I removed the following paragraph from the article, as it does not seem to be relevant to the article. If there is some specific tie (beyond sharing the date April 23, which is not the subject of this article), please explain. -- Infrogmation (talk) 20:02, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Other occasions marked on the date

April 23 is also World Book and Copyright Day, created by UNESCO in 1995 to promote reading, publishing and copyright. UNESCO chose its date partly in honour of St George's Day as celebrated in the Spanish region of Catalonia, when sweethearts traditionally exchange gifts of books, what derived in the "Book Day" celebration in all the Spanish country. Walton chose April 23 in recognition of the Catalan celebration, and because the date is traditionally considered William Shakespeare's birthday, but she was unaware of the pre-existing United Nations observance.^[1]

opaque garble

(I'm taking the unusual step of putting this Talk Page comment in a lower-level section, to emphasize that it is not part of the paragraph criticized and removed from the article by Infrogmation.)

What is "what derived in the 'Book Day"' celebration in all the Spanish country" supposed to mean? It certainly isn't grammatical or decipherable, at least to me; and "in all the Spanish country" sure looks like a translation by someone whose English is less than fluent.--Thnidu (talk) 21:55, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
