Reference to Ash Wednesday[edit]

Ash Wednesday is at the beginning of Lent and these happen after Easter. Is this wednesday called Ash Wecnesday there? Cosnahang 10:13, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No. The Ash Wednesday refered to in the text is the traditional Ash Wednesday I think. I'm not sure. The festivities end before Ash Wednesday, thats all I know. --- ÅñôñÿMôús ^{Dîššíd3nt} 12:06, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sources[edit]

Wikipedia is not a reliable source. The french wikipedia is insufficient to support this article. Don't we have something better? Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 03:10, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

yeah, I know. I'll see what I can do. --- ÅñôñÿMôús ^{Dîššíd3nt} 06:50, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
