Programmers' Day → Programmer's Day — Correct title in Russian of an official holiday: День программиста - singular not plural. Dzied Bulbash (talk) 00:38, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As often, Russian and English idiom differs. The English text of Medvedev's declaration uses the possessive plural, as is English custom; this honors all programmers, not each person his own programmer. If you think it important, add the difference in idiom to the article. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 15:44, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, the official English sources use the term "Programmers' Day", so that it should be. Since the correct Russian spelling is also provided in the article, it should be enough. --Koveras ^☭ 05:51, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
