[edit] Old new year

Obviously the Orthodox Easter is missing. A different question: is the "Old New Year" worth noting? --Irpen 19:32, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Students' Day in Russia ?

Is January 25 still celebrated as the Students' Day in Russia ? See Moscow State University#University history. -- 199.71.174.100 05:50, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Public Holidays

Please note that this is a list of PUBLIC holidays, which means people don't (generally) work on this day, and schools are closed. Of course, there is a lot more holidays in Russia.

[edit] Cyrillic Alphabet Day

Is Saints Cyril and Methodius Day celebrated in Russia? Evertype 15:04, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Imperial?

Occupying imperial army? Sounds like a soviet term rathern than an academic one. Unless you are refering to the Kaiser's armies occupying Ruussian land, I think it should be changed. The German armies are very rarely mentioned as imperial, even though the Kaiser was an "emperor".Tourskin 19:08, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The article needs to be fixed

It doesn't specify official holiday duration (5 days for New Year's Holiday in 2007) and possibly needs other important fixes. Perhaps a nice table format should not hurt as well. Such an information can easily be found, for example, here. Cmapm 17:25, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
