Suggestions

Hello! I notice you adding some useful lists of people and so forth to Kilkenny (and perhaps others). You might want to consider making them links rather than just text: Saint Kieran rather than Saint Kieran. Even if the article doesn't exist yet, it's better for the future to have the links there. Welcome to Wikipedia :) Stevage 14:00, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Kilkenny Cats

I've added more facts and tidied up the entry to make it more readable. You might like to look at other entries to get the feel of how entries look. There are people who look for short/uninspiring entries and flag them for deletion. And we Cats don't want our entry being deleted! Jm butler 13:35, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Your edits to Dara

Hi, regarding your edits to the mentioned article, please add this information in a disambiguation page.

Dara is a "First Name", used mainly in Ireland. It is derived from the Irish word for "Oak Tree". As a pre-Christian name, it is becoming popular as people see it as a way to mark the unique heritage of the Irish Celts. It may be used as a Male or Female first name and there are several variations of the spelling; Darragh, Daire.

The word 'Dara' definitely is more widely used as a transliteration to the name of the Syrian city Daraa, than as the usage specified in your edits. Thanks. Asabbagh 05:31, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Ballingarry Coal Mines

A tag has been placed on Ballingarry Coal Mines requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Kanturk

You re-insertion of a name under "People of note" without a link telling more about the person has been a problem in the past because then a whole lot of "fun" names got added, messing up the page. I removed all of them some time ago and the messing stopped. I would appeal to you to either write up Paddy's biography, or remove him. There is no point in having someone in there "of note" who is anonymous, it will only provoke renewed vandalism. Hope you understand me, I have nothing against the Sheehans, being one myself from the town. But I would ask Paddy to either out himself or be deleted again, sorry. (This is something like the situation above). Greetings Osioni (talk) 16:02, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Neferhotep I

There is absolutely no relationship between a king of Ancient Egypt and Scotland/Ireland. Neferhotep I ruled deep in the 18th century BC in Egypt when there was No possibility of contact between Egypt with Scotland. The furthest distance any Ancient Egyptian objects travelled in the Ancient World was to Morocco (where one or two objects naming Apophis were found) or Turkey---certainly not Ireland or scotland which is separated from mainland Europe. You are not talking about the Medieval period when the Knights Templar and Richard the Lionheart travelled to the Holy Land in the 12/13th century AD. No serious Egyptologist, would dream of making such a claim. This is WP:FRINGE. I would add that your article on Scotia's Grave is unsourced and unverifiable. Leoboudv (talk) 21:25, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

July 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Neferhotep I, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. I see another editor has already commented on this. Doug Weller (talk) 16:34, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Scotia's Grave. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Contact me if you need assistance adding references. Thank you. Hi, please don't keep adding stuff to this article unless you have citations to go along with your edits. There is no evidence for a grave there, so although the title can call it a grave, in the article we can't talk about a grave as though there really was one there. The bit about the culverts is interesting but not sourced, and the stuff about Irish mythology needs specific sources which I will probably provide this week. Doug Weller (talk) 08:07, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Irish Oak

Please can you add a ref for the info about the second Irish Oak. We are pushing this for GA status and unreferenced statements jeopardise this. I note that you have previously been warned about inserting unreferenced info into articles. Please read WP:CITE for information about how to reference sources if you are unsure how to do this. Mjroots (talk) 10:47, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

If this is how to reply, my response is simply that I copied the details from my seaman's discharge book having sailed on the ship as an engineer. I could suggest looking at the Signal in-house publication of Irish Shipping which is referenced on the site. I only state known facts and well established local lore which is sometimes hard to tie down to meet the standards of "academic certainity"

I have started many articles which have been followed up and completed by others. I have added much detail in places. (FYI; If English is not your native language, I should point out that "WARNED" is a word that carries an amount of "implied aggresson". There are softer ways of saying the same thing!

Scota and Scotia

Spanish Armada and Fenit

Hi. I left a reply to your January message - I don't visit so often these days.

The book I was relying on is out of print - here's a quick google link: http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/history/spanish_armada.htm

Subject headings

I've been doing some clean-up passes on your Patrick P. O'Carroll article, and I notice that you took the time to switch the section headings from Title Case to ALL CAPS. For a future note, actually neither is correct. Per the Wikipedia Manual of Style, "Capitalize the first letter of the first word and any proper nouns in headings, but leave the rest in lower case (Rules and regulations, not Rules and Regulations)." Just thought that might save you a bit of time in the future. --Nat Gertler (talk) 15:38, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Europe's most westerly ports.

The most westerly country in Europe is Iceland, not Ireland. Any of Iceland's major ports is further west than Fenit.--Dmol (talk) 22:11, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Are you still editing the list of winners? I've reformatted it into a table, hope that doesn't cause a conflict with any edits you're making. Thanks. --Eamonnca1 (talk) 01:21, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

O'Carroll

Finitharbour, the above article is very badly written. I'm giving you, as the main creator, notice of my intention to drasticly revise it on a par with Mac Maoláin, Ó Siadhail, and Ó Flaithbertaigh. It has plenty of information but very badly stated, brining what could be a very fine article down several steps. Is mise, Fergananim (talk) 13:34, 11 July 2011 (UTC).

Proposed deletion of Dingle Marina

The article Dingle Marina has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No significant coverage in RS

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Speedy deletion nomination of Annaghs Castle

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Annaghs Castle requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Neverbuffed (talk) 23:22, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

Annaghs Castle moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Annaghs Castle, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. New articles generally need at least two (but preferably more) references from reliable sources that are independent of the subject that discuss the subject with significant coverage (trivial mentions do not contribute to notability).^{(See Rule 42)} Information that can't be referenced to reliable sources should be removed from the draft because verifiability is necessary for information added to Wikipedia.
I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of Draft: before the article title) where you can work on the article with minimal disruption from other users while you improve it.
When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready to be published, you can move it back to the article space yourself. However, I recommend that instead of moving it yourself that you follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template that I have added to the page. This submits the article to be reviewed by experienced editors that specialize in helping new editors write their first articles. — Insertcleverphrasehere ^{(or here)}_{(click me!)} 23:24, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Borodale
