Dutch Beer and Foreign Beer[edit]
I'm not familiar with the history, but shouldn't it say that the Dutch "protested" against a ban on foreign beer, rather than when on a "strike"? It seems to me that strikes are when people stop working, and usually that's done in connection with economic/workforce issues. I suspect that "protest" would be a more accurate word. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dechrwr (talk • contribs) 16:24, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
Chicago, Milwaukee Records - 1935[edit]
Problem here. The high temperature records in question were in 1934, not 1935. And the height of the dust bowl heat wave was in 1936, not 1935. 76.219.156.108 (talk) 22:30, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
Is the reference to AMD's intent to purchase a company worthy of inclusion on this page? My opinion is "no". Anybody care to second this motion and delete it? Thanks Hu Gadarn 14:51, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- Any person or organisation's intent to do anything should never be included. This article is about what has happened, not what might happen / might have happened. Jim Michael (talk) 15:01, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
Questions[edit]
Do pornographic "acting" folk really belong here? Do we want a resource that's available to all, including the very young, to include them as important/famous? And are they actors or performers? The term acting implies a certain skill, whereas most-to-all humans are capable of sexually performing. Just a thought.
Also, who is StatQuo (I read his page) and why is he on here as one of the most important/famous people in history? Apparently his "debut" album, due out in 2003, has yet to appear...
- Successful porn stars (such as Jenna Jameson and Ron Jeremy) do belong in the Births section of the relevant Day articles. The actor / performer description is disputed. Whether or not Stat Quo is notable enough to be included in the Births section is debatable. Jim Michael (talk) 02:17, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Learn Nothing Day[edit]

This observance is not the subject of an article and it seems that it is a bit of a "made up" observance observed by a small group. I understand that every observance was "made up" at one time, but this one, right now, doesn't seem to fit. It should not be included in this article. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 11:17, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
