In 2012, Pope Benedict XVI gave faculty to the Episcopal Conferences, to insert the above mentioned Feast in their own liturgical calendars on the Thursday after Pentecost.

England was among the first to adhere: https://www.liturgyoffice.org.uk/Calendar/Sanctoral/OLJC-full.pdf

Italy simply maintained a votive Mass, without any particular date.

How should we deal with this? Should we take care of the logic in the core LitCalAPI.php script, and just activate it with a flag as a new setting that Episcopal Conferences can set? This would mean that the translation string would get picked up centrally and would practically require every translation to deal with it, even when the festivity is not celebrated. Perhaps that is not ideal.

Is there a way to make it as simple as activating a flag, and yet only require it to be translated when the flag is activated? Maybe add a translators comment that says it can be ignored if the Episcopal Conference has not inserted the Feast in their calendar?

It could be dealt with by simply defining it in the calendar data for each Episcopal Conference that has inserted it, but at the same time being a generally widespread festivity shared by a number of nations / Episcopal Conferences it would seem that it would make sense to make it as simple as a yes / no option...
