Cullinan
''# 1905 - Cullinan Diamond, the largest rough gem-quality diamond known, is discovered by Frederick Wells.

Article Cullinan Diamond says: "The Cullinan Diamond, found by Frederick Wells, surface manager of the Premier Diamond Mining Company in Cullinan, Gauteng, South Africa, on January 26, 1905".

One of the dates must be wrong? Siim 11:40, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

France in WWII
The armistice was signed on June 22, 1940: see Second Compiègne Armistice. That page notes that the cease-fire went into effect on June 25, 1940, but the June 25 date seems of relatively minor significance to the armistice negotiation and signing itself. Thoughts?

I’ve got to admit, I only had a very quick look.

"no new entries without inline citations"
Hello, I just accepted a pending change because the inserted person was notable enough to have an article. If a person is notable enough to have an article, I (or anyone else) can add that person to the births or deaths list, right? However, I see that has reverted some edits that seemed fine after saying that "no new entries without inline citations." I'm confused by this, so I would appreciate it if anyone can explain to me (and link me to) the policy on inline citations on this article. Thank you! William2001(talk) 20:16, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

first ATM
This page lists the first ATM in the world as the one installed in Enfield Town, in the UK, in 1967, however the Automatic Teller Machine page lists the first ATM as the one installed in Ohio in 1959, so which is the correct answer? CybergothiChé word to your mother 09:04, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6230194.stm also states that the world's first cashpoint (ATM) was installed at a branch of Barclays in Enfield which is a part of London, UK.

http://inventors.about.com/od/astartinventions/a/atm.htm refers to the idea for the machines first being considered in 1939. The British inventor of the ATM got one installed in London in 1967. However, he never patented his idea, nor his other invention the PIN. A freestanding ATM was displayed in First Pennsylvania Bank in Philadelphia the following year. Point of origin would seem to be iindicated by the last paragraph of http://www.enfieldindependent.co.uk/news/8099344.Stolen_cashpoint_plaque_will_be_replaced/

I may be wrong but wasn't June 28 also a national day for the Serbs, where they 'celebrate' their defeat? My teacher was rambling and I wasn't paying close attention but is there any substance to what I think I heard? Bug 15:00, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

A very important notice on Vidovdan. It is not thebattle between "Christian Europe" and the Ottomans, but battle between Serbian army led by prince Lazar Hrebeljanovic, aided by some Christian armies, such as Croat, Bosnian, Bulgarian and Magyar (Hungarian) armies against the Turkish army.

It is a absolutely important to say, in this very form, otherwise it is an malicious changing of Serbian history. Even offensive.

28 June is Tau day according to another wiki article:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi#In_popular_culture — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.69.107.217 (talk) 01:46, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

The date of the battle of Kosovo
Did the battle of Kosovo (1389) take place on June 28th, as it is sometimes stated (even in some versions of this article)?

If what is stated in the article of Battle of Kosovo, it did not. It took place on June 15th (according to Julian calendar). Among Serbs, that day of the year is known as Vidovdan, i.e. Saint Vitus' day. Among most Orthodox Christians, the old Julian calendar is still used in religious contexts, and in the early 20th century it was also the official civil calendar in some Eastern European countries (for example in Russia, and also in Serbia). Nowadays (since 1900) June 15th in Julian calendar falls on the same day as June 28th in Gregorian calendar, and this fact seems to have some all too well-known consequences in the 20th century, especially in 1914. The difference between Julian and Gregorian calendar actually is now 13 days. This, however, has not always been the case, and will not always be; it only holds from 1900 to 2100. That difference increases one day every century, except when the century year is divisible by 400 (as it was in 1600 and in 2000). At the time of the battle of Kosovo, the Gregorian calender did not even exist, as it was introcuded by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582. At that time, the difference between Julian and Gregorian calendar was not 13 but only 10 days; since then, it has increased by one day in 1700, 1800 and 1900. Thus, even if the Gregorian calender were extended backwards, "proleptically", to centuries before 1582, the battle of Kosovo did not take place on June 28th, even according to such a proleptic Gregorian Calendar, but, according to it, on June 23th. (According to such a proleptic calendar, it is to be supposed that the years 1400 and 1500 were not leap years, althought they so were in Julian calendar, and thus in 1389 the difference between Julian and proleptic Gregorian calendar was only 8 days). Thus the statement that it took place on June 28th is absolutely false. Neither according to Julian, nor according to proleptic Gregorian calendar, did it happen on that date. Except, of course, if what is stated on the page Battle of Kosovo, is false. -FKLS (talk) 18:53, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

Mercedes-Benz merger misinformation (1926)
According to the article for June 28th, "Mercedes-Benz is formed by Gottlieb Daimler and Karl Benz merging their two companies," but upon reading more about the company in the "Mercedes-Benz" article, Daimler died in 1900. The headline is just a little misleading.

iPhone release

iPod release date
Please let me know why you removed my iPod Release Date edit to June 29. That is a revolutionary piece of technology and deserves a place in the annals of Wikipedia. Demigod 23 December 1, 2007
 * I didn't remove your addition of the release date of the iPhone (which is what I think you meant). The editor at 203.109.245.204 removed it. That is unless you are also editing from the IP address 69.202.36.234 and in that case I did remove it because it was not properly added (it was added in a way that is usually used to slip by non-notable events by putting them on the same line as a notable event).  And since that editor's other edits were also not constructive, I had no qualms about removing it.  The item has been added about 15 times and it has been removed every time by more than 7 different editors.  So clearly there is some honest dispute as to the global notability.  Personally, I don't think it should be listed because it does not signify a major human accomplishment or a social milestone - as one removing editor said, "its just a phone".  It didn't change the way the world thinks about something.  In ten years it will no longer be notable.  Another important factor in the removals is likely that most times it has been added simply as Apple iPhone is released in the US.  OK, so what.  This says nothing to help the casual reader understand why it should be there.  Did it break a major global record?  If it did, will the record reasonably be broken soon?  If so, it shouldn't be there because it represents a fad.  -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 23:13, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Self reference
While it is true that we generally avoid self-references, I checked with the admin responsible for the change, and he explained the logic in this case:
 * First the newest software version automatically changes a self reference to bold, so users won't end up reloading the same page needlessly.
 * Second, the standard is to bold the article's name where it appears in the first sentence, so this bolding fits well.
 * Third, and most interesting, by identifying the date as a link, each user will see the date reference as per the date preferences he or she set on her preference page. This gives the article a much more international appeal.  Rklawton 04:44, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Harry Potter book
I'd like to begin a discussion on the global notability of the publishing of the First Harry Potter Book. I have no strong feeling either way but, as always, I am concerned about a precedent being set for the inclusion of a book publishing date - which in and of itself is not notable. I understand that great debate took place for the inclusion of the latest Harry Potter book on July 20. The consensus was that the newest book set worldwide records and therefore it was globally notable (and will remain so only until the record is broken). The question in this case is what makes the publishing of this particular book and the date that it was published globally notable? Is it notable only because it was the first in a series which culminated with great fanfare? These types of entries usually get added by fanatics of the subject as a knee-jerk and I'd like to see that some thought has gone into the entry's inclusion. The perfect defender of the global notability of this entry would be someone who has never read any of the books and has no interest in the subject. Global notability would transcend that bias. If it is decided that this entry is globally notable, does it mean that all of the publishing dates of all of the Harry Potter books should be included? What about all of the Dr. Seuss books, for example? -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 18:47, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * You've got some good points there, and I agree with most of them. As to the last two points, none of Dr. Seuss's books were nearly as popular as Harry Potter, and the first book was the first book, even if it was only the beginning and the date somewhat only a date.  My opinion isn't really stong either, but if someone wanted to know what happened on their birthday, that would be a great thing to list, and it is known world-wide.  Reviewing your contributions, I agree with many of your removals (every world series, every Pope, etc.), but many of them are quite huge cultural phenomenons (TV shows, comics, etc.), even if they origianted in America.  I know you are conforming to the guidelines a few Wikiproject members wrote, but a lot of your edits take it too far.  My opinion is only an opinion, but an event should be included if it would be of great interest to someone wanting to know the events on his birthday.  Not everything must apply to everyone and be "globally notable".  Very few people listed are globally notable.  We shan't make this an arguement, but I believe  many entries you have deleted should come back.  Reywas92 Talk 01:38, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I certainly welcome criticism and I hope that more editors will get involved in the project; especially those who disagree with existing consensus and those who want to help make the guidelines more black and white. I like rules and guidelines.  The more cut and dry they are, the better.  -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 02:15, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Also I've wikified the Algeria section with as many birth and death dates as I could find, and added more authors. The authors and dates I added were also added to the List of African writers. Additionally, I created a List of Algerian writers article, and an 'Algerian writers' category.

Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
 * Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
 * Multi-Licensing Guide
 * Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the " " template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

 * Option 1
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR
 * Option 2
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions to any U.S. state, county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace " " with "  ". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

Psychoanalysis
Hi, Thomas. I noticed you haven't been too busy here lately, but I would like to request your attention on something related to the WikiProject Critical Theory, where IIRC you were working in psychoanalytic theory.

In the Spanish wiki, where I'm most active nowadays, we're having some serious issues with a notorious if courteous POV-pusher who's turned the articlo on psychoanalysis into an all-out disqualification of its methods and practices. He claims extensive empirical testing has shown psychoanalysis' sucess rate to be similar to a placebo's, and official disavowal of psychoanalytic theory by the APA.

Not being an expert on the field, and even less in its current practice in the Ango-Saxon world, I'm at a loss for answers, although I perceive something distinctly fishy. If you have the time and inclination, I'd very much appreciate it if you could point me to relevant literature, or a trustworthy assessment of the statu quo.

Thanks in advance, and sorry for bothering you. Best, Taragüí @ 09:02, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Wikiproject: countering systemic bias
Hi Pteron, I wonder if you might be able to help - I'm writing an article for openDemocracy about the Wikiproject:countering systemic bias. I'd like to get some quotes from Wikipedians about why they're involved, what they're working on and some other general issues. I wonder if you'd be willing to talk to me over email? Mine is daviddariusbijan@yahoo.co.uk

Thanks,

(Maybe Not So) Nonsensical Claim - 11:00 mid-year for the Southern Hemisphere
"In countries that use summer time the actual exact time of the midpoint in a common year is at 1:00 p.m, or 11:00 a.m for countries in the southern hemisphere; this is when 182 days and 12 hours have elapsed and there are 182 days and 12 hours remaining."

This statement seems to be complete nonsense. Are there any countries in the southern hemisphere which use summer time in July ? And, if there was any,   the "middle hour of the year",  would still be 1 p.m., and not 11 am as claimed,    because that would correspond to noon in that country's standard time. Lathamibird (talk) 07:54, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

I thought this was nonsensical too, and I came here to say so. But thanks to your mention of "summer time in July" being wrong in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) I saw the light (pun intended). That is wrong, SH summer is in January. But that is why the 11:00 midpoint is exactly correct for SH locations that observe Daylight Savings Time (DST, aka summer time). In Australia DST is in effect when the year changes, December/January. So 11:00am July 2 (or 11pm July 1st in leap-years) is their midpoint of the year precisely because July is NOT in daylight savings time. Bob Stein - VisiBone (talk) 16:28, 2 July 2016 (UTC)

Kaupang

Kaupang was a Viking Age village that is generally considered to be the first town/marketplace in Norway. It is located near the present-day village of Tjøllingvollen in Larvik Municipality in Vestfold county, Norway. The village of Kaupang was located along the Viksfjorden, a branch off the main Larviksfjorden. The ancient Viking hall, Skiringssal, was located just inland from the fjord. Kaupang was an important merchant and craft center during the Viking Age and as yet the first known Norwegian trading outpost.

Kaupang is the site of the remains of one of Scandinavia's earliest urban sites, established in year 800. Kaupang was abandoned in the mid-10th century. Kaupang has been described as Norway's most important monument from the Viking Age.

Name
The name Kaupang was the Old Norse term for market-place composed of - (which means "buy") and (which means "fjord harbor"), hence the name means something like "buy fjord" or "buy harbor" (similar to the literal translation of Copenhagen).

History
Kaupang was founded in the 780s and abandoned for unknown reasons in the early 10th century. It was situated on a beach by Viksfjord in Larvik municipality. Documentary sources indicate that the area was an important royal seat in the 8th and 9th centuries.

There is a general perception that Kaupang is mentioned under the name of Skiringssal (Old Norse: Skíringssalr) in Ohthere of Hålogaland's account of his travels. But the name of the port Ohthere visited at the end of the 9th century is only recorded as "Sciringes heal" in Old English, and there is no scientific evidence that "Sciringes heal" corresponded to Kaupang in Skiringssal.

Excavation
Archaeological evidence indicates that the site might have been the first proto-urban settlement of some significance in Norway. The excavations which have been conducted at Kaupang have found evidence for a handicraft and commercial center, with around 1,000 inhabitants. The settlement had diverse craft production and extensive trade with foreign countries. Commodities traded included iron, soapstone and perhaps fish.

In 1867 Nicolay Nicolaysen conducted the first excavations of the area, mapping one of the grave-fields around the settlement and excavating 79 grave mounds. He also uncovered a cremation cemetery, largely dated to the 10th century. Charlotte Blindheim started excavating in 1947 and completed her last publication in 1999, and Dagfinn Skre and his associates undertook a new program of work at Kaupang in 1997.

In the summer of 2000, the Institute for Archaeology, Conservation and Historical Studies at the University of Oslo began a new excavation program at Kaupang, under the direction of Dagfinn Skre, which ran until 2002, and a smaller excavation was conducted in Kaupang's harbour area in 2003. In total, four possible houses were uncovered, as were a number of hearths, pits and postholes. Following the excavations, scholars worked on analysing both artifacts and environmental samples from the excavations.

The results from the post-excavation work have been published in a series of three books, the first of which became available in 2007, the last being published in 2011. Many of the approximately 100,000 finds from excavations have been on display at the University of Oslo, including Arab silver coins, gold coin from Dorestad, hundreds of glass beads, gold and bronze jewelry, pottery, weapons, and tools

Hi there. Welcome to Wikipedia! If you need anything, just let me know on my talk page.

I should probably warn you... I used to be a physics major, too. Then I joined Wikipedia. Then I failed thermodynamics. Now I'm not a physics major. This is not a strict chain of cause and effect, but it's not completely unrelated, either. Beware, my friend. :-)

2 points: (1) I like your username. Only it reminds me of other 'star-'words: starcrossed, starstruck, starlight, etc. (Is startstruck a word? It's nicer than 'moonstruck', because of the alliteration.) Never realised star-words were so pretty.... (2) Your description of the addiction (new user log) was very accurate: it's so clear that it forced me to recognise my own condition; there was simply no room left for denial. Ah well. At least I'm not going to study physics (unlike all 3 of my best friends, who say that 'a lunatic is a minority of one' -- George Orwell's 1984), which might keep me safe, but maybe Isomorphic's observation is not limited to the β-sciences, in which case I'm smack in the danger zone. Why am I writing this? Mainly because it's nice to receive messages, so I try to offer others this experience. Maybe because I'm a touch too talkative for my own good. I'll stop now. Sietse 10:42, 11 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * (1) Thanks! I've had this name since sophomore year at college; wanted something non-threatening and soft for a writing nickname.

BirdWatch Ireland

BirdWatch Ireland (BWI) is a voluntary conservation organisation devoted to the conservation and protection of wild birds and their habitats in Ireland. It was formerly known as the Irish Wildbird Conservancy (IWC). Irish Wildbird Conservancy was founded in 1968, among others by Major Robert (Robin) Ruttledge, an Irish ornithologist who became its first president.

BWI has over 15,000 active members and supporters, and a network of 30 branches actively promoting the importance of birds and habitats, and general conservation issues. It publishes the annual journal Irish Birds and the quarterly magazine Wings. It manages a number of nature reserves including Little Skellig.

BirdWatch Ireland is a member of the Irish Environmental Network, the Sustainable Water Network (SWAN), Environmental (Ecological) NGOs Core Funding Ltd (EENGO), Working and Educating for Biodiversity (WEB) and the Irish Uplands Forum (IUF). They also work closely with the Irish National Biodiversity Data Centre in providing wildlife monitoring data.

The Charities Regulator reported in November 2022 that there had been misuse of funds and inadequate internal controls.

BirdTrack
BirdTrack is an online citizen science website, operated by the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) on behalf of a partnership of the BTO, the RSPB, BirdWatch Ireland, the Scottish Ornithologists' Club and the Welsh Ornithological Society (Cymdeithas Adaryddol Cymru).

Garden Bird Survey
The Garden Bird Survey (GBS) is one of BirdWatch Ireland's most popular volunteer surveys which receives over 1,000 submissions annually when it takes place between December and February.

Report on declining Irish bird populations
The organization released the Irish Wetland Bird Survey in the 1990s, when there were 1.2 million wintering waterbirds in Ireland. A recent analysis in April 2019 put the number at 760,000.

In July 2019, Birdwatch Ireland reported that the Irish bird population was in "dramatic" decline, with 40 percent of the country's waterbirds, or half a million, lost in the prior 20 years. Loss of habitat was cited as the reason for the decline. Other reasons were climate changes, agriculture, hedge cutting, pollution, and the burning of scrub. Birdwatch Ireland called for Citizens' Assembly to examine the biodiversity loss. One of every five Irish bird species assessed in the survey was threatened with extinction. Lapwing numbers, according to Birdwatch Ireland, were down 67% in twenty years. It also said there had been an "almost complete extermination" of farmland birds, for example the corncrake. The curlew was reported on the verge of extinction in Ireland, with only 150 pairs remaining. In the 1960s, 5,000 pairs had been reported.

For the event on July 11, 1973, it states that "Varig Flight 820 crashes near Paris...", yet the Wikipedia article about that flight, linked to from that page, says "The aircraft landed in a field 5 km short of the runway, in a full-flap and gear-down configuration."

Disco demolition night
1979 – Disco Demolition Night at Comiskey Park Chicago, Illinois

This event does not appear to meet global notability requirements for inclusion. It has no historical significance. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c)

Disco Demolition Night appears to be repeatedly removed and then readied to this list. Although this event is not specifically endorsed by the guidelines for including events in this list, it also does not appear to be specifically denied. This was a cultural riot and I believe it should be included rather than excluded based on this.

Holidays and observances
The feast of Peter and Paul is June 29 on the Julian calendar which falls on July 12 on the Gregorian calendar. This is handled at the section called Eastern Orthodox Liturgics. That section would have Peter and Paul on June 29 and then explain all this. I suggest it be removed from here. In any case it is only correct here for those Eastern Orthodox who follow the Julian calendar - thus the Greeks and many others do NOT celebrate it on July 12. --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 18:59, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * The general rule of thumb is to avoid using the Old Calendar and stick with the Georgian Calendar; except if the observance satisfies the notability requirements on both Old Calendar and Georgian Calendar dates.
 * The feast of Peter and Paul was placed here because July 12 is a notable date for a significant number of Christian orthodox e.g. the Greek Old Calendarists, Russian Orthodox Church, Serbian Orthodox Church, Montenegrin Orthodox Church, Jerusalem Orthodox, and others. Thus the July 12 date for Feast of Peter and Paul satisfies the notability requirements.
 * Yes it has been explained in the Orthodox liturgic link, but the notability of the July 12 date means that it is ok to be mentioned again in here (and on June 29). There are other Christian feast following the double date trend because both are notable: the Assumption of Mary (a public holiday in Macedonia, Georgia, and Serbia), and the Old Christmas (public holiday in Russia and others).--Rochelimit (talk) 07:24, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

DJ LeMahieu
Should be added to the list of people who were born on July 13th. He won a NL batting title in 2016 with .348 which was better than all MLB players, made an all star team (2015), and won a gold glove award (2014). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.78.45.250 (talk) 21:50, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Honestly, I agree. I think the issue is that all of these dates of the year articles have "Births" sections that are already way too long so we're going to be so picky that we don't add anybody but superstars. Like, Buster Posey and Madison Bumgarner have that factor while Jon Gray and Joe Panik just don't. Unfair as it is, LeMahieu has a tough time standing out when he plays with Nolan Arenado and Trevor Story so the tendency will be to delete just to try to keep these lists at a manageable level.  City O f  Silver  22:42, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Imo there should be a criteria needed for adding athletes. For instance any MLB player with at least 1 all star game on his resume should automatically be included on pages of days people were born, as should winning an MVP, or batting title. Any player who wins those awards prove they are among the best MLB players. Maybe something could be implemented which non MLB all stars are not notable enough to be on a date of a year page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.78.45.250 (talk) 23:27, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Matthew Crooks Cameron

Sir Matthew Crooks Cameron, (2 October 1822 – 25 June 1887) was a politician in Ontario, Canada. He was a Conservative member of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1867 to 1878. He represented the riding of Toronto East. He served in the cabinet of the first Premier, John Sandfield Macdonald. After Macdonald's defeat in 1871, he became leader of the Conservative Party and served as Leader of the Opposition until his retirement from politics in 1878. After the legislature, he served as Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas until his death in 1887. In 1887 he was made a Knight Bachelor.

Background
He was born in Dundas in Upper Canada, during his studies at Upper Canada College, he lost one leg after a shooting accident. Cameron later articled in law, was called to the bar in 1849 and entered practice with William Henry Boulton in Toronto, Ontario. He was created a QC on 27 March 1863, and elected a bencher of the Law Society of Upper Canada in April 1871. In 1887, he was created a Knight Bachelor shortly before his death.

Politics
In 1859, he was elected to Toronto City Council to represent St James' Ward. Two years, later, in January 1861, he was defeated in his effort to become Mayor of Toronto, but later that year, he was elected to the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada for North Ontario. He was defeated in 1863 but was elected in an 1864 by-election when the incumbent, William McDougall, was forced to run for re-election after he was named to the executive council. Cameron was opposed to Confederation, preferring a legislative union. In 1867, he ran unsuccessfully in Ontario North in the federal election but was elected for Toronto East to the provincial legislature.

Cameron entered the Cabinet of Premier John Sandfield Macdonald in 1867 as Provincial Secretary and Registrar of Ontario.

In 1871, he became Commissioner of Crown Lands. With the defeat of the Macdonald government in the provincial election that December, Cameron became leader of the Ontario Conservative Party, but stepped down in 1878 to accept the appointment of Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas.

Asia's longest-serving political leader
According to your July 16 Anniversary page, the claim that in 1981, Dr. Mahathir Mohamad who became Malaysia's 4th Prime Minister; his 22 years in office, ending with retirement on 31 October 2003, made him Asia's longest-serving political leader.

However, Singapore's 1st Prime Minister, Mr Lee Kuan Yew would definitely have served a longer period of time as his tenure as Prime Minister was from the 3rd June 1959 – 28th November 1990.

Even if it was to discount that Singapore only achieved independence from Malaysia since 9th August 1965, and his taking of office on the 12th August 1965, He would still have been Asia's longest-serving political leader with 25 years, 3 months, 16 days in office.

Jadwiga of Poland
The Wiki article linked to says June 8, not July 17. Yes it's the day of her death but that doesn't mean it's the day of her celebration. Why is she here?--Richardson mcphillips (talk) 02:04, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

Barthélemy Faujas de Saint - Error with years of birth/death
The page currently has: "1819 - Barthélemy Faujas de Saint, French geologist (b. 1741)" under the births section. So why does it say b. 1741?! If no one responds by 1/27/2006, I think I'll try to do some reseearch on her (there's no wikipedia article), otherwise, I'm deleting this line. Reuvenk 23:25, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Conflict with article?
Should the bit about the Great Fire of Rome state "while Roman Emperor Nero reportedly played his lyre and sang as he watched the blaze from a safe distance" when the article contradicts that? While "reportedly" is used, the report in question is, well, questionable, as the article explains. PoptartKing 01:59, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

TWA flight 800
Why is TWA Flight 800 listed on both July 17 and July 18 when the explosion and crash happened on July 17 local time? I think that it would be prudent to have only 1 listing of this (on July 17). The UTC time can still be there, for reference. Just a thought... Fitzharry 13:42, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Machine Gun Kelly
Somehow he's made it onto the birthday list twice, for 1895 (the year given on his page) and 1900. The actual year of birth will have to be verified one way or the other somehow. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tudnut (talk • contribs) 09:31, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Birth and death entries
Continuing the ongoing effort to reduce the size of the Births and Deaths sections to make them manageable, I've removed some celebrities with few or no articles in other wikipedias, moving the entries to the appropriate Year in Topic article if they were not already present.

Proposed merge with 19th July 1940
Unless an actual topic can be determined, this article is just about some historical events on a particular day. As such, it's unsourced, and has no central theme.  freshacconci  talk to me  04:18, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

I highly disagree. 19th of July is a very important date in German military history, and an important event in World War Two. Since the event (to my knowledge) doesn't have a certain name, I was forced to call it "19th July 1940". My sources regarding this article has been countless other of wiki-articles connected with World War Two, and I did link them as credible sources, but got removed somehow

Talk:Miklós Zrínyi

Beware of the pigs!
Wild boards have a particular importance for the history of Carpathian basin. Prince imre, the only son of Saint Stephanus I, founding king of Hungary, also died to a wildboar's tusks. Many people and some historians argue, both him and Zrinyi were killed by austrian assains. Zrinyi actually planned to make a revolt against the Habsburgs, so getting rid of him would seem logical to the Austrian Empire. However, many eye witnesses testified that Zrinyi was indeed wounded in a way consistent with a wildboar. I'd say 75% probable hunting accident, 25% assassination, but we'll never get to know for sure.

Name
Now can anyone explain to me this stupidity of using Hungarian version of Croatian name for Croatian nobleman? Zrinski's were Croats. Their name is Zrinski or of Zrin. Of course you had different versions of your name in Middle ages in Europe, Latin, German, Hungarian but to name Croatian nobleman who has a Croatian name Nikola Zrinski in Hungarian is pure stupidity. Pp (talk) 12:19, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I kindly ask you to study a bit the topic. The Zrinksi/Zrínyí became Hungarian nobles as well and had a Hungarian lineage also. Especially the subject here was born in Hungary and had a Hungarian mother as well.(KIENGIR (talk) 12:38, 22 August 2019 (UTC))

This was discussed some time ago. Obviously, the Zrinskis were a family with Croatian origins and close ties to Croatia. They were also members of a multi-ethnic empire, and various members of them were more associated with one part or another of that empire. It seems the most natural and intuitive way to name the articles is to go by what context each member was most well-known, and this particular Zrinski is most famous for his contribution to Hungarian culture and his Hungarian patriotism expressed in that contribution. It's not in any way meant to lessen his Croatian-ness, but rather to reflect the reality that out of the Zrinski family, he is the member most closely associated with Hungarian-ness. Korossyl (talk) 16:04, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Nonsense, they have no ethnic ties with Hungary, all ties were political. Nikola IV was born in Zrin and there was never Hungarians there. Zrinski were part of house Šubić, one of the twelve noble tribes of Croatia Duelhawk (talk) 23:22, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I am a Croat and I live in Canada.
 * While I have Canadian citizenship, I consider myself a CROAT first.

Change of article name to Nikola VII Zrinski
You changed the article name from the Croatian name Nikola Subic Zrinski to Nikola IV, both of which are Croat parents. And here they left the article Hungarian name Miklós Zrínyi who is Nikola VII Zrinski, whose father is Croatian and his mother is Hungarian, that makes no sense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.172.73.159 (talk) 04:01, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Nikola VII Zrinski considered himself a Croat and this is shown in a letter he wrote to his friend Ivan Ručić in 1658. “Ego mihi conscius aliter sum, etenim non degenerem me Croatam et quidem Zrinium esse scio.”
 * ... the last part says "... I am a Croat and a Zrinski." 104.158.48.139 (talk) 13:27, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
