Wow, what the hell? The language in this article is bizarre and un-encyclopedic. It feels like whoever wrote this article was trying to bash atheists by associating New Year cards with non-secularism. Celebrating the new year has nothing to do with secularism or lack thereof, and this entire article should be re-worded to remove the bizarre atheist-bashing. 192.190.255.11 (talk) 10:14, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
I haven't got any sources other than my personal experience living in Slovakia. The use of e.g. PF2018 here is by everyone, regardless of how religious or not they are. Typically now you will find families emailing a Christmas photo with the caption of simply PF2018 usually between the first day of Christmas and New Years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.23.113.122 (talk) 09:42, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
This article's value is that it explains the history of "P.F." - which by the way is not used or understood by anyone who speaks French. They are French words indeed, but are gibberish in this context. This article nicely explained why this is so: it was introduced by a non-native speaker. This article now wrongly states that New Year cards generally contain "PF", while the currently included example images even contradict this statement. The reality is as follows: new year cards have been sent all over the world, however, only in Slovakia and Czech Republic they include this "P.F.". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.143.33.160 (talk) 07:55, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
