I changed the infobox so that the correct century (the 19th) is shown in bold. The 20th century starts with 1901, not 1900. --Thorsen 07:15, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

The year in topic layout on this page is one of three versions. I seek opinions before making them all the same; see comment on my talk page.

I'm doing some link corrections and note that Labour Party (UK) was founded twice this month ... anyone want to hazard which is right and make the appropriate deletion? --Vamp:Willow 16:51, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I am also doing some link checking and noticed that the date that the US State of Hawaii officially becoming a territory is listed as occouring 3 times in the year of 1900. The 1900 year page claims the date is Feb. 22nd, while the April 30, June 14 pages claim that it was organized on those respective days. The actual Hawaii page has no specific date and after much searching on the net I find that both dates are listed on numerous different websites. Can anyone confirm the actual date that Hawaii became a US territory and make the change? --Seandals 07:09, 12 Dec 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hawaii

Did anyone notice that Hawaii becomes a U.S. Territory twice (on both February 22 and then again on July 14th)? Very impressive. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.225.120.250 (talk) 10:47, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

It didn't even happen in 1900 according to the Territory of Hawaii article. The first territorial governor took office in 1900 though - his article, Sanford B. Dole doesn't give any dates. I have therefore removed both mentions of Hawaii becoming a territory in this article. Graham87 14:05, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I have fixed it so as Zheng Ji will now lead to the real person, not the disambugation page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Royalmate1 (talkcontribs) 22:40, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Savrola

According to the biography by roy jenkins, churchill's novel Savrola was first published as a serial in Macmillans magazine in 1899 from may to december, and was published as a book in the USA in November 1899. Got his marketing right, did churchill. Sandpiper (talk) 23:13, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
