Wikipedia talk:Did you know/Darwin Day 2009

Media for Commons

Not "Did you know" related, but more media would also be good, e.g. images from his books (majority missing); images of and related to Darwin (e.g. those in the public domain plates of, say, the Desmond and Moore biography; audio/video of people talking about Darwin etc. Richard001 (talk) 09:02, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lincoln bicentennial

Since Abraham Lincoln is also celebrating his bicentennial birthday this day, maybe include Abe on this list?--King Bedford I ^{Seek his grace} 05:12, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds reasonable. Feel free to add a section about potential Lincoln articles (and/or list the ones you've already drafted) to this page.--ragesoss (talk) 23:01, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I did six, but as there was only one Darwin hook in its separate section at TT:DYK, they are under February 5th: Template_talk:Did_you_know#Lincoln_Boyhood_National_Memorial.--King Bedford I ^{Seek his grace} 00:16, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Too many?

We've now got 14 candidates, the approval template has nine spaces and eight seems to be a common number of articles featured in DYK. Any thoughts? . . dave souza, talk 09:15, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The DYK entries change during the day. On the face of it, the entries could be spread so that every batch had multiple entries. Rjm at sleepers (talk) 09:42, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
