What happened?
C'mon, soldiers, let's get back to work! — Ilγαηερ (Tαlκ) 03:28, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC) ;)
New Categories Proposal
I just drafted up a new one. This one is intended to fix the whole "where do religious international national non-religious holidays go?" issue. — Ilγαηερ (Tαlκ) 21:00, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
- I doubt if you can classify Christmas as international religious holidays. I don't think its celebrated in Islamic and far east countries. The only 'true' international holiday is the International Labour Day on 1 May. =Nichalp «Talk»= 06:40, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, it is sad that holidays like christmas and easter have become national. I suggest we make a step towards NPOV and classify those holidays, and anything else questionable, as "religous". "Secular" would mean, say, President's Day and Memorial Day. HereToHelp 20:38, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- i've made a diagram using the "secular holiday", religious "holy day" model. this has the least cross category occurrences that i could puzzle together, and also prevents categorical marginalization. thoughts?Some thing 20:15, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Template Suggestion
Rather than risk a breach of NPOV (with a christmas tree, perhaps), may I recommend a calandar with a date mark with an X to show its significance? HereToHelp 20:40, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
