Talk:Baba Marta

This looks somewhat related to the Baba Dochia from the Romanian mythology - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dochia, both are angry old ladies waiting for the spring and celebrated on March 1 (Nicubunu 13:18, 28 February 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Verification required? Maybe I should add a verification tag to an article about, say, Hallowe'en?

Baba Marta is clear Bulgarian celebration, it should not be merged with Baba Dochia, because Bulgarians first of all are Bulgarians, Slavic people of the Balkans, not Dachians, Romanic people, as the Romanians are. So it is wrong for the two articles to be merged even hough there is clear similarity between them

-- The phrase "Children usually compete who will get the most and often walk around more ornate than a Christmas tree." is standing out at me as irrelevant. As far as I see it, this is an opinion, and shouldn't really be in the article. 81.97.247.2 (talk) 20:44, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any reason this doesn't include a note on the very similar Romanian holiday of Martisol? Some information can be found here: http://www.balkantravellers.com/en/read/article/413 This seems factual to me given a book on the subject (I don't have this book with me right now) Why is this not included? Does anyone mind if I add it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arawn V (talk • contribs) 04:47, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
