I don't know if a module exists for this, but is there a way to add a list of things that happened on this day in the past? ie the wikipedia main page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

This ought to do it:

Slightly different, but I wrote an 'on this day' module, which gives you a sidebar block of all nodes posted on this day going back as far as you want. It also gives you a node list at /onthisday It's currently in Bryght's public Subversion repository but I'll work to get it listed on Drupal.org. Also, I will probably rewrite it to use Views.

Thanks for the suggestion, but not quite what I'm looking for as I don't want to include all nodes

Which is why I want to port it to Views: that way you would be able to specify nodes of a certain tag and/or content type from this day.

OK, I'll check back for updates.
