May 29:

Igor Stravinsky

More events: May 28May 29May 30

It is now 18:55, June 8, 2008 (UTC) – Refresh this page

Why does the page for May 29 say that it is the 152nd day of the year? And similarly May 30 and May 31 are three days too high. May 28 and earlier days are accurately reckoned. So are June 1 and later days.


I read an article about the Council of Contance, and it mentioned that it lasted from the autumn of 1414 till April 1418. So why is it on this page? The Wikipedia article about the council does not say anything about dates (only years). If no one objects, I will remove this entry, as it seems to be wrong. --zeno 22:00, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)


Removed ref to Stephanie Konemann/Brice Nelson - no notable google links that pop out - needs clarification. Dysprosia 07:33, 24 Feb 2004 (UTC)


It came to my attention that the date the Fall of Constantinople happened, was May 29 according to Julian and not Gregorian calendar. It was a Tuesday. Should the date change to June 7 or note the different calendar? --geraki 20:26, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)


I removed this entry:

  • 1954 - William Charles Sosnowski, Inventor. Invented the popular "Pet Rock"

as pet rock says that "Pet Rocks were a 1970s fad conceived by Los Gatos, California, advertising executive Gary Dahl." -- Earle Martin [t|c] 23:06, 5 September 2005 (UTC) [birthday: May 29]

[edit] May 29 USA federal holiday Memorial Day

May 29 USA federal holiday Memorial Day —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.240.176.2 (talkcontribs) 21:25, 2006 May 11.

Added, with mention that it's the last Monday of May. Thank you. This is useful reference material that people keep removing. -- PFHLai 23:18, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Unfortunately, "May 29" is not memorial day, "last monday in May" is. Movable holidays shouldn't be listed in a non-year specific day article, it's more appropiate at May_2006#29_May_2006. (If movable holidays were to be added, they;d have to be added to every day from May 25-31, as they all could be the last monday on different years) Regards, MartinRe 10:35, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My Vital Statistic....

My brithdate on 1978, which I hate to mention, was removed, although I see no history of it; or the adding, I'll try again, however, I saw it as a vital statistic based in Toronto, Ontario.

[edit] Links to vital statistics and reliable sources....

Are there any? I added them when I added me. Both Ontario's V-Stats and I were removed, and I was lectured on adding reliable sources and references? You have a lot of nerve.

[edit] Liturgical feasts

Saint Maximinus of Trier is the only one on May 29th in my Saint Book, oh and Liturgical feasts are not saint days, they are assensions and ordinary time, sundays of easter and so on....from the Liturgy (is the word). Check your Missel.
