Talk:Boar's Head Carol

For the past 30 years, Concordia University, in Ann Arbor, Michigan has had an event based on the Boar's Head Feast in its chapel. I figure that this is worth adding to the article.messor 14:48, 30 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Lack of sources edit

The Modern processions section is almost completely unsourced. The majority of the entries relate to small local events that were no doubt known to to their respective editors when they were added years ago. I've tagged the entire section as needing sources, and am proposing to clear it out over the next few weeks. MichaelMaggs (talk) 12:52, 4 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

I've now removed those remaining unsourced and incorrectly sourced entries in the "As at 2008" list that haven't had a source added in the four months since the the section was tagged. MichaelMaggs (talk) 16:08, 21 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Unsourced Anonymous Edits From 2007 edit

This article originally copied the Lyrics section from Reference #1 in the reflist here:

Later in 2007, one anonymous edit changed several parts of the lyrics without adding any new references:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Boar%27s_Head_Carol&type=revision&diff=177277640&oldid=176940574

Would it be reasonable now to revert those changes in the absence of any supporting sources? Miqrogroove (talk) 16:41, 27 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Yes it would. Also, as mentioned in the section above, the totally unsourced stuff needs to go. MichaelMaggs (talk) 20:46, 27 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

I double checked and there was a reference from reed.edu that closely matches the 2007 edits, however the reference was dated December 2010. It's unclear if Reed copied Wikipedia? Miqrogroove (talk) 19:07, 28 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
