message: I recently updated, tidied and added some references to the Sport section of the Ireland article. :) --Candlewicke (Talk) 17:24, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It still seems a bit overcrowded though when a lot of the information could be contained in its own article. But removing some of the information may prove controversial. Which sports should be represented or how should they be represented? --Candlewicke (Talk) 17:28, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

message: An Ireland disambiguation task force (WP:IDTF) has been created. It will: free up various Talk pages for their respective articles, avoid inner and cross article repetition, avoid debate-postponing moratoriums from needing to be placed, and can accommodate all aspects of the issue of disambiguating the word "Ireland". --Matt Lewis (talk) 04:29, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I am hoping some members can take a look at the Francis Bacon page.  Bacon was born in Ireland, the child of an Australian father and an Irish mother, all grandparents were English.  He was raised in Ireland till age 16 when he ran away to London.  He is listed on Wikipedia as a British artist, which I am disputing.  My arguements are listed here.

message: A recent edit to Millvina Dean suggests that following her death the residue of the Millvina fund is going to RNLI, and Irish National Lifeboat Institute. A quick google shows no INLI, and according to the International Life Saving Federation, the RNLI provides the lifeboat service for the Republic. I am not editing out the reference to Irish lifeboats, as the information must have come from somewhere, can someone with any knowledge from Ireland please look at the page? thanks (Hope this is the right place to ask the question - sorry if i've gone the wrong way round.)  thanks --IdreamofJeanie (talk) 23:03, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

message: There are no subcategories in :Category:Irish people by time period apart from those for the Medieval and Elizabethan periods.

message: WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.
As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals.  So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely,      — The Transhumanist    07:34, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

message: The topic of the portal is the island of Ireland. Using the term "Sister portal" would suggest that there is a separate island called "Northern Ireland".
Northern Ireland is listed frequently on the page and under "Related portals", so it's discoverability should not be impacted.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cashew.wheel (talk • contribs) 15:51, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
