message: Right, there’s a BIT of stuff going on.
I’m a blogger: and have managed to come up with a well received post about Batman’s first appearance, which I’d initial thought was in March, 1939.   After all, it WAS mentioned in the relevant day of the year entry.   (For [March.])
My of my regular readers, however, found THIS link: on DC’s own site, that stated the original release date was 17th May!
Can we get any kind of confirmation of this?
Or clean-up?
Thanks!

message: In accordance with the guidelines, I'm continuing to weed the Births and Deaths sections by removing entries for celebrities with 0-4 articles in other languages.  Where possible, these have been transferred to the relevant Year in Topic articles. As well as making the lists more manageable, this will help with the globalization effort.Deb (talk) 18:26, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

message: The Events section says, "2004 – The first legal same-sex marriages in the U.S. are performed in the state of Massachusetts." However, the article Timeline of same-sex marriage in the United States#1970s says, Jack Baker and Michael McConnell apply and are granted a marriage licence in Blue Earth County, Minnesota after discovering the county has no laws prohibiting same sex marriage. Therefore on 3, Sept, 1971 both men became the first legally married same sex couple in US and modern recorded history. JezGrove (talk) 15:59, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
