== Vanity entry? ==
Who is 'Paige "Pirate" Davis, skater, sexy'? No article on Wikipedia (not even a stub) and nothing on Google. Laura Kahili does show up on Google, but is arguably not significant enough for Wikipedia. [[User:Pseudomonas|Pseudomonas]] 14:08, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
== Most Common Birthday in the US ==
According to the [[Birthday#Trivia|Birthday]] article, October 5 is the most common birthday in the United States. Might this be worth mentioning in the October 5 article? If so, where? [[User:Brent Butler|Brent]] 15:41, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
== I suggest putting death date immediately after name ==
In Wikipedia 'On this day' pages, in the birthdays section, the death date is always put at the end of the entry line, but at times this can cause confusion. In cases such as "1717 Marie-Anne de Mailly-Nesle duchess de ChâteaurouxFrench mistress of King Louis XV of France (d. 1744)" it looks like Louis died in 1744, not Marie-Anne. To obviate this ambiguity, I suggest that in all entries the death year appear immediately after the person's name, eg "1717 Marie-Anne de Mailly-Nesle duchess de Châteauroux (d. 1744), French mistress of King Louis XV of France". It's simply a matter of correct grammar. [[User:Alpheus|Alpheus]] 03:55, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
:The [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Days of the year|project]] page would probably be the best place to ask about the overall formatting of these pages. -- [[User:Jim Douglas|Jim Douglas]] [[User talk:Jim Douglas|<sup style="color:green;">(talk)</sup>]] [[Special:Contributions/Jim Douglas|<sub style="color:gray;">(contribs)</sub>]] 04:02, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
== Dali Lama ==
According to other sites, including the one for the History Channel, the Dali Lama recieved the Nobel Peace Prize on October 5th 1989, why hasn't anyone added this?<small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/71.80.186.150|71.80.186.150]] ([[User talk:71.80.186.150|talk]]) 05:10, 21 May 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP -->
== Halloween? ==
Can anyone tell me why this article lists October 5th as [[Halloween]]? Is it the original date? Halloween's entry doesn't mention anything. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/163.178.17.124|163.178.17.124]] ([[User talk:163.178.17.124|talk]]) 14:55, 23 June 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:I have no idea why that was in there, and don't think Oct. 5th has anything to do with its history. And if it does, then an unexplained, unsourced "Halloween" certainly isn't going to cut it. So...removed. [[User:Cosmic Latte|Cosmic Latte]] ([[User talk:Cosmic Latte|talk]]) 15:01, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
== Mercedes Sosa==
Mercedes Sosa's death was added to both October 4th and October 5th pages. Since her Wikipedia page states her death was on the 4th, I have deleted her entry on the 5th. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/152.157.95.228|152.157.95.228]] ([[User talk:152.157.95.228|talk]]) 18:22, 5 October 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
