Removed:

• 1864 - Archduke Maximilian becomes Emperor of Mexico.

Well it did happen in 1864, but I could not confirm the Nov 10 date outside of 'this day in history'-type webpages (very bad source). --mav 01:41, 10 Nov 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Inconsistent Birth Year

[edit] What about veterans day?

Veteran's Day should be here.--64.121.1.55 04:03, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Except that Veteran's Day (Armistice Day, Remembrance Day, etc) falls on the 11th, not the 10th. --CalendarWatcher 04:33, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Nope, it falls on the closet weekday. Well good job, now everyone thinks its tomorrow.--64.121.1.55 22:17, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

If it falls on the nearest weekday (i.e. is a moveable event), it perhaps doesn't belong on a page about a specific month/day-combo at all? Rhialto 02:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Whether the US gives a weekday Bank Holiday for people when it falls on a weekend is immaterial:　it's still celebrated on the 11th. --CalendarWatcher 13:14, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
