==Baseball players==
| algo = old(365d)
I see that the info I put in earlier about Hall of Fame eligibility was taken out. '''Please note''' that I wrote that the voting is by the [[Veterans Committee]] and not the [[BBWAA]]. The procedure for HoF membership is voting by the BBWAA after five years' retirement and then ''"If a player fails to be elected by the BBWAA within 20 years of their retirement from active play, he may be selected by the Veterans Committee, which now votes every two years."'' All of the players I listed fell off the BBWAA ballot in 2004, and thus, according to current HoF rules, can get in 20 years after their retirement. '''Next time please read and process the whole of the material you think is incorrect before removing it.''' Thanks.

Pretty sure the movie is set in 2017, but not sure about the book.

Sorry, edit comment was cut short. There is no source given for MGA2 being set in 2019. The only time reference given in the game is that Snake appeared in the Serena Republic three years prior to the main event in the story, which was not the events of the first game (2016). The article therefore assumed that no time had passed in between the original Snake's body being recovered on Lobito Island (after end of first game), Snake's clone being created, the clone's participation in the Praulia Massacre, the clone's loss of memory, and THEN the clone being discovered in the Serena Republic, three years before the second game. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/87.112.3.127|87.112.3.127]] ([[User talk:87.112.3.127|talk]]) 20:22, 12 October 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== 2019 being described as a best year in human history. ==
==Blade Runner==


For a reason, most of the news media outlets describe 2019 as a "best year in human history." But there are other good years described and nominated by other media outlets such as 2015, 1994, 2007, and especially 1980. Can anyone please explain why those editors add it as the best year in history in one article, while adding the year 2020 as the worst for anyone to be alive. I think that there is a need for a consensus to be established. Give me examples.

== Semi-protected edit request on 20 February 2023 ==
Various entries like:

* The child of [[Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex]] and [[Meghan, Duchess of Sussex]] will be born.

Have been added. I didn't revert the last time, but am now doing so, because it would not be a notable event if the child is not born live. Seems more speculative than construction project completion years.

== Collage depreciation ==
:Im beginning to repeat myself, dumping the talk page with names and then links will not help. You need to name each challenged individual and why you think they are noteworthy enough for enclosure. Others will not do the work for you. So one at a time list the names that you should be added and others will see if they should be included. And remember that is list is not the place to list local politicians and such like as they are listed in [[Deaths in 2019]] and "2019 in "foo country" articles.

I would also like to suggest changing the date format of this article to the DMY format (e.g. 6 June 2020 as opposed to June 6, 2020). The DMY format seems more international and more suitable for a "global" article like. Also DMY simply makes more sense as it goes from smallest to highest.


At the village pump, I've presented a proposal to establish a standard to use DMY in general for all articles about "generic" years. The discussion got kind of messy however, and I'll propaly restart it at some point. In the meantime, I would like it to create consensus about changing it for specifically this and all other nine articles about the 2010s--[[User:Marginataen|Marginataen]] ([[User talk:Marginataen|talk]]) 16:11, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

== US Copyright law change ==

{{ping|Arthur Rubin}} reverted my removal of the January 1 event involving a change in US copyright law. Setting aside that there is no reference for it, it's not an event that belongs here. Media coverage has been minimal and appears to have been largely limited to the US. It is also the very definition of a US-specific event, given that it—by definition—only applies in the United States. If we're living in a world governed by [[talk:2015/Archive 2#Same-sex_marriage_in_the_US|this RFC]], I can't understand why we would include this.

:It is not precisely US-law-specific, as some countries use US law for US copyrightable materials if coverage is longer than their own law. It is US-specific, in the sense that it applies to materials in the US or copyrighted in the US. As it's the first material to fall out of copyright in 20 (or 30) years, it seems relevant.

On January 15th, UK parliament rejected the Brexit deal which was a widely covered news event all over the world.

==Notable Deaths==
I've read a lot of obituaries and International news articles on the names of Mason Lowe, Aloysius Pang, and Wade Wilson.

I know there are a lot on Aloysius Pang, and he died in a plane crash while he in the middle of training exercise for the armed forces and most plane crashes are worldwide, here are some of the locations:

US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, India, Thailand, Singapore

[[User:Matt Campbell|Matt Campbell]] ([[User talk:Matt Campbell|talk]]) 17:05, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

:* Matt, it's been explained to you more than once that Mason Lowe isn't sufficiently notable for this page - indeed, this is a person who ''didn't even have a Wikipedia article'' before his death. There are some international stories about him - but they're all about the unusual manner of his death; there's practically ''nothing'' on him before that. He belongs in the 2019 US page, but not here. I can see one or two non-US articles about Wilson, but very few. I am not as familiar with Asian acting notability but Pang, again, appears to have little coverage outside Singapore. I'm willing to be persuaded otherwise about this one, though. [[User_talk:Black Kite|Black Kite (talk)]] 18:01, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

There are 2 non-US articles on Wilson that I found from Canada and Japan, there might be more just not able to find them. How many non-US articles meet the requirement? Are you saying your only persuaded by Pang? Pang has articles from the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, India. A lot of articles I found on him appear to be international. [[User:Matt Campbell|Matt Campbell]] ([[User talk:Matt Campbell|talk]]) 19:59, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

Also on Wilson I forgot to mention earlier that I found an article him from Portugal, Mexico, Spain and probably Cuba. Because there were articles on him written in Spanish. [[User:Matt Campbell|Matt Campbell]] ([[User talk:Matt Campbell|talk]]) 21:02, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
* Can you drop the links to those stories in here, then? I did look at Wilson the first time you mentioned him (and Pang) and couldn't find a lot, but there might have been more since then. You can put the links in by enclosing them in square brackets, i.e. <nowiki>[</nowiki>www.website.com<nowiki>]</nowiki> Thanks, [[User_talk:Black Kite|Black Kite (talk)]] 21:13, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

Ok. Sounds good. First lets start with Aloysius Pang. I found articles from US, Australia, New Zealand, Myanmar, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Canada, China, UK.

Is it time to consider ditching the deaths section and providing a link to [[Deaths in 2019]], anything really big would qualify as an event but this would be rare.

Are you saying that we have to add source from now on? [[User:Matt Campbell|Matt Campbell]] ([[User talk:Matt Campbell|talk]]) 00:18, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

There are clearly too many. If you look at January, there are ''ninety'' deaths listed there. Go back a decade and look at [[2009]], and there are just '''fifteen'''. I suspect the latter number should be the marker we're looking at. First of all, we really need to strip out anyone whose death (or life) was not widely covered internationally. I'll go through that month later and produce a list, and then everyone can see what they think. [[User_talk:Black Kite|Black Kite (talk)]] 10:46, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

That's a good idea, I just remembered what you told me before. You said to "check the coverage of the life of the person, not just their death".

== Adding names ==
Due to some of the recent editing conflicts, I think I might best that nobody adds any names unless they can find articles from countries, or without permission from the admins. Also some might not need any depending the coverage of the person. [[User:Matt Campbell|Matt Campbell]] ([[User talk:Matt Campbell|talk]]) 01:26, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

==Removing names==
In view of recent discussions with [[User:Black Kite]], [[User:MilborneOne]] and [[User:Matt Campbell]], I've been bold and removed a number of Brits from the Deaths section because they were really not that famous in the UK. Anyone who disagrees can add them back but I would suggest you try and make a good case:

[[User:Deb|Deb]] ([[User talk:Deb|talk]]) 15:45, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Ok That's a good idea.

If anyone wants to add them back, discuss it with an admin or you can discuss it on here with others. But remember to include articles from other countries in order to prove that they should be on here.

Warning: If anyone add's any of these name's back without talk page consensus, or without approval from an admin then the edit will probably get reverted.

If anyone manages to find any articles from other countries on any of these people then send them to me on my talk page and I can take a look at them and see if they are useful or not. [[User:Matt Campbell|Matt Campbell]] ([[User talk:Matt Campbell|talk]]) 18:21, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

There was of course a brief spat of news stories about his death because it was of course covered by social media and tabloid sources. If you look at his article, 90% of it is about his (unremarkable) football career followed by three lines saying he appeared in a couple of reality shows.

:::I knew of Eric Haydock quite firmly for years before he died, and I was and only is a casual Hollies fan. He was around during the first few years - which coincided with the peak years of the British Invasion - and left the band around the time Bus Stop came out. As far as I know, he was pretty well regarded as a bassist, and only left due to a management dispute. He certainly wouldn't have been inducted into the RRHOF for no reason - especially since the organisation has had a pretty notorious track record of excluding key band members, such as Bruce Johnston of The Beach Boys and Bob Welch of Fleetwood Mac --[[User:Thescrubbythug|Thescrubbythug]] ([[User talk:Thescrubbythug|talk]]) 14:52, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
::::I'd never heard of Bob Welch either - possibly because his solo career seems to have been mainly in the US.

== Albert Finney ==

I reiterate this question I posed to {{Ping|Arthur Rubin}} on his talk page but I’m also looking for other input. I added [[Albert Finney]]’s image into the article but he was removed, with AR saying he was “a bad choice”. I don’t understand that reasoning. Finney is world renowned, 4-time Oscar nominee in his field. It’d be fair to say he was more notable than someone like [[Kristoff St. John]], but I don’t wanna get into comparing a deceased persons notoriety. Anyway just looking for a concrete reason. [[User:Rusted AutoParts|<span style="font-family:Rockwell; color:red"><i>Rusted AutoParts</i></span>]] 17:45, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

:We dont really have a criteria for images other than not to include to many they overwhelm the article. That said Finney would be a reasonable choice to be added, he is well known and not American (to balance the usual bias).

== Dick Dale image ==

I think Dick Dale deserves to have his image put up given his iconic status & influence - he was known as the "King of the Surf Guitar" and was the most famous performer in the surf music genre besides The Beach Boys. His songs such as Miserlou and Let's Go Trippin' remain enduringly popular to this day, and his work as a guitarist has influenced generations that came after him - such as Jimi Hendrix and The Ramones --[[User:Thescrubbythug|Thescrubbythug]] ([[User talk:Thescrubbythug|talk]]) 10:58, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
:Which other American or Brit would you suggest removing? [[User:Deb|Deb]] ([[User talk:Deb|talk]]) 13:15, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
::Also, do you have a decent image of Dick Dale? The ones in his article are pretty poor. [[User:Deb|Deb]] ([[User talk:Deb|talk]]) 13:19, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
:I would suggest removing Manohar Parrikar, who seems to be a political figure that would be considered very obscure outside of India. If not him and somebody who must be British or American, then Charlie Whiting. As for image, I'd agree that the ones used on his page really is far from ideal.... this seems to be the best one from WikiCommons - and is really no worse than the Keith Flint photo: File:Dick Dale, Viva Las Vegas, 2013-03-30 IMG 8131 (8605847986).jpg --[[User:Thescrubbythug|Thescrubbythug]] ([[User talk:Thescrubbythug|talk]]) 14:45, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

==Some proposed removals==
I propose to remove the following from the Deaths section:
*[[Kinryū Arimoto]] - voice actor who doesn't seem to have done much outside dubbing foreign films (removed)
*[[Carmen Argenziano]] - appears to have been a very minor actor; how well known by name, either in or outside the US? (removed)
*[[Ricardo Boechat]] - notability seems mainly to do with the manner of his death. (removed)
*[[Carmen Duncan]] - did one or two soap roles, but doesn't seem well-known outside Australia (removed)
*[[Yechiel Eckstein]] - well known within the US Jewish community, but outside? (removed)
*[[Richard Erdman]] - appears to have been a very minor actor; would Americans even recognise him? (removed)
*[[Desmond Ford]] - apparently notorious within the Seventh Day Adventist church, but was he known outside it? (removed)
*[[Olli Lindholm]] - had a single number 1 hit in Finland with his band; probably well-known in Scandinavia but not internationally. (removed)
*[[Franco Macri]] - his notability appears to rest mainly on being the father of the Argentine president. (removed)
*[[Carmine Persico]] - okay, a major figure within the gangster world, but was he famous outside it? (removed)
*[[Clive Swift]] - really only well-known for one role in a sitcom (removed)
*[[Vinny Vella]] - another minor actor; how well known was he in the US? (removed)

I'd be happy to discuss any of these with other contributors who know more about them. [[User:Deb|Deb]] ([[User talk:Deb|talk]]) 10:57, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

The page history shows that this was amended after its addition to the page because of doubts over the number of people attending, in favour of an alternative estimate.

==Further proposed removals==
Although we seem to be fighting a losing battle in trying to get the endless lists of births and deaths down to a manageable size, more nonentities are being added daily.
I'm now proposing removal of the following. Comments welcome:
*[[Stewart Adams (chemist)]], chemist who ''helped'' develop Ibuprofen (removed)
*[[Fatima Ali]], chef known mainly for appearances on reality TV shows (removed)
*[[Alix, Princess of Ligne]], Luxembourg royal who didn't really do anything (removed)
*[[Kim Bok-dong]], article tagged for COI (removed)
*[[Rosemarie Bowe]], American actress apparently best known for who she was married to (removed)
*[[Fernando Clavijo]], soccer player and coach (removed)
*[[John Dingell]], US politician, whose notability rests on being long-serving (removed)
*[[Andrew Fairlie]], chef - little known in the UK and unknown outside it (removed)
*[[Kevin Fret]], little-known Puerto Rican musician. Apparently his only claim to fame is being "the first openly gay Latin trap artist" (removed)
*[[Rocky Lockridge]], US boxer mainly known for knocking out another US boxer I've never heard of (removed)
*[[Peter Magowan]], businessman unknown outside the US (removed)
*[[John Otho Marsh Jr.]], US politician and academic - if we include everyone who's held a government post, we could fill the deaths list with those alone
*[[Ron W. Miller]], businessman mainly known for being Disney's son-in-law (removed)
*[[Hidekichi Miyazaki]], Japanese athlete known only for competing in a sporting event for people aged over 100 (removed)
*[[Ndaye Mulamba]], Congolese footballer, known mainly for being the subject of an assassination attempt - if we include him, it would only be for global balance (removed)
*[[Mel Tomlinson]], dancer and choreographer, not widely known outside those circles (removed)
*[[Andrzej Wieckowski]], US academic with no apparent claim to international fame (removed)
*[[Sergei Yursky]], Russian actor with little international recognition (removed)

In fact, the now-historical [[Wikipedia:Recent years]] project requirements weren't even guidelines, they were an essay. But that "project" was deprecated a year or two ago, and along with it these so-called inclusion criteria. It's probably better to stop referring out to an archaic essay. And I have never seen any requirements on the referencing within the target articles.

== All the links by the recently deceased ==

:If you're asking why there are inline citations for the entries in April, it's because of [[Wikipedia:Verifiability#Responsibility_for_providing_citations|this guideline]] and there's no specific exclusion for Year articles.

== [[Silver King (wrestler)]] ==

I'm convinced that, in a rational world, he shouldn't have a Wikipedia article.

We should add her into the page since she was a public known figure, she was a former WWE Diva, she appeared on Survivor, she appeared on some music videos, she posed for Playboy, we should really add her in here, do we all agree?

:Again, in a rational world, she wouldn't be notable. And, although appearing on Survivor and in music videos are NOT reasons for inclusion, I suppose she should have a listing.

*[[Analía Gadé]] - appeared in a lot of Argentine films but no international notability (removed)
*[[Sean McCann (actor)]] - little international notability (removed)
*[[Glauco Sansovini]] - important in San Marino, but the equivalent of a local politician in most countries (removed)

How is the head of state of a country [[San Marino]], "the equivalent of a local politician in most countries"? These removals based on one or two peoples opinion who seem to have no knowledge of the things they remove are not a good direction. A professional wrestler is not a sumo wrestler, not all Asian wrestlers are Sumo wrestlers. Also if a "sumo" wrestler who was one of the biggest champions in his country gets to be dismissed as "only notable because of his death" because noone here understands japanese culture. then why are people like [[Bart Starr]] listed? definition of no international notability. especially if a head of state gets dismissed like that too. [[User:GuzzyG|GuzzyG]] ([[User talk:GuzzyG|talk]]) 06:41, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
:It's about a lot of things: ''international'' notability, cultural balance (far more Americans have been removed than Japanese people), gender balance, recentism, etc. Oh, and I agree Bart Starr shouldn't be listed but I was outvoted on that one; that's what they call consensus and that's how wikipedia works.[[User:Deb|Deb]] ([[User talk:Deb|talk]]) 08:41, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
::No, that's the failure of your system in effect, that the head of state of countries and celebrities in other, non-western countries are being outvoted by American and European people, while American celebrities who fail exactly the same requirement are voted in. [[Asashōryū Akinori]] wouldn't pass the "international notability" standard voted on by 2-5 people, yet Bart Starr does, that's consensus maybe, but that just goes to show that this consensus will never achieve a truly diverse goal. Because no group of people except maybe 300 names in history, have truly international household name recognition. By your method, no sumo wrestler will qualify for not being "international enough", in your eyes [[Sadaharu Oh]] would not either, by denying people highly significant in one country like Japan a listing because American/European people can't recognize them, it says alot about your method and how it will ultimately fail in making this list diverse as Western figures dominate a primarily western news industry which influences a false sense of importance. [[Ma Long (table tennis)|Ma Long]] and [[Lin Dan]] wouldn't make the list under your (new, undiscussed in a wide-ranging RFC) method, but [[Yao Ming]] would, which means you're forcing Asian people to be seen through Western culture and a Western definition of "recognition" and that's a unfair barrier to anyone not in Europe/America/Oceania, especially when you just outright dismissed this figure as only known because he died and stereotyped his field.

:::I agree, it's a tricky situation that requires balance, although i do think we should have a lower standard for people and occupations from other regions in the world. For example if someone is a household name in China or India, they're going to be more known then someone who is a household name in the US, Australia and Europe combined and so being known internationally should not be as important for them.

{{od}} As a fan of professional wrestling, I'm a bit surprised that [[Atsushi Aoki]] (a '''professional wrestler''', not sumo), is removed. Aoki was one of the most populaur wrestlers in Japanese wrestling (which has a big fanbase in Western countries), for many years. To say that he's only known because of how he died is very insulting. He should be re-listed. [[User:The Optimistic One|The Optimistic One]] ([[User talk:The Optimistic One|talk]]) 19:08, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

::::Yeah, i am one of those "four" and i am someone who dedicates 24/7 (not just for wikipedia, my own independent project) to checking google ngrams, google trends, google scholar results, worldcat results, listings in other biographical dictionaries/encyclopedias, wikipedias own pageviews and edits and various other statistics and compiles them to find people from every field representing a diverse bunch.

::::::No, it's not my opinion - i don't have a opinion on any of these subjects, i purely go off of the research and statistics.

I am not fussed by such open dismissal, as it's led me to pursue a completely different project, that will be independent of Wikipedia and for that i am blessed (and have stopped working on the level 5 list). But that doesn't mean that the level 5 list is wrong, it just covers fields that a traditional encyclopedia would not in a way, but if the point of the list is to find articles that would be good to have a featured article on then yes, i would think the coverage of everything would be a good thing. I just have to refute the image that the list has accrued of it being a bunch of editors favorite people or something, actual time and effort has went into it, it's just (me being the person with the most edits on the list) i strongly believe on such a list, as many things as possible deserve representation, so say instead of 150 soccer people, we have 110 and 50 niche sports people.

There was an importance tag added by him, so I’ll explain why I think he’s notable.

:::On the point of [[João Gilberto]], I already made my case in favour of him. It's true that his primary base of fame was Latin America, however his influence and importance in both jazz and especially bossa nova and its development made him an iconic figure internationally among the music community, and warrants the inclusion of his photo.

This applies to both Boyce and to a lesser extent [[Ross Perot]], whose most notable achievement was to win almost 20% of the vote as an independent in the [[1992 United States presidential election]]. [[Cameron Boyce]] is arguably less well-known internationally than say, [[Freddie Starr]] or [[Freddie Jones]] - both of whom were major celebrities within the British Isles - yet the decision has been made to not include either of them, as {{ping|Deb}} can explain. Somebody who has made it to the office of President or any equivalent which marks the highest office of power of any major state - as [[Fernando de la Rúa]] achieved - deserve to be prioritised.

:: @[[User talk:Thescrubbythug]] [[Cameron Boyce]] is known internationally based on his philanthropic and non-governmental organizational work. He is internationally known. That being said I 100% agree with you that the 2019 death list and pictures shouldn't be American-centric, but that isn't the criticism people are basing their disagreement on Cameron Boyce being included on the list on, they're basing it on that he's 'not important', even though he is known outside of North America. He's quite a bit more internationally recognized than [[Freddie Starr]] or [[Freddie Jones]]. -[[User:Adler1997]] <!--Template:Undated--><small class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|undated]] comment added 03:06, 14 July 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

We are not just US-centric, we are highly focused on the English-speaking world and in particular on mass media. Thus (just for example) football, which has a strong media presence internationally, gets far more attention than any other sport. An English Premier League club footballer (of which there are about 300) gets more attention than someone who has broken a world record in athletics. Likewise, a minor actor like Cameron Boyce can get as much attention as someone who has won several Oscars. Add recentism to this and you multiply the problem. If we continue to ignore these issues, we just make the English Wikipedia less representative of the worldwide readership. So I personally say no to the idea of including Boyce, realising that I will probably be outvoted. [[User:Deb|Deb]] ([[User talk:Deb|talk]]) 07:07, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

::You're missing my point. English-speaking "celebrities" get more worldwide exposure ''because'' they are English-speaking and their programmes are syndicated in other countries (sometimes dubbed). That doesn't make them of greater worldwide significance. I'd put money on Boyce being virtually unknown outside the 10-30 age group, in any country.

::: I'd agree here. I suspect a lot of the coverage of his death was exactly that - because it was a story in itself, a 20-year-old dying. More useful is to look at the coverage he was getting ''before'' his death - and I'm not seeing very much at all outside listings and press releases; there's the odd story about him, mostly on entertainment websites and/or magazines, and the vast majority of that ''is'' exclusively US-based, so I'm not convinced he rises to the level of an entry on the main year page.

the reason is that these two entries specifically are the main ones that to a large degree parallel the scope and content for this entry; i.e. both of these two articles are timeline articles for 2019, which would also encompass newsworthy events and items that might be considered of general significance.

this is in contrast with other timeline articles for 2019 whose scope and content would not be considered to be primarily focused upon events of world significance; for example, I would not seek to add [[2019 in radio]], [[2019 in art]], [[2019 in sports]], etc etc. --[[User:Sm8900|Sm8900]] ([[User talk:Sm8900|talk]]) 15:25, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

== Federal Chancellors of Switzerland ==

Two former [[Chancellor of Switzerland|Federal Chancellors]] of Switzerland have passed away in August - [[Annemarie Huber-Hotz]] and [[Walter Buser]]. Interestingly, somebody has questioned the importance of including Buser on the death list, while leaving Huber-Hotz in the clear. The justification made in Buser's case (and if this applies to Buser, it'll also automatically apply to Huber-Hotz) is that the office of Federal Chancellor is not a particularly notable office. While I'm no expert on the nuances of Swiss politics and the Swiss political system, it is quite clear that the Federal Chancellor is '''not''' at all any equivalent to that of the [[Chancellor of Germany]] or [[Chancellor of Austria|Austria]] - or indeed that of the [[Chancellor of the Exchequer]] in the UK. What does everyone think - should Huber-Hotz and Buser remain on the main 2019 death list?

On a slightly different note, somebody has been trying to question the importance of including [[Tim Fischer]] as well - to the point where until now they were also trying to obscure the fact that he was [[Deputy Prime Minister of Australia]]. In my view there's no question that Fischer should stay. The office of Deputy Prime Minister is the second-most senior role in the Australian Government; it performs the role of Acting Prime Minister when the PM is overseas or incapacitated and in Fischer's case is also the head of the [[National Party of Australia|National Party]], one of the major governing parties of Australian politics. I don't think an image is warranted, but surely given that nobody would question including a U.S. Vice President or even (as seen with the July section) an independent U.S. Presidential candidate such as [[Ross Perot]], Fischer deserves his place on the main death list. --[[User:Thescrubbythug|Thescrubbythug]] ([[User talk:Thescrubbythug|talk]]) 17:01, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

:Tim Fischer doesnt really qualify to be here, hardly known outside of Australia and didnt actually hold any of the top offices like a president or prime minister, the same would seem to apply the the swiss chaps.

::I think you're correct. [[User:Deb|Deb]] ([[User talk:Deb|talk]]) 19:21, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
:::The office of Deputy Prime Minister is considered one of the top offices, and I again make the argument that if U.S. Vice Presidents and third party candidates can qualify, so should Australian Deputy Prime Ministers - particularly one whose achievements include helping implement substantial gun control in the aftermath of Port Arthur, something which has gained significant international nobility. As for the Swiss Chancellors, yes I’d probably lean towards removing them as from what I can gather their main role seems to be that of a sort-of head of staff rather than one of the top offices. Also on the topic of importance, [[Sushma Swaraj]] not only is listed, but also currently has a photo up - yet her most senior position has been Indian foreign minister. --[[User:Thescrubbythug|Thescrubbythug]] ([[User talk:Thescrubbythug|talk]]) 02:18, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
::::Jesucrist. Tim Fischer was only Deputy Prime Minister of Australia. These lists put people with a high national relevance or international importance, being also one of the requirements that has at least 9 articles in different languages. Several Vice Presidents have passed away this year and not all of them are enlisted. While US Vicepresident is the second senior office of the most powerful country in the world, Australian DPM is the 4th senior office (Queen, Governor General, PM and DPM). As about Sushma Swaraj, she had been one of the most influential and important women politician in India and in Asia, not just a simple Minister of Foreign Affairs. Her political career is absolutely notorious. I also think that it's necessary a debate about what we can do with Chancellors of Switzerland.~[[User:Alsoriano97|Alsoriano97]] ([[User talk:Alsoriano97|talk]]) 13:18, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
:::::”Second most senior office of the most powerful country in the world” That’s just blatant US bias right there, which is something we must ensure to avoid on this sort of page. Furthermore it completely fails to address my additional point regarding third party candidates such as [[Ross Perot]] being included. Dismissing the position of Deputy Prime Minister as merely the fourth most important (and referring to the Queen as the most important) indicates a complete lack of understanding of the Australian political system and how it works. In practice, the Deputy Prime Minister is the second most senior position of the Government and the Ministry, and if the Prime Minister is overseas, incapacitated or dead, the Deputy takes the role of Acting Prime Minister. It’s still more senior than a Minister of Foreign Affairs - though sometimes a Deputy Prime Minister may also choose to additionally take up that role. I’m curious to hear what others have to say regarding [[Sushma Swaraj]]. [[User:Thescrubbythug|Thescrubbythug]] ([[User talk:Thescrubbythug|talk]]) 16:24, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

The article describes 2019 as the "2019th year of the Common Era (CE), the 19th year of the 3rd millennium, and the 19th year of the 21st century."

Surely the "19"s here should be "20"s? After all, the year 0 CE would be the 1st year of the Common Era. Likewise, 2000 would be the 1st year in the 3rd millenium and the the 21st century, so 2019 would be the 20th. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Scarrow Man|Scarrow Man]] ([[User talk:Scarrow Man#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Scarrow Man|contribs]]) 22:37, 6 October 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
*No, 0 CE does not exist. CE was adopted to replace AD, Anno Domini, which in English is "In the Year of the Lord." It was supposed to be the year ''following'' the birth of Jesus of Nazareth.

== Karel Gott v. Ginger Baker ==

There seems to be an edit war as to whether [[Karel Gott]] or [[Ginger Baker]] should have an image in October deaths. I lean toward Karel Gott. — [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] [[User talk:Arthur Rubin|(talk)]] 09:06, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

:Just noticed this thread {{ping|Arthur Rubin}}, and I agree there should be a discussion about the images here (also going to ping {{ping|Alsoriano97}} and {{ping|Matt Campbell}}). In my view Baker's image deserves to be up on the page (I’d make the same argument for [[Jack Bruce]] on the [[2014]] page - incredibly influential bassist). He was a member of [[Cream]] (as well as [[Blind Faith]]), which were one of the most successful and important bands of the 1960s. As well as being generally regarded as the world's first supergroup, one of their albums ([[Wheels Of Fire]]) went on to become the world's first double album to go platinum. As a member of Cream, he was inducted in the [[Rock and Roll Hall of Fame]] in 1993. Baker himself was internationally recognised, influential and acclaimed as one of the most talented drummers not just of his era, but also of all time - alongside people like [[John Bonham]] and [[Keith Moon]]. Baker too was responsible from one of the earliest examples of drum solos in rock music, with the song "[[Toad (instrumental)|Toad]]", and his drumming skills has often being cited as important in the development of the rock and metal music genres. Baker's passing attracted a great deal of international attention and press coverage, as well as tributes from multitudes of musicians that were either his contemporaries, or were influenced by him. That's my view of it anyway - that Baker has the sufficient notability and significance to warrant an image in the death section. Gott was an important figure in his own right as well, but lacked the international stature and influence that Baker had. --[[User:Thescrubbythug|Thescrubbythug]] ([[User talk:Thescrubbythug|talk]]) 13:11, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

Is this right?

[edit]

The article is saying that 1923 media will enter the public domain in 2019, contradicting the fact that it must be at least 95 years old to be in the public domain. It implies that the actual number of years is 96, not 95. What am I confusing?? Georgia guy (talk) 00:51, 3 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I would also like to suggest changing the date format of this article to the DMY format (e.g. 6 June 2020 as opposed to June 6, 2020). The DMY format seems more international and more suitable for a "global" article like. Also DMY simply makes more sense as it goes from smallest to highest.

At the village pump, I've presented a proposal to establish a standard to use DMY in general for all articles about "generic" years. The discussion got kind of messy however, and I'll propaly restart it at some point. In the meantime, I would like it to create consensus about changing it for specifically this and all other nine articles about the 2010s--Marginataen (talk) 16:11, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
