message: : as interesting as Ides of March is, our article suggests this is not a current observance.  The article seems fine, just this seems a bit unneeded now, what do you think? — xaosflux Talk 13:43, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  While normally I would agree that we shouldn't include observances that aren't actually observed, I think this one is OK because the term "ides of March" is so culturally ingrained (anecdotally, I saw this pop up a fair bit in my Facebook feed, for example). —howcheng  {chat} 23:31, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
