[edit] Christmas on Sunday

Delete - per nomination. There's already information on the cycling of the Gregorian calendar. This is, well, pretty unencyclopedic IMHO. D.valued 14:35, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

Aargh. Wrong text in box is why there's two edits. D.valued 14:35, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep - I see no problem with this little factoid. - J.Cantara (added as 65.175.175.236 (talk · contribs), user's first edits in months}
• Keep - As author, I was intrigued by the subject of when does Christmas fall on Sunday. I was unable to find any information on the web, so I set out to analyze and research the subject. Yes, there is ample info on the cycling of the Gregorian calendar, but none specificly regarding Christmas. - Jbunker 16:49, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, WP:NOR if you want to call it original research. AfD subst was removed by anon IP user.  RasputinAXP  _{talk contribs} 17:02, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - Would you consider it acceptable to link this article from the Leap Year page? Don't_bite_the_newcomers- Jbunker 18:20, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Rasputin AXP. Is there some reason we should care when Christmas falls on Sunday? howcheng {chat} 18:30, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - If we Keep should we also not have articles on Christmas on Monday, Christmas on Tuesday, ad nauseum?? Madman 20:18, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Rasputin. Flyboy Will 20:36, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Rasputin and nom. Christmas always falling on December 25th, it does not have behavior that is different from that of any other date. The behavior of Easter, Hanukkah, and Eid ul-Fitr might be more interesting. For example (warning: trick question): how often do (Western) Easter and Passover fall on the same day?

  • I can say that Eastern Easter *always* is after Pesach... :) D.valued 05:07, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Rasputin and nom. I see no real useful information here. James084 20:56, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
• I surrender! Thanks to all for your input. And, BTW: Merry Christmas to all! - Jbunker 21:35, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
