Wikipedia talk:Selected anniversaries/June 5

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the talk page for making suggestions or discussing improvements to Wikipedia:Selected anniversaries/June 5.

  • Before making a suggestion, please read the selected anniversaries guidelines. This list usually defers to supporting pages when there is disagreement, so it is best to achieve consensus and make any necessary changes there first.
  • To discuss improvements to the corresponding June 5 article, see Talk:June 5 instead.

I italicized the "Recent Days" section in order to make it consistent with the changes I made to the "recently featured" format. It is now easier to distinguish and consistent. Sure you could have distinguished it before, but the key to usability is to distinguish something before thinking about it and without any effort. Consistency is also important because it relates the the former, inconsistent things require a conscious process and are a stressor.

There are also 3 recent days because 3 is the classic number for such things on Wikipedia and pretty much everywhere else as well. It looked odd and inconsistent to have 3 "recently fatured" and only 2 "recent days". I hope you will consider my changes with a critical eye and only revert if you came up with a better solution, not just because its different from the standard. --Exigentsky 23:55, Jun 5, 2004 (UTC)

Indeed seeing as its all over the news. Abel29a 13:28, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Looking back at the edit history, it seems that the Six-Day War reference was hidden for POV issues. While that particular reference may indeed have POV issues, I agree that the Six-Day War must be mentioned in one way or another --Colonel Cow 13:46, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Looks like Operation Focus is the option. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 19:06, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
