 Whole Lotta Darwin? 

Just a query. Is the appearance of Charles Darwin in every section of today's Main Page except ""In The News"" intentional?   
Almost certainly. As you'll have noticed, it's his 200th birthday. Algebraist 
Here is the discussion on the timing of today's featured article. Algebraist 
Shiny. Thanks )   
It's also Abraham Lincoln's 200th birthday and he gets shafted.    
He's mentioned once in OTD and twice in DYK. If you had a relevant TFA choice, you should've posted it to Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests at the appropriate time (weeks ago). Algebraist 
I stand corrected, but it is still 5:3 in favor of Darwin.  
Is your suggestion to put licoln's name twice randomly on main page to make it even?

Hey - this'll start a bunfight. It could be argued that in the grand scheme of things, Darwin is way more important - his discoveries have a worldwide importance and effect, while ol Abe really only affected the US. 86.155.202.152  
I was going to say the same thing. Darwin is far more significant in the longrun and worldwide.   
Really? I think Darwin was weird, but everyo
