[edit] IRA

Which IRA was this guy a member of? I think it's safe to assume the PIRA, but could it have been the OIRA? Pauric 00:56, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

There does seem to be continuing confusion over which organisation he was in, with a number of edits changing it. This is the best I can find: "Michael Gaughan was one of the first Provisional IRA members to be imprisoned in England." [1]. But it's not exactly an authoritative source. I would suggest that anybody changing, or reverting, his membership leave a comment asking for references and directing to the talk page. I would guess PIRA for the time being. How about putting in a {{citation}} ? Aaron McDaid (talk - contribs) 09:09, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Seems like sound reasoning to me. Pauric 17:27, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
