Đurđevdan is not celebrated on May 23 by old calendar, but on April 23. This Serbian religious holiday is also a major holiday for Roma from former Yugoslavia, whether Orthodox or Muslim. Ederlezi in Romani language, this holiday celebrates the return of springtime.

[edit] Negative To Proposed Merging
I dont think the article should be merged with St. George's Day, because it is not only the name of the Serbian St. George Day but also a Roma holiday with the same name (with no connection with St. Georges day, accept the date) and a song from the band Bijelo Dugme. Sveti Djordje in Serbia is also NOT a patron saint. Although I think, Djurdjevdan could be mentioned on the St. George Day article. But Djurdjevdan article should remain. Litany
[edit] No Merging
Since it has passed more then 5 days since it was requested to merge this page with St. George's Day and I am the only one to say anything about the raised question. Since I Oppose the mergen I call of the merging. I will although ad an info section on the St. George's Day article about Djurdjevdan. Litany 18:28, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Expansion
This article need an expansion. It also needs sections for Slavs Djurdjevdan and Roma Djurdjevdan. If somebody want to contribute I would be very happy but I will do my best with finding information and add to this article. Litany 18:52, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
Added a part of the Gorani tradition of the holiday. Litany 18:44, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Which date?
Đurđevdan ... a Serbian religious holiday, celebrated on April 23 by the Julian calendar, or May 6 by Gregorian calendar.
So do some Serbs celebrate on April 23 and some on on May 6? The article doesn't say which date or which calendar is used where. Claret 22:56, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
- 23 April Julian and 6 May Gregorian are the very same day, obviously. Duja 12:29, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] English Wikipedia, Right?
Being that there is no "Đ" in the English alphabet, how is this pronounced? Should we start writing articles using 質問をな (Japanese) and програми (Russian) as well? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.69.81.2 (talk) 14:15, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
