Vandalism?
There seem to be some entries here that would be better reclassified and or removed. Kevmin 06:09, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
I changed the decade as a whole, instead of it being reffered to as the twenty sixties i changed it to simply "the sixties" since I do not find that realistic. When it was 1960 they did not call it the "ninteen sixties" they called it "the sixties" Blueguy20 07:57, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] This is scary
End of life on earth? This could not be true. Why would it end?

- It could be true - there are various astronomical phenomenon that could wipe out life on Earth, such as a sufficiently large asteroid or comet strike - but not one that we know is going to happen. Average Earthman 07:54, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Disputed
I don't think http://www.isaac-newton.org/update.html constitues a WP:RS. If someone could point to the actual Daily Telegraph article, that might be a source, or if the references in http://www.isaac-newton.org/update.html check out as reliable sources, that might be more appropriate. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 00:55, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Anniversaries
Ok, Daniel J. Leivick has consistantly removed the anniversaries of independence for countries. However, I have checked other year pages and certain anniversaries have remained intact, such as the United State's Tricentennial, wich I have noticed Daniel has neglected to remove despite removing others on the 2070s page. Has Wikipedia passed a policy that says these pages should not state the anniversaries for independence, or is Daniel acting of his own accord? (Grizzwald 05:24, 5 September 2007 (UTC))
- Sorry for being a little autocratic there isn't any consensus on it but I have been removing them for about a year now and no one has complained. I strongly oppose anniversaries on pages like this as they quickly fill up with trivial anniversaries like the 100 year anniversary of Michael Jackson's birth and 100 year anniversary of the release of Star Craft. In my opinion if you want to know what the anniversary of something will be you can go to its own page and add 100 or 200 to the date it happened. We don't want these pages filling up with all the events that happened 100/200/300 years ago. As for the tricentennial, it gets added a lot and I must have missed it. Let me know if this is a problem. --Daniel J. Leivick 16:24, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
- (Grizzwald's arguments seems to look like WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, to me. But, perhaps the tricentennial should also be removed. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 17:33, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, that's all I was wondering. Thanks :) (Grizzwald 18:14, 5 September 2007 (UTC))
