The NIght Attack
Please change the name of Vlad III the Impaler to Vlad III Dracula, as it is mentioned in the Night Attack, the article which is featured On this Day. It is a matter of consistency and nothing else. It is not good to have Vlad III Impaler on the main page and Vlad III Dracula in the article. --Thus Spake Anittas 22:01, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
- Also, I don't think it should say that he attacked an Ottoman Empire camp, but an Ottoman camp. Otherwise, everything else is fine. --Thus Spake Anittas 22:05, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Hyatt Regency Walkway Collpase
I would like to know the name of the mornoic editor who put the Hyatt Regency Walkway Collapse in Kansas City, Mo. on the JUNE 17 page. It is lised as JULY 17, 1981 on the main article for the incident, the 1981 timeline page AND the July 17 timeline page. Yet smoehow some genius with an IQ hovering around mentally retarded thought it was on June 17, too. When will this be REMOVED? It has now been up here for nearly a full HOUR. I will continue to post about this until it is removed. So get the job done or else. MORONS. IDIOTS. FOOLS. DUMBFUCKS. DavidSteinle (talk) 00:57, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
