Talk:Jubilate Sunday

Jubilate Sunday follows Misericordia Sunday (actually called Misericordias Domini Sunday) (which follows Quasimodogeniti Sunday) and is succeeded by Cantate Sunday. Dgljr5121973 (talk) 20:11, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, these Sundays are traditionally called after the first word or words of the introit for the Mass. On Low Sunday (Second Sunday of Easter), the introit begins, " Quasi modo geniti infantes."  After this, it starts to get more complicated.  The traditional names were based, not surprisingly, on the introits used in the [|pre-Vatican II form of the Mass].  In the modern form, some of them have been moved around.  So on the Third Sunday of Easter, in the old form it was " Misericordia Domini plena est terra," and in the new form it is " Iubilate Deo omnis terra."  On the Fourth Sunday, those are reversed, and by the Fifth Sunday both forms are back together using " Cantate Domino canticum novum."
 * "Divine Mercy Sunday" (the Latin form of which you mention) only dates back eleven years, and shouldn't be confused with the Sunday traditionally known as "Misericordia Sunday." But now that introit is used on two different Sundays in the two different forms of the Mass!  What could possibly have been the reason for flipping the introits for the third and fourth Sundays of Easter?  Who knows.  At any rate, it is enough to make me wonder if just removing the navboxes altogether wouldn't be for the best.  I'll think about it.  Glenfarclas  ( talk ) 07:53, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Wow! That's complicated. Okay, you did a good job with your Misericordia Sunday disambig, but I don't see now where does my Misericordias Domini page fits. Should we may be nominate it for deletion then? EugeneZ (talk) 11:34, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, and BTW, I think it would be good to fix Paschal Tide page in light of this newly discovered circumstances. EugeneZ (talk) 11:39, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Hm, yes, good question on Misericordias Domini. From what I can tell, the two names are completely interchangeable -- take a look here, here, here, and here (citing "Misericordias Domini), versus here, here, and here (calling it "Misericordia Sunday").  I guess I don't really have much of a preference what we do; any thoughts?  The two main options would seem to be (1) leaving Misericordia Sunday as a disambiguation and pointing the latter two entries to Misericordias Domini, where the distinction could further be developed, or (2) moving the content of your article to Misericordia Sunday, which would then simply have a hatnote for disambiguation to point to the Octave of Easter.  Either way, we would not want to delete Misericordias Domini outright.  Glenfarclas  ( talk ) 17:34, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I think second option would be a bit more consistent, since all other Paschal Tide sundays actually have "Sunday" in the name of the article and not just Introit, although just as you pointed out they are interchangeable. EugeneZ (talk) 19:24, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Done. Let me know if you have any further thoughts!  Glenfarclas  ( talk ) 20:41, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
