I don't get the Bethany Beach, Delaware one. Mike H 22:27, Jul 26, 2004 (UTC)

Edit request on 12 July 2012

I think The Twelfth should be included as one of the holidays. It was put down as "ineligible" because it was lacking references. However, over the past few days I've done a lot of work on it and added a lot of references. I think you'll agree it's in a much better state that it was before. ~Asarlaí 00:40, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

non-neutral article

Hi, I believe that presenting the fleeing of palestinian soldier from Ramle and Lod as an israeli expel order is incorrect and harmful. Even it was true, I haven't seen any mention on this table about the malicious acts of the Jordanian army against the jewish population in Jerusalem and Kfar Etzion. I demand in the name of justice and fairness remove this link, it is harmful for the Israeli visitor... by the way, hizballah on this day began the 2006 Lebanon War, please replace it for more relevant news...Exx8 (talk) 12:47, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

2006 Hezbollah cross-border raid appeared four years in a row, from 2008 to 2011 inclusive. It is simply taking a break this year. Besides, if we include Hezbollah but leave out Lod/Ramle, by your logic wouldn't that make us biased in favor of Israel? If you feel that the article about Lod/Ramle is not neutral, please bring your concerns to Talk:1948 Palestinian exodus from Lydda and Ramle. —howcheng {chat} 17:48, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

any expel if controversial or not is still less important than the Casus belli of a war. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.68.78.66 (talk) 18:23, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

2019 Notes

The current image caption is wrong. That was not Prokhorovka, but Pokrovka, which is is 40 kilometres (25 mi) southwest of Prokhorovka. EyeTruth (talk) 08:29, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

OK, I replaced it with File:Bundesarchiv Bild 101I-022-2950-15A, Russland, Panzer im Einsatz.jpg, which is in the infobox of the battle article. Thanks. —howcheng {chat} 16:44, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
