Add when non- Native Americans first saw New York Harbor+land that became New York City? An Italian captain of a French ship trying to find a route to Asia April 17th 1524. They named NYC's harbor bridge after him. Sagittarian Milky Way ( talk) 21:23, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
I proposed Bach's Du Hirte Israel, höre, BWV 104 for tomorrow on its 300th anniversary of the first performance (by date). I saw that nobody looked at the last days, and wonder who could check the addition. I am reluctant to place in into the actual set myself. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 10:32, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
For unprotected days, go ahead and add them directly to the project page...There really aren't many editors managing OTD, so feel free to be bold. As it is, the items for this day were basically the same as last year's. — Bagumba ( talk) 15:47, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
Would someone please be able to add Good Friday (Eastern Orthodoxy) to the OTD box. Today, May 3, it is Orthodox Good Friday, one of the most holiest liturgical days of the Orthodox calendar. When it was Western Christianity's Good Friday, I believe it was in OTD. May 5, obviously, is Orthodox Easter as well. Thanks! - Therealscorp1an ( talk) 09:55, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
I am re-setting up the May checks to help editors keep track of which dates have already been swapped. Thank you to PFHLai and others for keeping this project going. Please indicate below when you have completed a date. Thanks, Z1720 ( talk) 19:18, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
As discussed with PFHLai, I'd like to see mentioning the 150th anniversary of Verdi's Requiem on 22 May OTD. I added it to day and year but not yet. The response was that it's not properly sourced. I added sources, what do you think? -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 14:24, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
