Okay, I've been bold (Warsaw Uprising replaces US census, especially for the 60th anniversary). I wasn't so sure that this was the right deletion, but the census article doesn't make such a big thing about the first US census and there were many other earlier ones which aren't listed.

I've added the outbreak of World War I (it's the 80th anniversary tomorrow), which is surely a significant anniversary. However, this pushes the number of articles over the allowed limit of four. I've removed the People's Liberation Army and Charles Whitman items, as they are clearly less significant than the remaining four. -- ChrisO 12:39, 31 Jul 2004 (UTC)
