Talk:1910

Layout

hola. I can see the point of putting events first, but this date articles have been going back and forth on that for a long time already. Please check some of the other dates first. I think we should strive for consistency more than anything. Danny

OK, so what is the consensus? I am happy to go with one or the other - there is plenty of other work to do in the meantime :)

I wonder if there is a consensus. I've just seen them go back and forth so many times already. Hey, I even tried it myself once (with events first, btw). We should come up with some consensus, then remember, there are about 3,000 date pages if not more ... Danny

Yeah, but the majority of them are of the form:

Births:

Deaths:

Events:

- quite easy to remove :)

How do we reach consensus?

Worse is the year in topic layout which on this page is one of three versions. I seek opinions before making them all the same; see comment on my talk page BozMo(talk)

World's youngest parents

I didn't find any mention of the world's youngest parents in the article. Maybe I missed it, but if it isn't in there, somebody should probably add it.

That type of thing is not important enough for main year articles. Jim Michael (talk) 10:53, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

First Zeppelin flight

Sorry to nitpick, but I noticed that for June 22 we have recorded the first Zeppelin flight. There is significant amounts of conflicting data in the actual Zeppelin page. It says the first flight was on July 2, 1900. The closest date to the one listed here is in the "Pre World War I" section and states;

"Prior to World War I, a total of 21 Zeppelin airships (LZ5 to LZ 25) were manufactured. In 1909, LZ6 became the first Zeppelin used for commercial passenger transport. The world's first airline, the newly founded DELAG, bought seven LZ6s by 1914. The airships were given names in addition to their production numbers, three of which are LZ8 Deutschland II (1911), LZ11 Viktoria Luise (1912), and LZ17 Sachsen (1913). Seven of these twenty-seven ships were destroyed in accidents, mostly while being transferred into their halls. There were no casualties. One of them was LZ7 Deutschland which started for its maiden voyage on June 19th 1910. On June 28th it began a pleasure trip to make Zeppelins more popular. Among other aboard were 19 journalists, two of which were reporters of well known British newspapers. LZ7 crashed in bad weather at Mount Limberg near Bad Iburg in Lower Saxony. Nobody was injured.[8]"

I would like to know which one is correct as it pertains to research I'm currently doing. Thank you! Beekone 13:08, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

1910 Rogers Pass avalanche

I don't see any mention of the Rogers Pass slide, which reportedly buried a CNR snow-clearing crew. TREKphiler ^{hit me ♠} 13:56, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

As with many events currently in this article it is not internationally significant. It belongs in 1910 in the United States. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 20:06, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Not unless Rogers Pass is in Montana, now... ;) But I can look under Canada. Thx. TREKphiler ^{hit me ♠} 22:05, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorry about the misidentification, I should have checked rather than assumed! DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 01:41, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

No worries, most Americans think Canada is the 51st state anyhow. ;p TREKphiler ^{hit me ♠} 15:14, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Cleanup

I have just removed all those entries which are not sufficiently notable for inclusion on this (international) page and which have their own, more appropriate, Year in Country or Timeline articles. There are a few others remaining which do not belong here but there is nowhere I could find to move them to so I've left them here for now. I'll do the same with the Births and Deaths shortly. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 00:00, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

I've removed all Births and Deaths that are not sufficiently notable for an international Year article, provided there was an appropriate Year in Country article to move them to. There are many more that should not be here but until there is somewhere to move them they should be left here. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 09:28, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

Missing

On October 1, 1910, the L.A. Times Building in Los Angeles, CA was destroyed by a series of bombs. This incident had to do with labor troubles and anarchy. We would probably call this terrorism today. This is missing from the 1910 page. Anyone out there want to research this and add it to the page? L. Thomas W. (talk) 14:42, 23 January 2010 (UTC) L. Thomas W.

If it is insufficiently notable to not yet have its own article then it is unlikely to be sufficiently notable for inclusion in this article. Possibly it could be mentioned in 1910 in the United States. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 22:02, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Edvard Kardelj

In the Deaths section of Year articles it is only appropriate to mention what the individual is internationally notable for. Kardelj's article makes no mention of him being a publicist other than in the lede. He can therefore hardly be considered internationally notable as a publicist. The only references to him as an economist are that, as a political leader, he made changes to his country's economic direction. This is country specific, not internationally notable. In fact, he is not even included in Category:Economists. As such references to him as a publicist and/or economist are not justified in this article. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 21:37, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

They are indeed justified. The lack of information on the life of Edvard Kardelj on English Wikipedia does not justify not calling him an economist and a publicist in this article. It serves no purpose and limits availability of information to readers. Kardelj invented socialist self-management and was the first to put it into practice. His ideas are among the most revolutionary of the 20th century. --Rastko Pocesta (talk) 06:22, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Inclusion of information relevant to a person in the deaths section of an English wiki Year article is based solely on the content of that person's English wiki article. If that information is incomplete then it should be updated. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 06:28, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

The lead paragraph of his article calls him an economist and a publicist. University of Ljubljana was named after him. He is indeed a very notable person and I fail to understand your problem with calling Kardelj an economist and a publicist. You are limiting availability of information to readers. --Rastko Pocesta (talk) 02:43, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

And you seem to fail to understand that Year articles are for internationally notable entries. In the Deaths section this means that the person must be internationally notable and the description includes (only) what they are internatinally notable for. There is no evidence (in his article) that indicate that Kardelj was an internationally notable economist or publicist. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 02:47, 6 August 2011 (UTC)ž

He is more notable as an economist than as a partisan. I think that having university named after you means you are notable enough. I don't see why are you making such a big deal of this. --Rastko Pocesta (talk) 06:32, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
