I think someone has vandalised this list, adding either random names, or the names of the people they know. How many notable celebrities/political leaders etc. were born in 1996??!!! I think you should clear the page and start this page again from scratch.
Yeah - I've been going thru the calander with a book I have "On this day in Rock n Roll History" so I've seen alot of days and this one has far too many births (and deaths) to be normal but some are recognizably real - like Roseanne Cash etc... But I didn't feel qualified to be the one to wipe out whatever I don't recognize. JvaGoddess
On the contrary, you seem to be the one perfectly suited to the task- you know more than me, anyway!!! All I know is events that have happened in Australia's history, not much else! I'm only 17!
Maybe we can get Larry Sanger to weigh in on this one (hint hint)- JvaGoddess
It appears someone copied a load of entries from http://www.dailyalmanacs.com/almanac2/may/0524.html Which is probably a violation of copyright... -- SJK
In that case then maybe we should delete the page and start again...
Nope, I just checked. The Daily Almanacs page states "History is free- use the info on the page however you want". So it's fine. But maybe we should add a reference as to who all these people are? -Mark
I'm especially intrigued by [Baby Boy Samane] under 'births'. MichaelTinkler
