Additional Information and Edits made to the Celebrations in other countries section

Under the header Bastille Day celebrations in other countries, I reformatted the section from a bullet-point list to sub-header sections. This change was made to make it easier to see which countries celebrate Bastille Day outside of France. I added more detailed information about each countries' celebration, to give a more cohesive understanding of how Bastille Day is celebrated around the world. I also added a section about the celebration of the holiday in Tahiti. Under the United States section, I edited the format so that the information about each states' celebration was in paragraph form under a sub-header of their location within the United States. These edits were made to make the section easier to read and add more information about the different celebrations themselves. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rcadieux22 (talk • contribs) 15:06, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Misunderstanding of French

Can someone fix this please? Not true: Homme with an uppercase h meaning "human", while homme with a lowercase h means "man" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:19B:C700:6650:C492:9872:DA20:5358 (talk) 18:35, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
