77 people were slaughtered in Norway this day last year Of course since it wasn t in America it is absolutely unimportant and doesn t deserve a mention whatsoever so it seems And you lot still protest there is no pro US bias on this joke website Preceding unsigned comment added by 2 99 69 69 It could be suggested as an item for In The News But looking at the On This Day section I tend to agree that it s probably more notable than the arrest of Jeffrey Dahmer which although important in the US was surely less significant in terms of a particular day On what basis See below Oh I thought the accusations of jumping to conclusions and blaming others were meant for me It was on the basis that it s in the real news that s all So much for trying to open a dialogue with an anon ip Gosh I must be stupid No I indented that reply directly below the original poster s message not yours I replied to you above with a different indentation level and separate signature ITN focuses on major events when they occur not on subsequent remembrances excepting rare instances in which they re extremely noteworthy in and of themselves The 2011 Norway attacks were added to the 22 July queue and probably will appear on the main page next year As noted at Wikipedia talk Selected anniversaries July 22 the section s primary maintainer generally avoids listing one year old events If you disagree with this practice or wish to suggest any item you re welcome to participate in the selection process by posting on the relevant dates talk pages In fact you could have added the item to the active list yourself before the page was automatically protected yesterday But I suppose it s easier to jump to conclusions and blame others than it is to collaborate I don t do collaboration even if I did marking the anniversary of one of the worst terror attacks in European history should not be something that requires collaboration No doubt we can expect the anniversaries of insignificant events in the US to be remembered one year on though In fact I m willing to put money on a bet that the little shooting in the cinema this week gets a mention in one years time Preceding unsigned comment added by 2 99 69 69 In that case Wikipedia is not the place for you You expect this site to collaborate to bring about what you want to see Goodbye I ll take that bet Note that the 2011 Tucson shooting was added to the 8 January queue but did not appear on the main page this year Conversely the 2010 Togo national football team attack did appear On what do you base the assertion that U S items are treated differently On the simple fact that much of the US American population simply does not know or chooses to disregard the fact that outside of their national borders there are people who are not US American living in countries that are not part of US America This is a fact known to the rest of the international community Also in response to Kevin I m sorry I failed to inform you of my intent to post here as I understand it yo
