Births and deaths

As with other dates, I have been removing entries for people who have few or no articles in other language wikipedias and thus not internationally well known. This makes the section more manageable. Where possible, those that have been removed have been transferred to the relevant Year in Topic articles. See Days of Year Project talk pages for discussion as to how best to separate births and deaths sections from these articles.Deb (talk) 07:45, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

Holidays

Sorry, I didn't know where else to write this, but today should be E=mc² day or something. If you could put this where it should be, thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.230.160.188 (talk) 14:57, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

Need some more details. Where did you read this? Deb (talk) 16:18, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

Evacuation day (New York)

This is not an observance but a historical event. Perhaps it used to be an observance but it doesn't fit under Holidays and Observances. I'll remove it. --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 13:41, 25 November 2016 (UTC)

Day name format

Is there a reason that Wikipedia named the pages with the month then the day and not the day then the month? Eshaan011 (talk) 15:27, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

See Date format by country.--Launchballer 15:32, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

I know, but not all countries are MM/DD/YYYY. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eshaan011 (talk • contribs) 16:34, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

No reason that I can find in a quick search. I will remove her. Eluchil404 (talk) 05:31, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

Holidays

In the holidays and observances category, both the Statehood Day of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the national day of Suriname is missing. Should that be added? FørsteØvsttunMannen (talk) 08:03, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

i say yes! ~2025-36388-15 (talk) 18:03, 25 November 2025 (UTC)

You have to provide a reliable reference or it won't be considered. Deb (talk) 18:13, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
