  • 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.

I would like to suggest that Sweetest Day be added as one of the holidays. It should say something like:

October 22: International Stuttering Awareness Day, Sweetest Day in the United States

I'd pass, as long as the {{dispute}} tag is on Sweetest Day. Not sure if this Hallmark holiday is notable enough, anyway. -- PFHLai 02:31, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
Looks like people are now edit-warring on Sweetest Day. So let's not put it on MainPage. The 3rd Saturday in October is not October 22, anyway. --PFHLai 16:28, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Do not forget 100th anniversary of first heavier-than-air flight by Alberto Santos-Dumont today. --R.Sabbatini 21:55, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Wish I had seen this earlier. :-( Anyway, it's now on the Sel.Anniv. template for Oct.23rd and hopefully will appear on MainPage in 2007. --PFHLai 09:33, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Great Disappointment

I suggest a rename of the "great disappointment" to the following:

The Seventh-day Adventist Church sprang out of the Great Disappointment, and is the most prominent such group today, however there were also other groups which faded into nonexistence, and also others which remain today but are less notable. Colin MacLaurin 08:26, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
