[edit] re Winston Churchill

[edit] Re: References to Military Occupation are POV

I am new to Wikipedia, so forgive me if I'm talking out of turn, but surely describing the presence of British soldiers in Boston in 1770 as a "Military Occupation" is a Point of View that has no place in Wikipedia, particularly on the front page? 81.96.78.18 14:36, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

As it is clearly not contended, I have removed reference to Military Occupation. MJD. 82.30.249.52 (talk) 15:19, 26 December 2007 (UTC).

[edit] What?!?!

I cannot believe Wikipedia's American-centric attitude put Casimir Pulaski Day as more important than learn from Lei Feng day. What is the justification for this? That China is supposedly communist and authoritarian? Colipon+(T) 04:12, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
