Two additions needed for 1911

1911 is an interesting year:

  Ramanujan's first problem was posed:
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Srinivasa_Ramanujan
  Ishi was discovered:
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishi
  Machu Picchu discovered by Hiram Bingham:
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machu_Picchu

the wikipedia entry for 1911 itself does not have the first two of the above listed. Blufoxxx (talk) 01:55, 9 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The first aerial photograph

January 10 - Major Jimmie Erickson takes the first aerial photograph (over San Diego, California).

But in the Aerial photograph article you can find this:

Aerial photography was first practiced by the French photographer and balloonist Nadar in 1858 over Paris, France.

April Fools

The april fools day event for Youtube this year is it pretending that it is 1911. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.94.216.158 (talk) 19:17, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

9 entries for aspects of the Mexican revolution

Ridiculous. Which part of b-a-l-a-n-c-e do you people not understand ? 213.246.124.90 (talk) 19:25, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. I'll try and get around to trimming/consolidating the entries in the next few days. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 21:06, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Frank De Vol

I reverted the entry for his death because it appeared to be a redlink, this was actually due to incorrect capitalisation. On looking at his article 5 foreign language articles would appear to indicate that he was internationally notable (as required for inclusion in a Year article). However, all the foreign language articles are small clones of the English one with no independent citations. ANd while his career is extensive it doesn appear to be particularly significant. If anyone has a convincing argument for inclusion I would have no strong objections. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 04:14, 25 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
