 * ) I admire that point of view. But, as I've said, it's inconsequential, as the actual date of broadcast or release doesn't matter - it's the fact that it's dedicated to the fiftieth that's the deciding factor.

I actually agree that 23 November is the least relevant, but it's still, in a sense, the "birth" of Doctor Who. No, no, scratch that: that might be a number of days, including 31 July. Fine, call it "puberty" - the day the show became "ripe." While it doesn't have as much weight on the future, it's still an important "first." The very first time an episode of Who was broadcast. While it might not be as crucial as other days, for the fiftieth, that's the day that everyone seems to be celebrating.

All that being said, yes, that would mean changes in wording and all that, but it doesn't affect what's allowed in the article. To repeat myself: what's allowed in the article is whatever's in celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of Who in general, regardless of date.
