[edit] Parameters
[edit] Required
- holiday_name
- This is the most common holiday name, which appears at the top of the infobox. It should almost always be the name of the article.

- date
- required for single-day holidays - This is the date of a single-day holiday.
- date2006
- highly reccommended for holidays that don't stay on the same Gregorian date - This is the Gregorian date on which the holiday will occur in 2006. At the end of 2006, this will be replaced with date2007, which will later be replaced with date2008. Therefore, it's a good idea to specify the Gregorian date for a few future years.
