replies: text: When I clicked on International Men's Day it was in the process of being speedy deleted.  Now that tag is not on the page for whatever reason.  Seeing as how the page was being deleted, it seemed it was vandalism, so I deleted the entry.  If it's a legitimate entry, I apologize and by all means, please put it up again.

thread_title: Untitled

message: Someone added in a listing for the now-famous brawl between Ron Artest and Ben Wallace in Auburn Hills, Michigan, in 2004. I went ahead and removed it as non-noteworthy, but I did want to bring it up before the editing community to see if maybe this particular event, because it spilled into the stands and may well have been fully triggered by a fan, would indeed be noteworthy. Opinions?

thread_title: "Malice at the Palace"

message: A recent edit, presumed to be in good faith, removed some events that, in my opinion, are still noteworthy and should be on the list.  The particular events, and why I believe they are:
*1954--Sammy Davis Jr. loses an eye in a traffic accident (this is a significant event in a noteworthy person's life)
*1955--First issue of National Review (a prominent and noteworthy magazine starts its life)
*1990--Milli Vanilli loses Grammy (major recording scandal comes to a head)
*1999--John Carpenter first to win $1m on "Millionaire" (first person to win the top prize on any version of the show)
Granted, these are my own opinions on the matter.  To that end, I have two questions to present.  First: why are these events not noteworthy?  Second: What should constitute "noteworthy" here?  I think there are some issues that are of lesser note that could be removed, but none of those were stricken in this particular edit.  If there is a really good template or litmus test to follow, please point me to it.  Thanks.  --McDoobAU93 05:58, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: None of these events are globally notable or would remain so for the next 50 years. First, Sammy Davis' injury was not a turning point in his life nor did it make him better, more famous, more notable, etc.  He was not known for having one eye.  As far as the rest of the world is concerned it is newsworthy but not noteworthy.  As far as the National Review:  The first issue is not in itself notable.  It did not change the world on that day.  No magazines are notable just because they were founded.  The Milli Vanilli entry is arguable only because AFAIK it is the only example of a Grammy being lost.  It still didn't change the world.  Likewise with the Millionaire thing.  Check out this for some ideas on what is generally accepted as notable enough for Wikicalendar articles.  I generally remove the items that jump out at me in a quick review and agree that there are always other items that need to be removed. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 17:54, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: What is noteworthy?

message: Hello. I see you removed theRandy Pausch Day from the November 19 article. (He's the computer professor with terminal cancer who has been giving very popular and inspirational speeches). I was wondering what level of importance was required for an observation to qualify for the list. Thanks!--Shizzy9989 (talk) 03:17, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This observance is not a recurring observance.  By that I mean that it only was observed on November 19, 2007.  In order for observances to be listed, they must recur on the same date each year.  Also, this is only an observance in Pittsburgh, PA.  -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 04:04, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
