Translation

I just translated this article from the article on the Catalan Wikipedia, but my Catalan is nowhere near perfect, so it could do with some checking. —Celestianpower háblame 17:56, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

La Castanyada is not a "festival". Festa popular in this case means traditional culture, but I don't know how to translate it to english 100%. --Catalaalatac (talk) 12:36, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that festival is a fairly close translation. Festival in English has a broad meaning, from large events involving millions of people, to small ones involving just a few. Another possibility would be to use 'tradition', i.e. 'The Castanyada is a Catalan tradition ...' where the following information would define the content of the tradition. I would still probably stick with 'festival' though. Djlloyd45 (talk) 07:26, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mogosto, etc.

I'm not sure these ought to be included in this article, as - correct me if I'm wrong - they appear to be completely separate festivals, but just with similar themes. At the very least - if they are to stay - the article would need to be called something else ('Chestnut Festivals in the Iberian Peninsula' or something a bit more catchy perhaps...) What do people think? —Celestianpower háblame 16:19, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The origin and the time of both festivals is practically the same. Nevertheless the name ethimology is more complicated in Galician, maybe a Celtic origin word. I think that they must be included in the same article, but the article name should be changed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.147.114.150 (talk) 21:00, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
