This is inconsistent with the article for November 17 which states that:
Obviously these conflict each other, with Columbus landing before actually sighting Puerto Rico. I lack specific dates, however. -- 90.209.127.236 ( talk) 21:51, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I removed the anniversary "2002 - New Jersey schools ban dodgeball and tag." While this can be considered of some importance, ie relating to "zero tolerance" policies, the issue is a local one, and is hardly of importance compared with the other anniversaries, which are influential or memorable events. This event was neither in my opinion
What the heck is "fictional holidays" supposed to mean? Is someone saying that Calvin and Hobbes Day is not a real holiday? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.223.90.109 ( talk • contribs) 19:39, 5 December 2005
Calvin and Hobbes Day most certainly is a real holiday. In fact, my addition to the article mentioning it was there for months before you came along. A journalist even mentioned Calvin and Hobbes Day in an article they wrote. [1] A putting Calvin and Hobbes Day back on the article. If you remove it, I will simply put it back on again —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.223.90.109 ( talk • contribs) 01:31, 6 December 2005
Just because a holiday is not regognised by the goverment, does not mean it isn't a holiday at all. Calvin and Hobbes Day can be regognised as an obscure holiday. (along with smores day, talk like a pirate day, Literature week, ect.) Maybe someone can write an article listing the obscure holidays.-- FelineFanatic13 15:33, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
Can we add a comment such as <!-- Please do not add Calvin and Hobbes Day to this section until Consensus is reached on the talk page --> ? I'm not sure if the line from Good-faith to Bad-faith has been crossed and this could be considered vandalism, but a note might stop all the reverts without putting a ban up.

I am not the user who put Calvin and Hobbes Day on the article. The only reason I do keep puting it back is that it was accepted by wikipedia for 26 days. In my opinion, that's enough reason to keep it there. If only two people agree it should stay, I will stop putting it up. -- FelineFanatic13 21:17, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
Seems to be a new meme out there, "National Have Sex with a Guy with a Mustache Day". Will it achieve persistent notability enough to warrant mention? I'm not certain. However, I thought I'd at least broach the subject here and people can keep an ear out. 67.149.196.50 ( talk) 04:39, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
Whoa we've got the records for what happened on 11/18/2006 and it's only been that date for one and a half hours! The Texas Drama King 07:31, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
I’ve moved a line about the death of boxer, Kim Duk-koo to this page, from the entry on the 17th November. I did this the article on Kim Duk-koo gives 18th November as the day of his death.

Margaret Atwood (b. November 18, 1939) should be restored to the list of births on this date. Her entry, as it appeared until November 14, was as shown below:
Atwood's entry disappeared when the entry for Margaret Jay, born on the same date, was added.
Thank you! 2607:FEA8:22A0:280:AC4E:5A4B:F10B:2515 ( talk) 23:50, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
