Joyce
editAs this is James Joyce's birthday and the original date of publication for Ulysses and Finnegans Wake, I feel that Joyce should be given at least some attention. The Joyceans I know are very feisty, and something even this simple would just make their days. M. Luke Myers 03:32, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
Greetings to my friends, neighbors, Wikipaedians, and children of the Pleiadean systems. Once again, I am disappointed by the lack of Joyce in the daily mailings. This is supposed to be a day to re-Joyce. M. Luke Myers 03:46, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry, but under the guidelines of the "On this day/Selected anniversaries" pages, "births and deaths can only be used on centennials, etc." Zzyzx11 (Talk) 07:12, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Terra Mariana
editSourcing concerns. Entirely unsourced paragraphs, and specific claims of dates and key facts are unreferenced. The lede/intro of the article is a total of seven paragraphs long, in violation of WP:LEAD which states it should be no more than four paragraphs. This article requires much cleanup. Tagged as such. -- Cirt (talk) 10:21, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
