[edit]If January and February were the inserted months, what were July and August called before the reigns of the respective Caesars?jimfbleak 16:11 Apr 24, 2003 (UTC)
- Quintilis and Sextilis. I added this info to the pages on July and August. -- IHCOYC 16:19 Apr 24, 2003 (UTC)
1 July same day of week as 1 April
[edit]"July starts on the same day of the week as April in common years." Why does it matter whether we're talking about a leap year? Doesn't 1 July occur 91 (7 * 13) days after 1 April every year? --AndersW (talk) 00:52, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
right . It doesn't matter.Handsomeransom (talk) 03:50, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
Great Nawaf?
[edit]The article contains a sepia-toned photo of a boy on a playground, captioned "The Great Nawaf." I'm mystified as to why this photo and caption are present, and what they have to do with the month of July. 71.219.218.241 (talk) 19:16, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

For those who came here to investigate the anecdote
[edit]about Julius Caesar creating two more month beside ten existing in order to get more taxes: it is fake -- https://www.livescience.com/45650-calendar-history.html -- Wesha (talk) 21:35, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
- Fantastic! It should be a wiki page. (It’s about the whole calendar: not just July).
- Keeping Time: Months and the Modern Calendar
When
[edit]Several sites say Quintilis was renamed in 44BC, after Caesar had died (i.e. March 44BC).
Anyone know when?
Was July 44BC called July? MBG02 (talk) 00:31, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

missing: #climate
[edit]de:Juli#Klima has such a section. Translation:
July is the warmest month of the year north of the Tropic of Capricorn, i.e., in Europe, North America, and most of Asia. July weather significantly influences the quantity and quality of the harvest. This is reflected in numerous farmers' rules; see weather and farmers' rules for July.
Due to the uneven distribution of land and water on the Earth's surface, extreme temperatures are also measured globally in July. For example, July 2023 is the month with the highest monthly average temperature ever recorded.[2] Previously, July 2019[3] and 2021[4] had already held the record as the hottest month since weather records began.
July 2025 was the the third warmest July ever recorded worldwide. The average temperature was 16.68 degrees Celsius, as the EU Climate Change Service Copernicus announced yesterday in Bonn. While this is 0.27 degrees below the record for July 2023 and 0.23 degrees below the value for July 2024, it is 0.45 degrees higher than the July average for the years 1991 to 2020.

The spelling of July
[edit]After doing a bit of research, I think the spelling of July stems from old-French, instead of it directly being from Latin. We can see this in the spelling, because in English it isn't spelled Juli, which yes comes from Julius. His named isn't spelled Julyus. I think this worth mentioning, but again I wasn't able to find many resources backing up this claim. Oscardthegreat (talk) 15:30, 28 June 2026 (UTC)
- The old-French is derived from Latin "Iulius", which is the origination.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 15:55, 28 June 2026 (UTC)
