Talk:Young Dubliners

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

this reads too much like an advertisement--Irish rover 10:53, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, but its enthusiasm is fun (I realize that's not the purpose of encyclopedia entries, however, and I guess at some point this one will be rewritten in encyclopedia format). I heard the band on Radio Paradise just tonight for the first time and enjoyed the song very much, and just for fun, I have made a few trivial improvements to the article that do not change or add any facts.Songflower 01:51, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

still, this needs some serious work. opinions are not what is needed on wikipedia.Irish rover 04:59, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

I fixed it up a little, still needs some work. Maybe we can make pages about their albums?Irish rover 00:17, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Wouldn't it be a better idea to just start over, using the current text as a guideline? I think it's quite difficult to restructure this block of text. Maybe have an intro and then sections on the history of the band, the band members, a discography and at least a link to their official website? I don't know a lot about the band, but I would be willing to give it a go, make at least the basic set-up. --DutchECK 09:01, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

I almost completely rewrote the page. I used the text that was already present as the basis, but I trimmed nearly all of the trivia and fan-like items. I also added an infobox. The result is a beginning entry, I think. There's some information, but there could definitely be more. So do add to this! --DutchECK 17:55, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
