Why are the categories specific to California?[edit]

Why are the categories specific to California? This event has been observed at the University of Washington in Seattle at least since 1997, and as I understand it the observance is national, not specific to any state. Am I missing something? - Jmabel | Talk 08:15, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Cause I couldnt find refs for other states. since its not every state, it should be categorized by each state its in. its not really national, in the sense that each state participates. I dont even know if any states officially participate. please add states as refs are found.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 07:47, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what you were looking for by way of references, but I've now fleshed out the article considerably. This observance began in Washington state and spread a few months later to Oregon. I believe it only later came to California, so if you don't object I'd really like to get the emphasis on California out of the lede. - Jmabel | Talk 06:07, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please do. i probably just dont have your skills at finding news articles.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 03:53, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Other states[edit]

I'm sure more could be found. This was about 30 minutes work. - Jmabel | Talk 06:24, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sad irony[edit]
