Thanks! (Sarah777 07:18, 23 March 2007 (UTC))

- What was wrong with this; "The flag has similarities with the more ancient provincial flag of Ulster. This flag combines the emblem of the O'Neills of Tyrone (the red hand) with that of the Norman de Burgos (a red cross on a gold field) - the house to which the earldom of Ulster belonged until 1333 when the last de Burgo earl died."

[edit] PIRA

Can you please warn CreativeLogic to stop making unreferenced material to articles.--Vintagekits 19:38, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

What utter rubbish both of you - and stop trying to recruit people in a campaign against me Vintagekits. As to the edit you made on my talk page claiming that the article in the Indie is not about the IRA, all I can say is, can you read? I quote from the article directly "The IRA operation is said to be under the control of the IRA's reputed chief of staff, Thomas "Slab" Murphy, a quiet South Armagh farmer who is regarded as the organisation's financial mastermind."

Can I please remind you again about WP:CIVIL, no one is campaigning against you and no one is ganging up against you. I asked P3UK to have a word with you about as you didnt seem to listen to me and throught you might listen to another editor. That obviously seems to be wrong. --Vintagekits 20:00, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes the article is about Slab Murphy, but the references to Drug dealing and rackeetering etc is by Loyalists.--padraig3uk 20:02, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Old IRA page

Thanks for your work reverting vandalism here. I tried to get it protected, but my request was turned down because apparently there was not enough vandalism! I really think that wikipedia needs to be tougher on this area. It's not acceptable that people have to revert an article every day to stop it degenerating into mush.

They should at least semi-protect the article to prevent anon users from vandalising articles.--padraig3uk 11:09, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, well that's what I argued, but I was told you need to have ten reverts a day or something. See for yourself, [1] Madness! Jdorney 11:22, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sinn Féin

I've reorganised the page quite a bit, as the older version had the history split in half for some obscure reason, let me know what you think. Thanks. One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 16:22, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

I've nothing against that, just it was slightly too drastic for me to start splitting pages without discussion. I'm assuming you mean everything pre-1970 in one article? If anything what I'm most tempted to split off the article are the huge lists of representatives. I still think some sections need moving and/or merging, but again that's something needing discussion. One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 16:37, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

The lists of elected representatives could be split off into a seperate article, with just the small list of each type and number in the main article with a link to the separate article.--padraig3uk 16:50, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
