Almost every event is of England with a few others from Europe. Nothing of China, Japan, India, Southeast Asia, Americas or Africa. Just because it's an English encyclopedia doesn't mean only English speaking areas are included.47.40.52.156 (talk) 14:32, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good work, why not ad them yourself? No one get's a salary for working here, so no one can be comanded to do anything, but articles are open for people like you to add whatever they would like to see in them. Its better to perform the changes yourself, than to ask others to do them for you. I do so myself. I wonät remove your template, but it's going to be there for years until those who cares will perform your changes; and since you are someone who do care, it is a good idea to do it yourself. --Aciram (talk) 15:44, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
"No one get's a salary for working here" Not true. There are gobs of paid editors in the pharma, political (critically important to campaigns), biography, TV/movie releases and religious pages (preaching on the Sabbath and having nothing else to do all week accept editing religion pages counts as subsidized editing). I stopped using my named account from 2008 and stopped trying to enter into extremely time consuming edit negotiations with the people who are here 8-12 hours (and get paid for it) who do not disclose their WP:COI without teeth pulling. I'll drop in this list but the sourcing (if challenged) will take more time than I care to spend. Although I did just see all the sources and many are already tied to Wiki pages. Good'luck and enjoy your time here. 47.40.52.156 (talk) 15:52, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
My found contributions added. Most all are in Wiki articles already. The St George lagoon landing is 1649, the founding date is claimed as 1650 on St George page. The official government page says 1649. 47.40.52.156 (talk) 16:53, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
