The page has James May as being born in 1969 whereas his page states he was born in 1963...? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.86.193.76 (talk) 18:56, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The years project does not NEARLY capture the whole cultural impact of this year - it was the end of an era. Something more has to be said here.
Rose Bowl? Northern ireland fair enough (look what happened!) but who gives a damn about minor American Trivia in this year. That belongs on a specialist US page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.147.14.39 (talk) 17:06, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There is a discussion on my talk page on page layout.
For most of the last three hundred years there is inconsistency and duplication between the year in topic paragraph, the "see also" box and what is on the year by topic pages. Prior to 1950 I am pretty convinced we can painlessly (except for sore fingers) delete all of the year in topic paragraphs and ensure that the material goes into a "see also" box, creating such a box where none exists. Post 1950, particularly from the "year in US television" link a lot of material has been added to this paragraph as highlights (sometimes making up most of the page content pointed at).
Personally I think we should still delete the paragraph, keep the box linking to the topic sites and move any particularly important parts of the year in topic paragraph to the main chronological list. This does involve undoing quite a bit of work which someone has done.
Therefore, unlike for prior to 1950 (where I've said no objection= I do it) for post 1950 I won't touch these pages unless a significant number of people agree with the change. (I am also unlikely to get the pre 1950 stuff done before summer unless the service speed improves dramatically). talk--BozMo 14:04, 7 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
Somebody wrote that Micky Mantle announced his retirement "while eating a bag of poop." I've removed this until it has been confirmed. -Tom
[edit]February 1969 is linking to Larry-the-Cable-Guy, where it lists "Larry's" birth year as 1963 . Someone may want to correct that.
[edit]According to this page, Monty Python's Flying Circus originally aired October 5th. But according to this page, it originally aired September 7. Which one is real? --71.224.19.29 15:58, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Image:Getback roof.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 23:09, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]First release of the Amen Break :). 1969 was such an eventful year! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.100.41.139 (talk) 16:32, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I corrected several errors on Soviet Union spacecraft dates. However, these were only in January and probably continue onto the rest of the article as well. The problem is, many of the articles for the specified craft list no references, making it difficult to quickly verify the dates. If someone can scan through the article and make sure all dates are correct, and maybe find some sources for the individual articles on the craft, it would greatly improve the article.

[edit]He's listed as a birth here, but his article states he was born in 1971. Which is right? -Scyrene (not logged in) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.200.110.97 (talk) 03:03, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Before cabman Monasterio, ETA have killed 2 people : José Pardines and Melitón Manzanas, both in 1968. Despite the deception to the contrary in current Spain, the baby girl Begoña Urroz was killed in 1960 by the DRIL, a Portuguese and Spaniard armed group opposed to Franco's ans Salazar's dictatorships. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.8.98.118 (talk) 13:30, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]The Murchison meteorite, September 28 is described as one of the most studied meteorites ever. "This specimen demonstrates that many organic compounds could have been delivered by early Solar System bodies and may have played a key role in life's origin." I propose it's included.

Per WP:DOYCITE, Any material lacking a reliable source directly supporting it may be removed and should not be restored without an inline citation to a reliable source. A blue link to a Wikipedia article is not sufficient. Most project members are reverting new additions without direct sources on sight. Elizium23 (talk) 19:32, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
SomeBodyAnyBody05, this isn't the place to argue that you don't agree with WP:DOYCITE and WP:DOYSTYLE. The discussion that established that rule is at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Days_of_the_year/Archive_13#Exemption_from_WP:V. I'd suggest raising your objections at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Days_of_the_year. Schazjmd (talk) 20:35, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gay sex was decriminalized June 27, 1969, in Canada, which I think is pretty important? Am I missing something or was this just not added for no particular reason, and can I then add it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aromantic Frogge (talk • contribs) 19:59, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
