Talk:January 26

message: ----
  (rv - previous two edits added non-notable people) 
Who decides who is notable here?  I added someone whose influence is quite widespread and is well-noted in education circles, even if not by the person who removed this.
:: The best way to show that someone is notable is to provide a source. If the person is notable enough to qualify for inclusion in an encyclopaedia, they will have been written about in a number of places - reputed sources, not personal blogs or school newsletters. I reverted this one because a web search for the name as you entered it failed to turn up a single hit. A wider search under first and last names only turned up one reference to a high-school counselor and someone at Ohio State, all incidental mentions. If there are articles or publications out there, web or otherwise, that show I'm wrong, I'm more than happy to stand corrected. Pipnosis 19:55, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I clicked on the link at the bottom, the one to the page about Terra (mythology) and it took me to a page about Gaia (mythology). Should this link point to Terra and not Gaia? (The Gaia page says the Roman equivalent is Terra, but of course the page is about Gaia.) I went ahead and changed the link to point to Terra, and after reading the Terra article, it mentions the January 26 date, so I assume that Terra is the correct page (and not Gaia).

message: As with other dates, I have been removing entries for people who have few or no articles in other language wikipedias and thus not internationally well known. This makes the section more manageable.  Where possible, those that have been removed have been transferred to the relevant Year in Topic articles. See Days of Year Project talk pages, where discussion is taking place as to how best to separate births and deaths sections from these articles. Deb (talk) 12:40, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
