Talk:Zakharan calendar

In-Universe
I like seeing articles like this; thanks, Artemas!

I'd really like to see this article use comparisons to the Calendar of Harptos instead of to real-world Gregorian months. Is it possible to make that conversion? Are these direct conversions? or approximations? That is, is Taraq exactly equivalent to January? (How could it be? It's not even the same planet.)

There is also a lot of information lacking. Does the Zakharan calendar use a lunar calendar? or solar calendar? Do the the months have varying lengths? or the same length? How do they sub-divide the months? weeks? tendays? something else? What happens in a leap year? ~ Lhynard (talk) 18:24, May 11, 2015 (UTC)

I got the calendar conversion from Zakharan months to Earth months from the back of one of the cards that comes with the Corsairs of the Great Sea boxed set. It just simply listed the Zakharan months and their real-world counterparts. We could definitely change the real-world months to match the Harptos calendar if you think it would make the page better. Just let me know. Artemas Entreri (talk) 18:58, May 11, 2015 (UTC)

I'll expand the page to address some of your questions from your second paragraph as well. Artemas Entreri (talk) 18:59, May 11, 2015 (UTC)
