did you know" related, but more media would also be good, e.g. images from his books (majority missing); images of and related to Darwin (e.g. those in the public domain plates of, say, the Desmond and Moore biography; audio/video of people talking about Darwin etc. Richard001 (talk) 09:02, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Lincoln bicentennial
Since Abraham Lincoln is also celebrating his bicentennial birthday this day, maybe include Abe on this list?-- King Bedford I Seek his grace  05:12, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
 * That sounds reasonable. Feel free to add a section about potential Lincoln articles (and/or list the ones you've already drafted) to this page.--ragesoss (talk) 23:01, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I did six, but as there was only one Darwin hook in its separate section at DYK, they are under February 5th: Template_talk:Did_you_know.-- King Bedford I Seek his grace  00:16, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Too many?
We've now got 14 candidates, the approval template has nine spaces and eight seems to be a common number of articles featured in DYK. Any thoughts? . . dave souza, talk 09:15, 8 February 2009 (UTC)


 * The DYK entries change during the day. On the face of it, the entries could be spread so that every batch had multiple entries. Rjm at sleepers (talk) 09:42, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
