Pidakala War
- ... that the Pidakala War is a cow dung fight held every year?
- reviewed: 1978 Avon International Marathon
- comment: i am admittedly not sure how accurate "every year" needs to be. the festival is considered a yearly tradition, but i do not know if any year has ever been skipped. i believe sources tend to state that it has been held every year without explicitly stating that there has been no interruption. notably, it was held in 2021, during the pandemic, which drew much criticism online.

Overall: This is something that can benefit from an image. Do you think you can find one that can be used on Wikipedia? If not, that's fine too. Alaexis¿question? 07:26, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Dying: please let me know if you can find an image - if not I'll approve the nomination as is. Alaexis¿question? 07:16, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
- Alaexis, i agree, it would be nice if there was an image of the fight to include in this article, but unfortunately, i was unable to find one on commons. i had considered using images of the gods, but sources seem to refer to them differently, and i do not know enough about them to be able to tell if the illustrations i would select are actually appropriate depictions. in any case, i have now added links to two pictures and a video to try to help readers get a better sense of the festival. please let me know if there is anything else i should address. dying (talk) 18:29, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, in that case . Alaexis¿question? 20:37, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
