Talk:1995

message: Ok a few weeks i added Dua Lipa on the Births list.
I added a picture that was also on her own page here the page that she was written about her.
Now that picture here is GONE. WHY?.
I did it in the same way others had and it looked fine so why did it get removed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.206.155.74 (talk) 17:45, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

message: There is a discussion on my talk page on page layout. 
For most of the last three hundred years there is inconsistency and duplication between the year in topic paragraph, the "see also" box and what is on the year by topic pages. Prior to 1950 I am pretty convinced we can painlessly (except for sore fingers) delete all of the year in topic paragraphs and ensure that the material goes into a "see also" box, creating such a box where none exists. Post 1950, particularly from the "year in US television" link a lot of material has been added to this paragraph as highlights (sometimes making up most of the page content pointed at). 
Personally I think we should still delete the paragraph, keep the box linking to the topic sites and move any particularly important parts of the year in topic paragraph to the main chronological list. This does involve undoing quite a bit of work which someone has done. 
Therefore, unlike for prior to 1950 (where I've said no objection= I do it) for post 1950 I won't touch these pages unless a significant number of people agree with the change. (I am also unlikely to get the pre 1950 stuff done before summer unless the service speed improves dramatically). talk--BozMo 13:41, 7 May 2004 (UTC)

message: I removed a reference to the Nov 22 Earthquake being possibly thought of as "Divine" anger at some EU-Israel treaty. I think if this is true then the event should have its own page and a discussion of what happened, along with external references. I'm fairly certain that this page is meant only as a summary rather than a detailed examination of the subject. One Salient Oversight 04:26, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)

message: I can understand the desire to have an image of Selena in deaths, but the tribute drawing is clearly inappropriate.  There is an (almost) realistic drawing, the grave, or the statue which could be added.  I'd go with the statue, as en.Wikipedia recognizes "freedom of panorama".  If I don't hear anything, I'll add it a day or so if this clearly inappropriate image stays off.  Added more realistic drawing, although the memorial statue is probably a better choice. — Arthur Rubin  (talk) 15:53, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

message: just added the release of the Sony PlayStation in September 1995, but that console was first released in Japan in December 1994. I agree it's a significant event, but it should be moved to the previous year. — JFG talk 20:49, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: IIRC, the only significant console release of '95 was the Virtual Boy. Sega Saturn debuted in November '94, and the N64 wasn't released until June 1996. Technically the Game Boy Pocket and Nomad would also be listed, but those were simply variations of existing consoles. MightyArms (talk) 23:25, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

message: "October 17 – French woman Jeanne Calment reaches the confirmed age of 120 years and 238 days, making her the oldest person ever recorded." - Calment is the only person to ever have exceeded 120 years, and according to the List of the verified oldest people she obtained the record of oldest person ever already 4 years earlier when she surpassed Tane Ikai, the current #16. I guess this line is a hoax and deserves to be removed? --KnightMove (talk) 07:15, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: At the time, Shigechiyo Izumi was regarded as a confirmed 120-year-old, but that has since been called into serious question. DefThree (talk) 13:11, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, thank you. Then I am, in principal, willing to insert it again with more comment. But two problems persist: Our article Shigechiyo Izumi assumes August 20, 1865 as the reported birth date. But the calculation with 120 years and 238 days uses June 29, 1865, as is entered in the French Wikipedia, :fr:Shigechiyo Izumi. Currently it is unclear which date the Guinness World Records believed to be true. If it is the June 29, this must be corrected and explained in the biography article. And even then it remains to be proven that citable sources have regarded that October 17, 1995, as remarkable for that reason. --KnightMove (talk) 06:28, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
