Trivial. Underground ezine. Nuff said. --mav 07:59, 18 Nov 2003 (UTC)

I've removed:

• 1988 - The Netherlands becomes the second country to get connected to the Internet.

I haven't been able to find a source for this, and it does seem implausible unless a suitably odd definition of "Internet" is used (the first international connection of Usenet (to Canada) was a good seven years earlier, and the term was in use back then... If anyone does know what event it refers to and wants to add it back, feel free; possibly also add to History of the Internet? Shimgray 21:41, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I think Norway was the second country to get connected. Emuzesto 11:18, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Seems unlikely somehow; I suspect however it's defined, it's likely to end up having been Canada. Don't suppose you know the basis of the Norwegian claim, do you? Shimgray 11:35, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Removed:

• 1993 - Atri Rohan Banerjee

Removed:

• 1911 - Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. was founded on the campus of Howard University.

Is there any real need to mention the creation of Fraternities? Its hardly important and most people haven't heard of them.

Not a notable person. Main article was removed by others for the same reason. --maebmij 16:22, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
