Talk:Valencia Fallas

message: The article sounds more like a tourist advertisement than an objective description. I admire the author's passion for the subject and I don't doubt how fun the whole event is, but this needs to be reflected objectively rather than "...You'll be lying in bed trying to recover from last night's partying when it starts..."

replies: text: -Nevertheless, I am Spanish myself, and I agree completely with the text and the writer. I think that the emphasis and the details given are exactly the ones that should be transmited to those that are looking for information about Fallas. I have gone to each one every year since I was 4, and I can tell from experience that, the feeling of being awaken at 8 a.m. by incredibly loud explosions and the car alarms, after a long night of partying, will stay written on your memory for ever. All, from the smell of the black powder while you are walking through Valencia, to the beautifully constructed marvels, and of course the deliciously prepared Paella, has to be explained with all of those feelings for the curious reader to get the grasp of this amazing event. It is true that the tone and some quotes make this article somewhat different from a common encyclopedia, and make it sound a bit informal, however, I am sure that this is really how Spanish Culture should be seen by outsiders.

text: --I agree with the text, but some of the parenthesis need to be removed, eg.  Huge crowds gather from all corners of the city to see this event (go early!).  That's some of what contributes to the unencyclopedic tone. Esk3 (talk) 21:47, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

message: There does not exist the cultural Catalan / Valencian domain, for the same reason that the holiday of the fallas is not considered to be a Catalan but Valencian holiday. Actually the fallas form a part of the cultural Valencian area.Valencia and the Catalan community have his own cultural differentiated identities one of other one  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.252.52.193 (talk) 01:29, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

message: It is mind-boggling that an article about a festival doesn't mention the most important information: the dates. There is no mention of March 15 and you need to scroll down a bit to find the culmination on March 19. Instead, the date when it was included by UNESCO, sticks out in the introduction. --82.207.237.218 (talk) 21:49, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: It's even more mind-boggling that you didn't fix this egregious omission yourself. Carlstak (talk) 04:05, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
