May 25: Africa Day ( 1963); Independence Day in Jordan ( 1946)
|
This is certainly a notable event. I recommend linking the event to the article (or creating one). That would be an appropriate forum to present research regarding the occupation, withdrawal, and related events. True or not, the deleted sentence is more a matter for such an article than it is for the events section of a date article. Rklawton 21:08, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
Eric Julien perdicts that this day in 2006, a cataclysmic wave will strike the east coast of america.

I get conflicting information about whether Carpet Day is always celebrated on May 25, or whether it's a floating holiday observed on the last Sunday in May. [1] vs. [2] Joyous! | Talk 15:51, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
This was the day Hands Across America took place in 1986; I was wondering why this was up but then removed? I put it back up last week, but it's disappeared again. I know it didn't ultimately work, but it was a pretty big day in American history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by UCH-Matt ( talk • contribs) 18:09, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
It does seem rather significant that several million people participated in an event together all at once. That sort of thing does not happen every day. Thoughts? LiquidInkspot ( talk) 02:55, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
I tried to add Nerd Pride Day under "Holidays and observances", which I think is fitting, but it has been removed several times already. I see it rather equivalent to Towel Day and other similar holidays, but appearently someone disagrees with me. That may not be the part that worries me the most; I got several messages calling my edit "unconstructive" (I can't see how it is any different from the other links) and I was also called a "vandal". That is ridiculous. It may not fit in the article in your eyes, but I'm not a Vandal.

It's back as "Geek Pride Day". I suggest it be removed from here. It seems to be a private initiative. Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 12:44, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
I tried to add Celtic F.C. 1967 European Champions Cup win under "Events", which I think is appropriate, but it has been removed several times.
My entry is: 1967 – Celtic F.C. become the first northern European team to win the European Champions Cup, which had previously been the preserve of Italian, Portuguese and Spanish clubs by beating F.C. Internazionale Milano 2 – 1.
I see an equivalent event entry for: 1968 - Manchester United win the European Cup, the first English Club to do so.
Celtic F.C.’s 1967 European Cup win is a greater and more notable achievement than Manchester United’s 1968 win that is already listed in the calendar for MAY 29.
First, I was informed by CalendarWatcher that “that's REALLY stretching notability”.
Second, that “it's a ridiculously artificial distinction made in order to claim some sort of distinction”.
Third, that “you've drawn a purely artificial line ('first northern European club'? Can't bring yourself to say 'British', can you?) claim a distinction of no real import)”.
In response let me point out that this is a notable sports achievement listed in the Events of
1967 Wikipedia page, and the term “first northern European team” is a quote taken from both the
Celtic F.C. and May
1967 Wikipedia pages.
Northern Europe is a destinct area as define by the United Nations and descibed in Wikipedia as is Eastern Europe and Southern Europe.
Celtic's achievement went far beyond the British isles.
I think the Istanbul miracle should be added too. User:miroa12004 —Preceding undated comment added 21:50, 2 June 2009 (UTC).

The main page can use a new redirection section of things or objects which are named for dates in various cultures. E.g., Veinticinco de Mayo. 143.232.210.38 ( talk) 18:03, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
On this page, it says that Owens broke five world records and tied a sixth, however on the Jesse Owens page, it says that he broke three and tied a forth. I do not know which one is correct, however this inconsistency should be corrected. POTUS270 12:37, 25 May 2010 (UTC) timestamp fixed by -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 11:15, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Why is memorial day 2015 not listed? I googled May 25 to see why it was highlighted on my calendar and the wiki page had no reference, even though it has hundreds of references to historic events and trivial stuff like a list of birthdays. — Preceding

When you go to "Day of Youth" (which is rather "Youth Day" when you get there) you discover that it "was celebrated throughout the former Yugoslavia". Is this list of "holidays and observances" meant to include holidays or observances that no longer exist? -- Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 13:52, 25 May 2015 (UTC) ok, I've removed it. -- Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 12:46, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
not notable, seems like a club activity. I suggest it be removed from here. -- Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 12:49, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
On May 25, 2020, an incident at Central Park happened. A white woman, Amy Cooper, called the police after a black man Christian Cooper (no relation) told Amy to put her dog on a leash. It happened on the same day as the murder of George Floyd. Both incidents gained international attention due to both being about racism against Black Americans. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Flossingjonah ( talk • contribs) 19:57, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
