 * And I undid you, because we need greater chronological and geographical diversity. Bhagat Singh hasn't been on in 5 years and was in 1889, so Ahmadiyya wasw going to have to make way. Sorry. — howcheng  {chat} 16:41, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

Is Zimbardo’s 90th Bday in 2023 OTD Worthy?
Philip Zimbardo will be 90 years old on March 23. Legend in psychology, infamous for prison experiment, legacy of work. Worth teaching people about (in all the Psych 101 classes). Not sure what decision process is involved. Wanted to submit the suggestion. DrMel (talk) 01:10, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
