Talk:Guru Nanak Gurpurab

Problems
While this article is already tagged, I felt it might be helpful for editors to have some explaination of the problems other editors see with it. There was some discussions Talk:Main Page/Archive 146 and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Sikhism. As I mentioned in the second link, I would welcome editors improving this article so that it can be featued on SA/OTD in the future Nil Einne (talk) 11:11, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes I am confused which one is the real day, November 2 (as said in Nanakshahi calendar) or Kartika Purnima (full moon or 15th day of Kartika, which can fall differently each year). Please clarify this.--Rochelimit (talk) 21:16, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Guru Nanak Gurpurab
The name of the article should be Guru Nanak Gurpurab because in Sikhism it's known as Gurpurab not Jayanti, it is most suitable and Officially too. The other reason is being Jayanti word is used for Hindu festivals not for Sikh fesitivals. Gurpurab is most commonly and officialy used in Sikh religion.

It seems that this was corrected, but the article still notes that it is celebrated publicly as Guru Nanak Jayanti, without explaining why the name is different from the title. Adding an "also known as" note in the intro would solve this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.207.75.155 (talk) 22:55, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

Why is this on different dates every year?
If the Nanakshahi calendar maps to the same Gregorian dates each year, why does this festival held on a different date each year? I'm sure it's a fairly simple explanation, but that's missing from the article. Thanks. — howcheng  {chat} 07:18, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
