1920 – Savoia flying boats

I'm no Wikipedia expert, but the 1920 entry for Savoia flying boats crashing in the Alps has no link to the subject of the factoid. It links to SIAI-Marchetti with no further information about the specific model airplane, links to the Swiss Alps, and links to the Finnish Air Force. Shouldn't there be a link to a page offering more information about the actual event? Eltrace (talk) 14:02, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The release of Shoot 'Em Up

While well sourced, it seems to me that the release of this movie on this date is nothing short of fan WP:TRIVIA. Toddst1 (talk) 19:02, 5 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Holidays OL of Covadonga

The linked article says Sept 8. So either it is wrong or she shouldn't be here today.--2607:FEA8:D5DF:FEF6:802:1700:38B0:C8C (talk) 10:32, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Melchior Grodziecki

With Istvan Pongracz and Marko Krizin listed here, is there any reason why Melchior Grodziecki is not listed here? These three are commemorated together and are always listed together elsewhere.--2607:FEA8:D5DF:FEF6:802:1700:38B0:C8C (talk) 12:24, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

although the Jesuits themselves seem to celebrate them on Jan 19 under the title Martyrs of the Reformation. http://www.sjweb.info/resources/saintslistall.cfm?Criteria=M and http://jesuitinstitute.org/Pages/Liturgy/Calendar.htm --2607:FEA8:D5DF:FEF6:802:1700:38B0:C8C (talk) 12:24, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
