Miss America

edit

Day uncertain (may be Sept 6, 7 or 8th for crowning but I could not find the day that the pageant started)

Rwanda

edit

Entry in here twice: 1988 and 1998 --> A United Nations court finds Jean-Paul Akayesu, the former mayor of a small town in Rwanda, guilty of nine counts of genocide, marking the first time that the 1948 law banning genocide is enforced

I assume it has to be 1998, but would like to ask someone else to make the final decision.

thanks, deadstar

Chianese

edit

Dominic Chianese birthday entry incorrect, commented out. 2/24/31, not 9/2/34 despite what The Sopranos website says. JohnH

1916: 16 German zepplins bombed London, killing 93 people and injuring 691. Could someone care to put this in?

Zeppelin

edit

1925 - The U.S. Zeppelin the USS Shenandoah crashes, killing 14. <-- It crashed on September 3, not September 2 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.180.175.30 (talk) 21:26, 21 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Google Chrome

edit

Google chrome was released on 2nd of september, and even google refers to 2nd of september as the birthdate of google chrome: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/09/back-to-future-two-years-of-google.html is it worth adding to the list? (Kinda new to wiki sorry if I'm doing anything wrong) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.8.2.157 (talk) 12:49, 4 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

First, it's a future event and future events never get added under any circumstances. Second, it isn't a notable event per WP:DOY and it shouldn't be included. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 14:58, 17 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Simeon Stylites

edit

The death of Simeon Stylites is mentioned here, but, he is listed as simply "Turkish saint". This is misleading, since he was not descended from the Turkic people who were not even in the area at this time, nor was he from a place called Turkey. I changed it to state a piller-hermit (with a link to stylites) and saint. but, since it seems it is practice to give some indication as to the country a person was from, I think I should add Byzantine, or Roman. The problem is, Roman could confuse people that he was from Rome. Another problem is the person above Stylites is a Roman emperor who also died a few years earlier, so it would look silly to list a Roman emperor and then a Byzantine saint. So perhaps to list him as Eastern Roman? But I will just put Byzantine for now, if anyone has a better idea then shoot.75.73.114.111 (talk) 19:01, 2 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Ivan Mauger

edit

I have again inserted Ivan Maugers achievement as being a significant event. He is the only person to have won six Individual Speedway World Championship Finals. He did this when the whole of the planet could qualify for such an event, it was a true World Championship. In 1995 the International Speedway Organisation (FIM) dropped the one night final for an elite GP championship, which is like F1 and is not a genuine world championship. So as it stands Ivan Mauger possibly will retain this title indefinitely. I do feel this event worthy of an entry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Darmech (talkcontribs) 02:01, 12 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

2001 – The adult-oriented television block Adult Swim debuts on Cartoon Network.
The cite tag is malformed. Presumably this is merely a type, but title=The History Of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim should be added /fixed.130.233.2.170 (talk) 08:36, 2 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
