Does this list include ladies football and camogie? --Eamonnca1 TALK 22:53, 13 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

It would be helpful if knowledgeable editors could add GFC, HC, LGFC, CC or GAC after clubs (spelling out at first mention in each county). Brocach (talk) 22:56, 4 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Shortening of article edit

To aid readers when viewing this massively long article I've added columns, however for some reason it doesn't seem to work when I use them for Dublin GAA, Donegal GAA, or Down GAA, so they are still as they were.

Might make sense to split this article up on a provincial basis to help reduce the length? Mabuska (talk) 18:49, 16 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

With the addition of columns, the article is much improved. It's more useful to have all the clubs in a single article. Part of the problem with Dublin is that it departs from the format for other counties by giving precise details of each club's catchment area, even when there's a link to an article on that club. Would anyone mind if I took out that info at least for the linked clubs? Brocach (talk) 19:01, 16 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
Useful maybe, but not handy for readers. If there is a website giving the information then the website should suffice for a list of clubs, which should after all remain a list not a street directory. The column problem is that it lists the column number for some reason and nothing in the list. Mabuska (talk) 19:04, 16 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
Yes, I had a go at the columns myself, can't see any obvious reason why it won't work for those few cases. But please keep this as a single article: it's easy enough to navigate. On Dublin, I'll give it a few days to see if anyone objects. Brocach (talk) 19:22, 16 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
Donegal now in columns, Down still resisting. Brocach (talk) 12:33, 17 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Dublin and Down now in 4 columns. The problem was to do with some complex web addresses - I just deleted or shortened them. Brocach (talk) 18:54, 2 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
