Notable Events

If there has to be a list of events which occurred on 20 September, they should be "Notable Events". Many of the events listed are very obscure, or of purely local interest - such as "1962 – James Meredith, an African-American, is temporarily barred from entering the University of Mississippi".Royalcourtier (talk) 07:00, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Prophet

As I write?

As I write, the page says Muhammed arrived in Medina on 20th September, of 622AD.

Yet most of The relevant articles say he there in late May.

Is it possible to get some clarification? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cuddy2977 (talk • contribs) 15:35, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
