[Untitled][edit]

I have made some year layout proposals which would affect a significant proportion of the year pages: an example of proposed style is 1850. It is detailed on my talk page.

If no-one flags where I have put the discussion on my talk page that they object in a month I will start making everything consistent. It may take some time... --BozMo 12:29, 7 May 2004 (UTC)(talk)[reply]

Removed text:

* March 18 - At the Old Bailey in London, Christian Bowman (alis Murphy) becomes the last woman to be burned to death (legally) in England. Her crime was counterfeiting silver coins.

Sep. 24 Judiciary Act[edit]

I've changed this description, because the Judiciary Act of 1789 did NOT establish the Supreme Court - the Constitution did. The Act established the lower federal courts and the number of Supreme Court Justices, but not the office.

'French Revolution the beginning of the modern era'?[edit]

The current article states that the French Revolution 'is often considered the beginning of the modern era.' This gives considerable weight both to violence and to a questionable, tendentious opinion, for, when one examines even just the year under discussion, it becomes clear that said bloody episode was but part of a whole era of global transformation, much of which precedes it in time if not in bloodshed. Also, I'm not sure that the sentence in question is grammatical, even if it were correct: shouldn't it be 'which,' not 'what'? (=> French person's English?).

FRENCH REVOLUTION MENCION JUST REMOVED[edit]

WE CANT PUT A NOTE IN THE BEGINNING OF EVERY YEAR THAT HAD A NOTABLE HISTORIC EVENT. IF WE DID SO WE WOULD HAVE TO ADD A NOTE IN 1939,BECAUSE OF THE BEGGINING OF WWII. OR 1776 FOR THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE OF THE UNITED STATES. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.5.80.126 (talk) 17:08, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
