The article could use more info on non-USA recogntion and celebration of Mother's Day. -- Infrogmation 20:38 May 10, 2003 (UTC)
Agreed. Can some non-US contributors add some things? -- Zoe
If Mother's Day falls on a sunday, how can it be a holiday?
Mother's Day exist in other countries than those addressed in the article. For instance in Italy and France and date may differ : May 11 in Italy and May 25 in France this year. Ericd 10:46 May 14, 2003 (UTC)
The list of dates at the end of the article is very interesting and useful but it seems odd that the UK's mother's day is singled out as being unconnected to the US mother's day. Does this mean that the others are all in some way connected? It seems unlikely but I know little about their origins. --Kazuhiko
doing a quick check before tomorrow (the first Sunday in May), it turns out that, this year at least, South Africa is holding Mother's Day on the second Sunday rather than the first as indicated -- what sources do we have for non-US dates? Kwill 17:41, 1 May 2004 (UTC)
- Usually the sources are contributions from Wikipedians from those countries. I live in Poland, so I inserted Mother's Day date in Poland. I believe others did similarly. Przepla 19:02, 1 May 2004 (UTC)
