• 1910 - Rockefeller Foundation: J.D. Rockefeller Jr. announces his retirement to philanthropy.

Rockefeller Foundation is a stub and it has not been updated to reflect the historical event. If and when those two things change, this entry can go back in. --mav 00:37, 29 Feb 2004 (UTC)

• 1969 - Sirhan Sirhan admits he killed presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy.

Sirhan Sirhan is a stub. Robert F. Kennedy is not, so I'm going to create a Robert F. Kennedy entry on the day of his death. --mav 00:37, 29 Feb 2004 (UTC)

• 1905 - Tsar Nicholas II of Russia agrees to create an elected assembly (the Duma).

Same as RFK. Please read the guidelines. --mav

Liberation of Bulgaria

Please fix year to 1878 (currently shown: 1978). Thanks. --Cryout 00:24, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Steve Irwin - did not die on March 3. this is not the date on his Bio page and as March 3 is my Birthdqay I would have remembered if the ensuing drama after his death occurred on my birthday.

"Rocket 88"

March 3, 2011, marks the 60th anniversary of the (probable) recording date of "Rocket 88" by Jackie Brenston with Ike Turner, widely cited as "the first rock and roll record".[1][2] This should be marked in some way. I'm aware of some differences between sources as to whether it was recorded on 3 March or 5 March 1951 - there appears to be no consensus, but this should not stand in the way of commemorating the event.

Alas, the article is in dire need of more references. Luckily, you have a couple of weeks to improve it. —howcheng {chat} 18:55, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

I'll see what I can do. Gobōnobō ^{+ c} 07:02, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

I've provided more sources for the article. While it still could use some expansion, the article has most of the salient details. Gobōnobō ^{+ c} 16:23, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
