Talk:Russ
|
Partying to celebrate the end of high school education is not a phenomenon limited to the Scandinavian countries... the intro is perhaps badly phrased. --Shallot 17:29, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Remember that the celebration goes on for weeks, not just a few parties.
About the cleanup tone thingy...
I added this, because some phrases are badly written... I will edit some of this later, but I do not have the time now... First of all; the english is not good enough, and also, many phrases are too POV... Check the article for yourself, and you'll see what I mean :) NuclearFunk
Norwegian and Danish
I propose dividing up this article into the separate Norwegian and Danish phenomena, as almost the only connection seems to be their history (and that's more than a hundred years ago...). Russ (Norwegian) (or just Russ, after all, this is what the article is mainly about now) and Russ (Danish). If no one opposes, I might even get around to doing this one day.

Agreed. It would also allow better division of the russ phenomena in Norway; main entires should be something like uniform (overalls, cars), behaviour (for knot rules, compulsary parties, ceremonies) and paraphenelia (cards, paper). Any better word for the behavioural bit than "behaviour"? King Gard of Gardistan 21:11, 13 May 2005
