[edit] External Links and Articles

I added a section for links to external news articles on the QMU and related material. Thought i'd post a discussion here on what should be included so as to avoid any conflict of interest.

[edit] Membership Figures

Note for whoever keeps on changing the membership figures:

This year the QMU's membership stands at over 7500, last year just a shade over 7000 and the year before 6700. Therefore, a reasonable approximation of the membership is 7000.

- The current membership figure is actually closer to 8000 this year (checked yesterday), only a hundred or so off. Jmchale 11:59, 1 June 2006 (UTC) -

[edit] BoM Photo

Regarding the photo of the outgoing Board of Management, would it be possible to get it fixed and have the copyright info sorted? SeumasS 21:35, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

I dont think it is that good an addition to the article. I'd rather see more of the building or a historical photo. --cloudo 08:27, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. A historical picture in particular would be interesting. --Stween 12:23, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The qmunicate homophobic & anti-semetic problem

I have reverted previous edits to personally attack Joe Evans with non cited information. I also reverted an edit by PresidentGary which had removed it completely. I think this is one of the few interesting things in that ridiculously large section has in it. There is cited info in there now. What are the grounds for removing it completley?

I don't think the comments are totally fair - The printing of the anti-semitic comment did happen, and was immediatly apologised for and action taken. The "homophobic comment" was actually a film quote taken out of context, and to call it a homophobic comment seems to miss this point, which was the basic explaination for why it appeared there. I think including this information without any surrounding explaination fails to do justice to the situation at the time - Jamie McHale 12/11
