Date mismatch

"The observance of All Souls' Day 'was spread throughout Europe' by Saint Odilo of Cluny in the late 13th century.[47]" Which is in fact what the source says (except it says Saint Odilo of France). Main problem is that St. Odilo was a turn-of-the millennium guy, not 200 years later. This needs some sorting out. -- ke4roh (talk) 02:33, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

All Saint's Day

All Saint's Day isn't (currently) a holy day of obligation in North America. I don't a citation handy, but I just read it today (All Soul's Day 2014) in the missal. However, that's a primary source. Is that good enough? Karatorian (talk) 16:05, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, it's simply not this year because it happens to fall on a Saturday. Karatorian (talk) 16:09, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In any case, no. Maybe in the US but not in Canada.--Richardson mcphillips (talk) 13:50, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Original date of All Saints' Day is May 1 or May 13

The paragraph taken from Frances Stewart Mossier (1901). Hallowe'en indicated that All Saints' Day was formerly celebrated on May 1. Isn't this supposed to be May 13 instead? The sentence taken from Clarification needed from experts.--Rochelimit (talk) 15:51, 16 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That looks like possibly due to some type of confusion/discrepancy involving the Julian vs Gregorian calendar (see Old Style and New Style dates. I believe Eastern Christianity celebrates Allhallowtide around that time of year, and the Eastern church uses the Julian calendar for religious observances (and in 1901 many eastern countries were still using it for all purposes). I think the difference between the two calendars is currently 14 days. From 1801 to 1900 it was 13 days. Firejuggler86 (talk) 18:35, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
