I've just spent 20 minutes trying to get this to load, then ten writing a response, then my computer decides to crash and lose my entire response. I don't even remember what I wrote. I'll try again, though:

My point, despite what you might think OS, isn't about rarity. It supports it, yes, but it's a side note. My point is that it's a big thing for the viewers in celebration of the fiftieth.

In fact, I agree with Czech for the most part. I don't want small things like reruns in America (even if it's the premiere in the States) in the articles. As he said, we can provide a link for that.

What I do think is that we should include whatever each country does in celebration of the 50th, the biggest mark in Doctor Who history so far. For every country that does so. I think it's very notable. As I said, it's the biggest event is DW History and it would be both useful and interesting for future visitors to look back (or even present-day viewers from different countries) and see what everyone did to celebrate.

BBCA shows The Aztecs'. Not noteworthy. Americans get to see The Aztecs for the first time in celebration of Doctor Who's 50th anniversary - noteworthy.

If someone can give me a reasonable argument why it's specifically wrong to talk about countries' celebration, then I'll change my mind. Until then, this is my opinion.
