''Paschal'' already indicates that the greeting is related to ''Pascha''. It seems to me it would make more sense (in terms of a good sentence structure) simply to link ''Paschal'' to the [[Pascha]] article. Or is there a wikipedia thing against that? --[[User:Basil|Basil]] 11:04, 19 Jan 2005 (CST)

:  I don't think there's a "thing" against it, but in terms of form, it doesn't quite seem right for the main "title phrase" (so to speak) of an article to link to another article.  At least, it's not what I've seen elsewhere.  (You know, wikipedic oral tradition.)  :)  I'll futz with the sentence to make it prettier, though.  --[[User:ASDamick|Rdr.

Fixed the Sanskrit greeting. The verb root they want is utthaa, not upasthaa (which means "arrive" or "come near"). Fixed the sandhi, too. I also think it should be Khrista:, not Krista:, but I didn't change that. The greeting is wrong on every page on the internet that quotes this list or that this list is based on. --[[User:Gzthompson|Gzthompson]] 04:19, April 25, 2008 (UTC)
