I recall Michael Ossipoff suggested a seasonal calendar in which the year has 14 months 12 of which had 4 weeks each and two had 2 weeks each and one month gets an extra week in a leap year.


Ossipoff replies: Yes, but I discarded those explicitly terrestrial-seasonal proposals because:

. 1. They'd be considerably inconvenient with regard to payment-periods. .


.

2. Their season-names and structure have no chance of acceptance in the current world.


.

So now my only propsosals are South-Solstice WeekDate and South-Solstice Equal 28-Day Months.

.

Of those, South-Solstice WeekDate is my main and favorite proposal. (...though ISO WeekDate is acceptable and probably more adoptable now.) .

Duplication of Year Start Rule[]

The same year start rule is explicitly written on this page and also the South-Solstice WeekDate Calendar page. It would be better if the Year Start rule were put on a separate page linked from both these pages Karl Palmen (talk) 19:30, January 27, 2019 (UTC)


Ossipoff replies:

Though that would slightly reduce the amount of text at the website, I feel that it's more important that the year-start rule be shown at each of those 2 pages, without someone having to click on something.

The year-start rule is an essential and integral part of both proposals, and needs to be a built-in part of each of those pages.

A link to elsewhere is, in my perception, for something that's a footnote, or a reference to something else.  ...not for something that's an essential part of the page.

6 M  (South-Solstice WeekDate)

5M  (ISO WeekDate (but not with ISO format) )

Dua  Week 2  Monday (South-Solstice Equal 28-Day Months)

(My long name for that latter proposal is intended to tell a non-calendarist what the calendar is intended to achieve.)


I like the image of the calendar for a month, but, because I don't number the days as days of the month, shouldn't the calendar month image not have day-of-month numbering?
