Tellico Dam

The Tellico Dam article refers to it as the Tellico Project, which was an event of itself that lasted from 1967 to the highlighted date in 1979. I fail to see the violation.

@AppalachianCentrist, I've reverted your edit as it does not meet the requirements for inclusion in this article (please see WP:EVENTDOY as @Toddst1 has indicated above). I would suggest a better place for this is in the 1979 article. Thanks, Kiwipete (talk) 02:47, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Michael Jackson's Thriller

Michael Jackson's Thriller is widely regarded as the best selling album of all time. Which is why I think it warrants a place on the list.

I've already tried adding it, but was rejected as ""Best selling album of all time" can become inaccurate very easily.". I find this rejection wrong, as while another album could very well take Thrillers place in the future, the album has had this distinction for a long time. Furthermore, I'd argue its cultural impact alone warrants a place on the list.
