Steak etc Day

A meme, not a real thing. Maybe create a new category, but should not be here ~2026-14653-38 (talk) 14:08, 8 March 2026 (UTC)

If this gets put into a "Meme" category, then "The Day That Krabs Fries" (from the spongebob movie) should also be put into it. ~2026-18435-61 (talk) 20:09, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

Klement Gottwald

Klement Gottwald 14th Presedient of Czechoslovakia???? Absolute nonsense! He was the 3rd president of Czechoslovakia. Where do you generate this nonsense, on AI????

Count! 1st President - Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk. 2nd President Edvard Beneš. Then, Klement Gottwald. How could he be 14th for fuckʾs sake?

Well, according to List of presidents of Czechoslovakia, he was the 4th president. Kiwipete (talk) 08:33, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

Births

In the births section for 1601-1900 there is someone born in 1297. Trofim100 (talk) 21:05, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

Thanks, @Trofim100. The "Pre-1600" section was removed back in July 2023, so I've restored it and moved this birth entry there. Kiwipete (talk) 02:41, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

Thank you. The reason I did not do it myself is because it was the only pre-1600 birth there, and I didn't know if it needed its own section. Trofim100 (talk) 22:58, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
