Sure. Especially with 2 weak items currently on the template, waiting to be displaced. --PFHLai 19:34, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

June 28

[edit]

It says be bold and update the page yourself but when I tried, it was protected. Please update for 40th anniversary of the Stonewall riots tomorrow:

1969 – Gays and lesbians fighting back against persecution, the Stonewall riots begin at the Stonewall Inn in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of New York City.

Thanks. - ALLSTRecho wuz here 20:40, 27 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is currently protected since it is about to go on to the main page.
In any case, the Stonewall riots article has been selected as the Main Page featured article for June 28, 2009. An event is generally not posted on OTD if it is also the subject of this year's scheduled featured article, especially when the first sentence in the Main Page TFA caption essentially repeats what would have been posted on OTD.

Proposal

[edit]

I propose adding Case Blue to this day, as it bears historically significance and has been improved during the last months to be somehow representable. Its the Nazi German 1942 strategic summer offensive aimed at the caucasian oilfields, which failed later at Stalingrad. Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria also had been vastly improved by someone, so you may should mark this article as bold instead of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand article.

I created today Constitution Day (Ukraine) (a public holiday (in Ukraine)); may it please you to include it in this in this Template? — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 00:58, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, the article is only a stub, and according to the rules, we cannot include it. howcheng {chat} 10:47, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bloodstained uniform

[edit]

Please let's not be so ghoulish as to use this image, especially on the main page. Unnecessary sensationalism when photos of the actual people are so readily available. Awien (talk) 23:18, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Come on, admins. I'm talking about the image accompanying the item on the 1914 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, scheduled to run on Sunday. Surely there's someone who sees how morbidly sensationalising this is. Please pull it. Awien (talk) 12:53, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't gotten around to doing the updates for this year yet. howcheng {chat} 15:28, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal

[edit]

@Howcheng: Is it possible to nominate the Hafte Tir bombing for 2019 OTD? It was on the main page in 2013 for last time. Regards! Saff V. (talk) 09:27, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Saff V.: Looks like the discussion is still ongoing, as the orange maintenance tags have not yet been removed. Regardless, we have a 1989 item that gets priority this year, so even if this were eligible, it wouldn't be included. howcheng {chat} 16:53, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

2024 notes

[edit]

The Stonewall riots FA last appeared in this page in 2019, and 2014 before that. We are at another five year anniversary, so its an apt one for inclusion (currently in Eligible). However, this year it may also appear on DYK with an image, so another image should be used. CMD (talk) 05:19, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
