I think that Karl Marx was born on 5th May. This is confirmed on his page.

Karl Marx was indeed born on the 5th, removing. -- Borameer 21:24, 21 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

International Conscientious Objectors' Day

edit

I have added International Conscientious Objectors' Day and an external reference link. 211.26.1.2 03:05, 1 October 2007 (UTC) But this is a grassroots campaign, not recognized by any government. Should be deleted. --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 17:33, 15 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

unclear what you mean. Why add it if you think it should be deleted. I agree about deletion. --2607:FEA8:D5DF:1AF0:87C:8827:9DDC:6168 (talk) 09:07, 15 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

George Clooney 'murderer'

edit

Now this is crazy.

"2007 - George Clooney is convicted of the murder of fellow actors Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson."

I'm deleting it. Kblavie 06:24, 16 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Now this

"2007 - Gaberguts underwear brand reaches 1$ mark"

Looks like this is being spammed Kblavie 06:25, 16 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Edit on November 23

edit

I just added the area "Other Events" which now has stuff about Seussical and Horton Hears a Who!--Stealth500 (talk) 14:03, 23 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Why did this get deleted? --Stealth500 (talk) 12:46, 24 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
In order to keep all of the date articles consistent, new sections should be discussed on the project talk page. Any new section needs to be added to all 366 date articles. Additionally, there is no reason to separate Events and Other Events - what makes an event an other event? If an event is notable enough to be included, it should just go under Events. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 16:19, 24 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Where do i do that? --Stealth500 (talk) 17:48, 24 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
If you mean where do you propose a new section, here. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 18:27, 24 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
I think we misunderstood each other. If you want to discuss whether your Seussical entry should be included, this is the best place to do so. If you want to make a new section for it, this other place is the place for it. So let's talk about Suessical. Your entry was "In the play the Seussical which is based on Horton Hears a Who! takes place on May 15." What exactly are you trying to say? -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 22:11, 24 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Seussical reference

edit

The Seussical happens on May 15th and I think it should have a link here since it can link to the Seussical making an internal link.

So? --Stealth500 (talk) 01:07, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Where does it happen on May 15? Does it take place on May 15th in its fictional setting? I'm not familiar with it. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 01:10, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
It takes place in the story of Horton Hears a Who! which Seussical is based on. Essentially the story starts on May 15th. --Stealth500 (talk) 01:32, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
In that case, it would be a fictional occurrence and it should not be included here. Fictional events are specifically excluded. Have a look here and here for info on what should be listed here. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 01:41, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
So where could it go? --Stealth500 23:18, 3 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
It's already in the Horton Hears a Who! article and beyond that there is no place for it. It doesn't belong in any date articles if that is what you are asking. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 06:09, 4 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Rerum Novarum

edit

I added to "Events" the May 15, 1891 anniversary of the publication of the first modern Catholic social encyclical. Can someone please explain why this was removed? I'm new to this. Thanks Jamelchior (talk) 01:24, 28 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

since I hear no objections, I'm putting it back. Please discuss here if this doesn't meet the standards - as I said, I'm new, and trying to learn. ThanksJamelchior (talk) 19:46, 29 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Zara Phillips

edit

The current text for this item reads "1981 – Zara Phillips, English royal and horse rider". 'Her Wikipedia page refers to her being the Grandaughter of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom. Accordingly she should be listed as a British royal. Robata (talk) 21:01, 14 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
