I can see the point of putting events first, but this date articles have been going back and forth on that for a long time already. Please check some of the other dates first. I think we should strive for consistency more than anything. User:Danny OK, so what is the consensus? I am happy to go with one or the other - there is plenty of other work to do in the meantime :) I wonder if there is a consensus. I've just seen them go back and forth so many times already. Hey, I even tried it myself once (with events first, btw). We should come up with some consensus, then remember, there are about 3,000 date pages if not more ... User:Danny Yeah, but the majority of them are of the form: Births: Deaths: Events: - quite easy to remove :) How do we reach consensus? :Worse is the year in topic layout which on this page is one of three versions. I seek opinions before making them all the same; see comment on my talk page User:BozMoUser Talk:BozMo == Strange Dream == Recently, I had a dream saying, "On March 3, 1910..." (this date is from a deleted article from Wikipedia [existed in April 2004] that talks about a number "important in chemistry".) When I took chemistry, I never saw that number. I view that number as some kind of password. Can anyone answer the question "Where did this strange number actually come from??"
