== Holidays or Events? == Some of the 'holidays' listed here aren't actually listed under [http://web.archive.org/web/20070512221205/http://www.riven.com/dni_time.html#holiday the ''holidays'' section of the old Cyan webpage], (e.g. The Day of the Circle,) which raises the question of whether these really are recurrent holidays or whether they were actually one-off events. If they were events then they don't really belong here and should probably be moved to a different page. [[User:Pharap|Pharap]] ([[User talk:Pharap|talk]]) 06:26, 31 July 2024 (UTC) :I went ahead and deleted the Fall of D'ni from the list. There is a reference in the Ri'neref notebook to the "first Day of the Circle", but that's the only hint I can find that it might have been repeated. [[User:Talashar|Talashar]] ([[User talk:Talashar|talk]]) 01:42, 2 August 2024 (UTC) :: Removing The Fall certainly makes sense. (I don't think the D'ni would be celebrating that, even if they ''were'' still around to celebrate it.) :: I see where you mean about the ''Day of the Circle''. Footnote 'g'. (I frequently forget to check the footnotes of these references.) I think that's a hint that it was repeated, but even if it's something they did more than once I question whether it's a 'holiday' or something more like a G7 Summit. The word 'celebration' is used, but I'm uncertain as to whether that's intended to imply that it was a holiday, or whether perhaps it was just the first occurance that was a celebration. I'd suggest moving it into a separate article, but we know so little about it that it would probably be the tiniest 'stub' in the enitre wiki. :: Perhaps the best compromise for now would be to partition the list into 'Holidays' and 'Possible Holidays'?<br/>Or to mark the two remaining ambiguous 'holidays' as {{tlx|contested}}? :: --[[User:Pharap|Pharap]] ([[User talk:Pharap|talk]]) 09:58, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
