there is a disagreement on this page about whether Dec 26 is the first or second day of christmas. in my mind it makes sense that it is the 2nd day...can someone explain to me why some say it is the first? Kingturtle 15:15, 12 May 2005 (UTC)
Re: "Second day of Christmas in Denmark, Germany, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Poland, Suriname and Scandinavia - a holiday without work. The celebration is more or less the same as first day of Christmas, including the option going to Mass." Could someone fix this who knows about Dec. 26? Denmark, Scandanavia, Netherlands, and parts of Germany are protestant. While Lutherans may have kept the Mass, I never knew of a Lutheran who said they were going to mass. Other protestant religions have not kept the mass. I would fix this, but I don't know the proper answer. 99.145.23.242 ( talk) 01:50, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

The 2004 Earthquake-Tsunami, which killed 2,30,000 people, is not included in 'Selected aniversaries'. Somebody please correct this glaring omission. (And no, it is not because the relevant article is small, 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami is 86,850 bytes long as of 06:02, 27 December 2014.)

Dear John,
When I answered the door today the postman left me another gift from you. Just imagine, not one... but TWO turtledoves! I am delighted with your thoughtful gift. They are absolutely adorable.
With deepest love and affection,

I am not surprised it was changed back from
to
but isn't it funny how the short form can be used for all except Czechia.
