  • Support It's cute. I would improve the wording a bit to explain what "holiday" means - it has different meanings in different countries. (Notably in Australia it basically means "vacation" whereas we would say "public holiday" for a special day on which most people don't work.) Stevage (talk) 02:04, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Do not oppose. But it needs more effort than wearing green on St Patrick's Day! Bottomley Potts (talk) 08:43, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

May I ask why? Wearing green is a traditional and very common way for people to celebrate St Patrick's Day, why should this not count towards the achievement? --KerrMcF (talk) 18:30, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
I agree that wearing green is in the spirit of the holiday and should qualify under the current definition of the achievement. If we want this achievement to require more effort, we would have to define what's constitute sufficient effort. For me, anything deliberate and sufficiently-related that celebrates the Holiday and requires some planning (such as wearing green) should be enough. Otherwise bringing a towel to Towel Day shouldn't count either. --Baarde (talk) 10:10, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
