Wikipedia talk:Selected anniversaries/September 16

The September 16th entry says softball was invented on this date in 1887. It wasn't. It was invented on November 24, 1887. The Softball article says it was invented on the date the Harvard/Yale football game was played. This is true. The game was played on 11/24/1887. Thank you.

Eid al-Mubahalah
As I stated here, today, i.e. September the 15th, is Eid al-Mubahalah in Iran and some other countries. It did not go to the main page, but let's do it for tomorrow since tomorrow is Eid in Iraq (See the difference between here and here). I've made the required changes to the article. -- M h hossein   talk 13:07, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

2019 notes

 * September 16 seems to be overwhelmingly biased towards the Western World. For geographic variety and for this article's historical importance per WP:OTDRULES, Black September, a conflict in Jordan, should be added. Makeandtoss (talk) 15:44, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

"1970 – King Hussein of Jordan declares war against the Palestine Liberation Organization, the conflict which became to be known as Black September."


 * , Black September usually appears on September 17 and will appear this year. We do not feature the same article on more than one day. --- Coffee  and crumbs  18:18, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

notes section
I find the eligible/ineligible sections extremely unwieldy, so just taking notes of potential interesting articles on talk.
