Wikipedia talk:Selected anniversaries/March 10

Three links are individually bolded, none of the articles contain more info on the event. Maybe dot-com should be bolded instead? Or, better, the Nasdaq article updated.. &mdash; Sverdrup (talk) 10:03, 28 Feb 2004 (UTC)


 * I just copied the text over. Everything will be fixed by the time this page goes live on the Main Page. --mav 15:14, 28 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Should this say that Bell made his first successful phone call? Gray certainly had transmitter reciever pairs, there's Meucci's claim, etc etc. The term the seems a little strong. Rick Boatright 17:55, 8 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Hitler armies invasion of the rest of Czechoslovakia
I suggest:
 * 1939 - Hitler ordered German armies to enter Prague. Sparking of World War II.

info: By some historicians, this is the begining of World War II (it was the first invasion of German armies) I used the text "to enter Prague" because after the Munich Agreement - Czechoslovakia had to give its essential territory to surrounding countries -so it was not yet "invasion of Czechoslovakia" - but just its rest. &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.24.84.55 (talk &bull; contribs) 15:09, 2006 January 19.


 * I think this happened on March 15 instead. -- PFHLai 17:22, 1 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh my mistake - you´re right! Could it be added there? For example instead of test match of cricket? &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by Szalas (talk &bull; contribs) 17:45, 2006 March 1 (UTC).
 * Thanks for the suggestion, I did that already. But it didn't bump off the cricket item.  Wikipedia has many good cricket-related pages, but we rarely get the chance to feature any of them. I almost take off the Rolls Royce bit but it stayed for the 100th anniversary.... -- PFHLai 02:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Courrières mine disaster
This is of course a blatant plug for the page I am writing at the moment :) but this was Europe's biggest mining disaster by a long way (1099 dead), and it's the centenary this year. Big news in France this week... Physchim62 (talk) 12:34, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
 * You don't want this on DYK ? (We shouldn't feature the same page on both.) -- PFHLai 19:49, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Posted. Hope you won't miss the DYK medal. --PFHLai 18:15, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
