Exactly. People work hard to keep this site running. Vandals like you just make it harder for them. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.251.456.183 (talk • contribs).
- Stop adding things which are patently false. The Great Fire of London happened from 2 September to 5 September, as is mentioned on the Great Fire of London page, and on the 2 September page. The Harlem Globetrotters played their first game on 7 January. [1] Sam Vimes 19:42, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
- Carol Wayne's date of birth you've actually got right, but if you'll notice all the other people born on this date actually have articles (hence the blue link) - no one's written an article on Carol Wayne yet, so why have you added her? Sam Vimes 19:46, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
I did not know these dates were not correct. Plese excuse me. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.221.217.193 (talk • contribs).
- OK. Mind if I remove them, then? Sam Vimes 20:34, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
I do not mind.
Pompey the Great? His article says he was born and died on the 29th September. Any references? Narsamson
