I have made some year layout proposals which would affect a significant proportion of the year pages: an example of proposed style is 1850. It is detailed on my talk page. If no-one flags where I have put the discussion on my talk page that they object in a month I will start making everything consistent. It may take some time... --User:BozMo 12:28, 7 May 2004 (UTC)user talk:BozMo Please note also this is a rare page with ongoing events. I propose to delete this? --User:BozMo 12:28, 7 May 2004 (UTC)
