Talk:Père Noël

What the heck is going on?
I looked here a week ago and there was a nice little stub about Pere Noel. Now I look and see two paragraphs, the first of which starts Pere Noel is sometimes confused with some other dude. That's not an appropriate way to start an article. Who is Pere Noel? That's what goes at the beginning. And there needs to be some discussion here about all these edits going on.

It looks like an anonymous user removed a substantial amount of information, including the not-so-minor detail that Québec's «Père Nöel» is very much just the English language Santa Claus re-labelled but depicted in the same manner as Santa in the rest of the Canadian market. Normally, such a large and unexplained removal of content is promptly reverted, putting the info back into the page. Not sure why that didn't happen this time? --66.102.80.212 (talk) 23:18, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
