USSR / Afghanistan

November 29 - Soviet invasion of Afghanistan: The United Nations General Assembly passes United Nations Resolution 37, stating that the Soviet Union should withdraw from Afghanistan.

This entry is a complete mistake ?? or a fake ? There was an invations on Dec 1979, but this one ?? Am I right or wrong ? Regards J*rgen Lund, Copenhagen Nick: The Librarian

Page layout years

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 13:51, 7 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Dengue fever in Cuba

I removed the Dengue fever outbreak in Cuba for two reasons - firstly, I haven't found any other links substantiating the number infected in one day, secondly the WHO report on DHF in Cuba (written, you may note, by Cuban scientists) states that the outbreak was in 1981 WHO report. If the comment can't even get the year right, why should we believe that allegations that the CIA was responsible are sufficiently confirmed to be non POV? Also, it is quite possible for an infectious disease to spread from south east Asia to Cuba without the help of the CIA. Average Earthman 09:42, 26 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Iraq

I removed "estonia's first casualty in iraqi war in the coalition of the willing" because there was in my opinion a mistake in the year (not sure which year it happened but i'm quite positive it wasn't february 1982)

Disambig might be needed

We might need a disambig link for this page. 1982 is also the name of Randy Travis' first hit. - Thanks, Hoshie 10:43, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Does the song have an article? --TM 13:01, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No not yet. I have the song on my iPod and was trying to use the wiki to find an article about it and I ended up here. - Thanks, Hoshie 03:39, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation pages are really only necessary when there is actually another article to link to, otherwise it doesn't serve much purpose. (And for the song to have its own article it must meet importance guidelines, I'm not sure on the criteria for individual songs though.) --TM 15:20, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Awards

After reading the page, I noticed the awards section seems a little awkward - in particular, there's a subsection for firlds medalists, nobel prizes and the templeton prize, and I intend to merge those three sections into a single Awards section. Since the current method is in use for the various years, I want to have comments before I actually merge the section - in my opinion, this would be a bold edit that goes against the current standard. --Sigma 7 (talk) 20:51, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
