Good idea, and a convenient spread of dates. I'll add the 350th anniversary of the world's oldest scientific publication - the Royal Society are interested in doing something there. Daria has met Stefan Janusz who is the contact & an editor. Johnbod (talk) 15:52, 14 November 2014 (GMT)

Thanks John, be great to get some scientific dates in there. I checked but no element has its anniversary though there must be other things. Jonathan Cardy (WMUK) (talk) 16:12, 14 November 2014 (GMT)
Charles Matthews has suggested a few. They aren't linked to anniversaries and I think this is a good thing - I like the idea of a wishlist in general.
  • Public building
  • Moral Sciences Tripos (Cambridge, 19th century)
  • Timothy Cruso, who was at school with Daniel Defoe and was the source of Robinson Crusoe's surname
  • Jane Davy (Jane Kerr), society figure and wife of Humphry Davy
  • Sketch Club, late 1950s TV series by Gordon Murray who did Trumpton etc.
  • Dinah Mo, character in The Dandy.
