removed 1819 Factory Act. There was no Factory Act passed in Britain in 1819.
1928 United Kingdom, representation of the people's act, allowing women the right to vote. Facebook post from UK Parliamentary Archives here: https://www.facebook.com/114697578628112/photos/a.627354367362428.1073741825.114697578628112/1651882738242914/?type=3
Births: Eugent Bushpepa - Albanian musician, represented Albania in Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) in 2018. Roman Lobb - German singer, represented Germany in ESC. Diana Gurtskaya - Georgian singer, represented Georgia in ESC. All of them have pages on here, so easy to include them in the births list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8308:1BE:A00:BCBC:903A:FE2:101 ( talk) 20:00, 2 July 2018 (UTC)
According to the Flag Day article, Curacao observe their Flag Day on 2 June not 2 July. So it should be removed, shouldn't it? Elspooky ( talk) 10:38, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
"In countries that use summer time the actual exact time of the midpoint in a common year is at 1:00 p.m, or 11:00 a.m for countries in the southern hemisphere; this is when 182 days and 12 hours have elapsed and there are 182 days and 12 hours remaining."
This statement seems to be complete nonsense. Are there any countries in the southern hemisphere which use summer time in July ? And, if there was any, the "middle hour of the year", would still be 1 p.m., and not 11 am as claimed, because that would correspond to noon in that country's standard time.

I thought this was nonsensical too, and I came here to say so. But thanks to your mention of "summer time in July" being wrong in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) I saw the light (pun intended). That is wrong, SH summer is in January. But that is why the 11:00 midpoint is exactly correct for SH locations that observe Daylight Savings Time (DST, aka summer time). In Australia DST is in effect when the year changes, December/January. So 11:00am July 2 (or 11pm July 1st in leap-years) is their midpoint of the year precisely because July is NOT in daylight savings time. Bob Stein - VisiBone ( talk) 16:28, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
