message: *Removed: Battle of Trenton—combined with Washington's crossing of the Delaware on December 25
*New articles (unused): Donner Party
*Swapped out: Battle of Pułtusk/Battle of Golymin, Thespis (opera), Jack Johnson (boxer), Tupolev Tu-144
*Swapped in: Richmond Theatre fire (first appearance, 200th anniversary), Decembrist revolt (moved from December 14 (Julian date), 2nd consecutive appearance, 2 total), Flannan Isles (first appearance)
*Left in: 2006 Hengchun earthquake (3rd consecutive appearance, 3 total)—this is a triple-feature with 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and 2003 Bam earthquake, although they are not in bold because 2004 needs maintenance, and it would be odd to have 2003 bold but not 2004

message: The Battle of Trenton was fought on the morning of December 26. It can cause confusion with readers by listing it on December 25. (e.g. Special:Diff/600294847) Also, the crossing of the Delaware was completed in the early, pre-dawn hours of December 26, not the 25th. Consider listing both on the 26th. Thanks, Zeete (talk) 11:51, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
