Talk:February 25

message: Don Knotts died on the 24th, not the 25th, and is listed under "Deaths" on both days. I removed his name from the list for the 25th, but the change was reverted. Anyone else care to try? 129.22.35.189 02:55, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Deaths 

message: Back on 14 December 2004, some good soul operating from IP 62.16.235.193 added Brendon Baerg into the Feb 25th births, listing it as 1998.  Over two years later, yours truly comes along, happens to spot the name because it's at the end of the list, does some quick math & figures out that this American Actor must only be 9 years old!  Wow!  And he's famous enough to have his own Wikipedia Article!  I'd better check this kid out!  So I click over to his article, only to discover that, although he was, indeed, a child actor, he's now about to turn 31, as he was actually born in 1976!! it appeared that he was born in 1976, because someone had been vandalizing the article and changed the year of his birth!
So I corrected changed the Feb 25th Births listing. I'm sure it was an honest mistake, as he had a movie released in 1998.  The thing that amazes me is the HUNDREDS of people who edited this article in the intervening two years who (apparently) didn't notice that little discrepancy!  Mind you, I'm SO not criticizing those hundreds of people, but merely marveling that it does, indeed, take a very LARGE village to write an encyclopedia! <g>  The very particular lens through which each one of us looks at this project is uniquely valuable!  Write on!!  ~~ Mpwrmnt 11:32, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

message: February 14 also has Mr K denouncing Stalin in a speech. So do other sources. Unless he gave two such speeches, maybe this one is wrong. Alpheus 00:44, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Khrushchev's speech

message: Is there a reason why this page is structured differently (Deaths pre-19th Century etc) to the other date articles? PrincessPersnickety (talk) 21:21, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I was wondering this myself... I checked through the page history: this is all the work of one user starting in June 2020. This is the last version before his edits... I can't see anything in this talk page about why these changes were made... or why this page was chosen if this is some sort of pilot project. Paris1127 (talk) 23:19, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I can't find anything either.  It's been over 8 months and none of the other pages have been done (that I can see) so I think I'm going to revert and leave a message on the editor's talk page. PrincessPersnickety (talk) 17:59, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

text: That's fine, but maybe a notice would be helpful or it looks like a random change.PrincessPersnickety (talk) 18:42, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: It might help. You'd be best advised to take the suggestion to WT:DOY because it will need to apply project-wide if agreed, not just in this article and a few others. Thanks. No Great Shaker (talk) 18:50, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Different structure to other date articles 

message: I don't know how to add things within the style of the list and I'd rather not mess up what you guys are working with, but Turkish Airlines flight 1951 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_Airlines_Flight_1951) crashed on this date and is a notable aviation accident.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Coolkirk1701 (talk • contribs) 16:00, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
