As of March 2004 [[Dachau concentration camp] is a stub
Is there an article about the Great Fire of Boston? If not, let's delete it from this page. RickK | Talk 07:09, 14 Mar 2004 (UTC)
I don't know if this is the right place to say this but it's odd how the equinox is considered "2004" since it's really every year. How can we fix this?
As of March 19, 2004 there are NPOV and accuracy disputes on that page. When/if this changes then this entry can be placed back in. -- mav 22:36, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Looks like a bunch of non- Gregorian calendar based holidays and observations that are normally on these Selected anniversaries pages will fall on the same day in 2008. Of course, the WP:SA currently says "a maximum of ... 3 holidays/observances per day", but it would feel POV to pick one or more of these observations to omit this year just to strictly observe the Wikipedia guideline, right?

One of the item of "On this day" is that "After escaping from exile in Elba, Napoleon Bonaparte (pictured) entered Paris, officially beginning his "Hundred Days" rule."
Really? Did Napoleon proclaim of Hundred Days rule? Did he perhaps state he would only be back for a short time. With just enough time to travel to
Waterloo have a chat with
|Wellington and then take a long holiday?
The term "Hundred Days" was invented after this period so there never was an official start. Better would it be to say that historians see his arrival in Paris as the start of the Hundred Days.
