Talk:1926

Layout

I think the page layout for "year in topic" in some places where it is flagged in the box as on this page 1921, 1922 is better. I seek opinions before making them all the same BozMo(talk)

Hugh Hefner and contents

Why there's a Hugh Hefner's birth twice and why is Table of Contents at the end? Or is it just for me?

December

Does the Turkish adoption of the Gregorian calendar belong here? They adopted the calendar after using the Islamic calendar, not from the Julian as most of Europe did, so I don't think there should be the 13 day offset from the calendar adoption. I still corrected the new date to 1 Jan 1927, rather than 1 Jan 1926, as if the date change were correct. I'm leaving the item in place, but I think it should be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.197.33.218 (talk) 18:12, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Lionel Jeffries

I would like to request that Lionel Jeffries remains in the "births" section, as I feel that, considering the number of films he acted in, the fame of some of them and the fame of some of the films he directed, such as The Railway Children are enough to give him a mention.

Orphaned references in 1926

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 1926's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 12:16, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
