Wikipedia policy indicates that no edits are allowed on this topic without discussion therefore I have not made the necessary correction. The entry records that Germany and Russia invaded Poland on September 1, 1939, this is incorrect. While Germany invaded on September 1, Russia did not invade until September 17 [see, Antony Beevor, The Second World War (2012), p. 32; or any standard historical text on WWII]. I suppose September 1 is in the ballpark, and would meet Wikipedia standards but it is otherwise in error. LAWinans ( talk) 16:42, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

Since no discussion has occurred on this talk page on the topic for which this article was protected, I suggest that the article be unprotected and the topic in question (1758 founding of a US town) be removed. If discussion on this is required, perhaps this will get the ball rolling. I'd be glad to participate. -- Mufka (user) (talk) (contribs) 18:07, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
Fellow editors, I have been asked to take an impartial look at the dispute regarding the notability of the founding of Stephensburgh as regards its entry on the day page for September 1.
Looking at the discussion so far it seems that there are these points.
The date appears to me to be suffering from the official record not being clear and as a result the 1st has been chosen retrospectively as the official date, but that does not make it the true date of founding. If the founding took place after the granting of a charter by Virginia’s Colonial General Assembly, even if the founding took place on the day the charter was granted and also if the charter was granted on the first day of the assembly the earliest it could have been is the 14th.
The presence of Fairfax or for that matter any Englishman is not a matter of any great note, admittedly he was the only peer resident in colonial America but had been in Virginia since the mid 1730s so perhaps it could be said he was (had the US been a nation at the time) just another American and with a large landholding some 5 million acres it is not surprising that he took an interest in local affairs, as the rich and powerful seem inclined to do.
So to the general notability of the town itself. Is it the oldest, biggest, most powerful, or any other superlative? As far as I can see not; it is the second oldest town in the Shenandoah Valley, and with a population of less than 2000 not large, and not the capital of anywhere. A nice place to live but notable on a global scale over time, no.
Personally I can see no reason that the 1758 September 1 listing is retained. -- Drappel 21:11, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
It's trivial, no matter what day you put it on. I've pointed you to the policies, practices, and guidelines regarding entries to these pages, and multiple editors have removed it, to boot. It's gone. -- Calton | Talk 20:31, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Policy Reality Check, Number 237 in a Series: This event is not notable enough for inclusion in Days of the Year pages, since it's not important on a global, national, or even state-wide level. It's not the first of anything, it paved the way for no particular history, it illuminates no larger issue or historical trend, and is of no importance outside of a very small locality. It's objectively non-notable and completely trivial, no matter how you spin it. I've pointed you to numerous precedents, and it's been removed and/or opposed by multiple uninvolved editors: it's your obsession and your obsession alone, however immune you are to actual discussion, and it's going out. Clear? -- Calton | Talk 03:07, 19 July 2007 (UTC).

This is notable because a sub division team beat a college power house. It was the biggest audience App State ever had in college football. I also believe people care for college football the same or more than Luxembourg going digital in television, so I belive that should be placed with it for being an important date on september 1st —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.145.95.117 ( talk) 19:12, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
Could we add a fictional heading to some days, this day included, and state events that happen in fiction. For example today, September 1 is the day the train leaves for Hogwarts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.201.52.159 ( talk) 15:29, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

I think these date pages would all look a lot better if somebody wrote an engaging prose summary of the most notable events at the start like I've done here. They look bare without and I also think having some decent sources to support some of the more notable events can only help its encyclopedic value and quality and make it easier for the reader to extract from. I do hope that others follow my example in other pages. Even if a list, lists should have a decent lead at least.♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:25, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

It seems that the owners are happy to edit war to stop any changes on this page. Shame, as it will remain a fairly shoddy page. - SchroCat ( talk) 21:49, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
Hmm, yes: a 2005 consensus? That's not a great benchmark, considering it was agreed up before most of our quality standards were introduced. A nine year old consensus on Wiki is something that pre-dates the dark ages: it's like saying that because the dinosaurs agreed this, then we're going to stick with it. The world has moved on, Wikipedia has moved on, and our standards have moved on. It's time these unsourced, unsupported and non-MoS compliant pages joined the real world. - SchroCat ( talk) 18:09, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
"I can see _some_ of the arguments being good faith, although questionable": this shows a rather arrogant attitude to others. There have been a stack of extremely experienced and knowledgable editors who have commented on this, and to reject their arguments just because they have the temerity to disagree with you, says more about you than them, tbh. – SchroCat ( talk) 20:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
