here is an interesting observation. the last few questions were all from newbies who joined this month. i just now got a question from a 46 posts old newbie named MeanTruthTeller. it appears the newbie became a member in March itself. .

all century years, unless divisible by 400 are not leap years. so 1500 is not a leap year, unless they are thinking of the pre Gregorian reform.

strictly speaking 1500 is a leap year. the gregorian reform occured in 1582, prior to which leap year calculation was based strictly on being divisible by 4. after 1582, the concept of century years were considerd.
