Talk:Christmas in the Philippines

message: Since it's celebrated at midnight, isn't it should be placed on December 25? --Howard the Duck 10:47, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Might I suggest emphasizing that this is held on Christmas Eve, rather than the specific time that is midnight? --Sofimi 17:10, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually the meal is done either exactly or after midnight, so technically it's on the 25th already. --Howard the Duck 16:12, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Rename to "Christmas in the Philippines"? 

message: Ummm, that is simply not true.
There is no 'yearly ban on firecrackers'. Establishments can legitimately sell firecrackers and other explosives. I am from the Philippines so do not even question me on this. Yes, there are illegal fireworks but there is no such 'yearly ban' on fireworks! Si lapu lapu (talk) 13:23, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Should something be said about malls and other shopping centers extending their shopping hours during the xmas season? I may have a pic or two showing that as well. Shrumster (talk) 21:13, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: If there are references I suppose. I don't know whether a picture saying "Extended Mall Hours!" is acceptable or not as a reference. This probably means that the article needs to be reorganized with major sections like "Traditions and practices" and "Economic activities" or "Economic effects". --seav (talk) 04:16, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

message: While the commercialization of Christmas may mean that many people celebrate Christmas early, Christmas as is celebrated in the Catholic Church begins on December 25th (the end of Christmas is disputed, and varies among traditions, but the current Church calendar ends it with the Baptism of the Lord, the Sunday after Epiphany). The four weeks before December 25th are a separate season called Advent, which are a time of fasting and preparation for Christmas.
