Talk:Swabian-Alemannic Fastnacht

Perchten
I actually don't understand why Perchten tradition of some German and Austrian regions is mentioned here, since neither of the regions mentioned here are part of the Swabian-Alemannic cultural region but are Bavarian (in the linguistic sense, not the federal state of Germany, which is linguistically more diverse). The Perchten tradition is also usually closely connected to the Christmas traditions in this regions and in no way to Carnival or Lent, but I currently only have my life experience growing up there to back me up and no good sources. So if nobody adds any context and sources to how the Perchten tradition is relevant to this article, I would remove it sometimes soon. --2A02:8388:1A00:6900:E7B2:1EAD:2904:20F8 (talk)

Comment
Here in Pennsylvania, the word 'fastnaught' also refers to the donut-like pastry itself. Further description of the pastry might be appropriate under this heading. Kelwyn 03:30, 21 March 2007 (UTC)


 * There is no reference to Pennsylvania in the article, has this dropped out completely? Is the thing you mean identical with Krapfen? --Maxus96 (talk) 22:18, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

This is supposed to be about Swabian-Alemannic Fastnacht? No? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.99.202.66 (talk) 20:27, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

was in the 11th century and has nothing to do with reformation. --Maxus96 (talk) 22:15, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Liechtenstein is missing
The Alemannische Fasnacht is also celebrated in the Prinicipality of Liechtenstein. Please add this country to the list of countries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.190.194.24 (talk) 07:14, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
