Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- If I understand it correctly, *and* if Wikipedia has it correctly, there is no such specific thing as "the Iranian Calendar", but a group of different "Iranian Calendars" [1]. Jalali was one of them [2], and it was *not* implemented in Excel, but Solar Hijri calendar [3] - another calendar, different from Jalali - was [4] (which was mixed with Jalali in the article/question). In LibreOffice, there is support for various calendars [5]; it lists "Hijri", but AFAIK, it is the Lunar Hijri (Islamic calendar) [6]. So the questions here are: 1. Which specific calendar should be supported out of the different calendars? What I wrote was just an outsider's speculations based on some googling. A reference to the exact authoritative algorithm how it is calculated would be great. 2. Should the MS syntax for the extended codes be adopted? 3. Correct existing mentions of Hijri in out documentation to refer to Lunar Hijri.
