Talk:Ireland's Greatest

Ireland's Greatest Person

I had created Ireland's Greatest Person before I found the existing page. I've merged the content from there to here, as "Ireland's Greatest" appears to be the actual programme title. I trimmed some of the previous content; it doesn't seem notable that a local newspaper notes which locals have made the list. jnestorius^(talk) 07:59, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Someone has been vandalising this page and inserting new names. The correct list of 40 is here: http://www.independent.ie/woman/celeb-news/irelands-greatest-rtes-top-40-26648777.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by MarkHumphrysIreland (talk • contribs) 11:37, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

RTE Greatest Irishman 2001

and I think it was Irishman not Irish person. But anyway TK Whitaker won that poll but doesn't seem to feature in 2010 - can 9 years make such a difference ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.96.74.49 (talk) 21:21, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

This page is being actively vandalized. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.122.250.124 (talk) 02:54, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
