Lani Hall[edit]

I’ve moved Lani Hall: as the article about her lists her birthday as being on the 1st of November. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cuddy2977 (talk • contribs) 18:08, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

reference required in this case?[edit]

I corrected the new entry from an anonymous user to "1632 – King of Sweden Gustavus Adolphus dies in the battle of Lützen." But does this new entry also require a source from outside? (otherwise this book "Williamson, David. Debrett's Kings and Queens of Europe. pp. 124, 128, 194, 207. ISBN 0-86350-194-X." could be consulted if someone has access to this) Kind regards Saschaporsche (talk) 09:48, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unusually sparse entries[edit]

This date page is unusually empty compared to the pages for the 5th and the 7th; and the front page entry for this shows events that aren't marked on this page. Is there a reason for this? Fukkaudeku (talk) 17:15, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
