Wikipedia talk:Selected anniversaries/April 21


 * 1894 - Norway formally adopts the Krag-Jørgensen rifle, designed by the Norwegians Ole Herman Johannes Krag and Erik Jørgensen, as the main arm of its armed forces, a weapon that would remain in service for almost 50 years.

This could be featured, but not in 2005, 'coz it's also the Today's featured article/April 21, 2005. -- PFHLai 10:32, 2005 Apr 19 (UTC)

The Red Baron...
As the actual article states, the general view is that it's not who actually shot him down, and that it was actually more likely to be an Australian anti-aircraft gunner. I propose to simply remove the sentance and link to more, and just say that he was shot down. --Robert Merkel 02:09, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Shortened as suggested. -- PFHLai 02:44, 2005 Apr 21 (UTC)

The Queen

 * I'm supprised the birthday of Queen Elizabeth II was not included.
 * We usually don't do birthdays here. Well, may be at 100, 250, etc. Certainly not 80. -- PFHLai 21:00, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
