http://www.tamireland.ie/box-clever/tv-basics/share-and-reach==A subset of the UK market==
While the intro was perhaps too North America heavy (note it's author, me, is an Australian), I still feel something needs to be said about the Irish TV market effectively being a subset of the UK market, and why this is the case.
The situation in Ireland is similar to that in Canada, and those familiar with the Canadian situation (and not with the Irish one) would benefit from the mentioning of this simularity.

thread_title: Most-viewed channels by broadcaster (IRL)

message: I've added a bit about RTÉ News Now under the forthcomming stations section, but does anyone think it should be included in the box detailing existing RoI stations, or should it be kept for stations that are currently received on television? Donegal92 (talk) 20:16, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Not sure. It is available on DTT. But weather they will keep it when DTT is launched is another question. IrishTV (talk) 14:05, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  RTÉ News Now 

message: I have added a new article Cable Television in Ireland, please let me know what you think, thanks IrishTV (talk) 15:40, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Cable Television in Ireland

message: This article needs to be changed to make it clear when it is talking about the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Living in Ireland myself, I even get confused reading the text! Ireland can mean either the Republic of Ireland or the island itself (which includes both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland). Northern Ireland is part of the UK (and hence TV is regulated under UK law, they get the BBC, get UK Freeview, pay UK TV licensing fees etc..) whilst the Republic of Ireland (Ireland (English) or Eire (Irish)) is a separate sovereign state.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.27.106.173 (talk) 00:18, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Naming

message: I propose to split this article into a Television Northern Ireland and Televison in Ireland as both countries have different channels almost and television is not an All-Ireland thing C. 22468 (talk) 20:11, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Split 

message: I'd like to float the idea of creating some Years in Irish television articles, along similar lines to the ones relating to American, British and Canadian television. Basically this would involve listing important television events for each year, significant programmes which were on air, channels which came into existence, and so on. I collated together lots of stuff on British television for those articles a couple of years ago, and it has grown into a useful reference so I think the same could happen here. My proposal is to focus on events in the Republic, but Northern Ireland could be included as well if there is consensus for that. I'd be interested to hear any thoughts people may have on this, and if there are no major objections I'll make a start on this in a few weeks. Cheers Paul MacDermott (talk) 12:55, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually there is one already, 1976 in Irish television which was created in 2005, so there shouldn't be a problem. I'll still hold off for a while before doing any others though just in case anyone does want to comment. Paul MacDermott (talk) 12:59, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: And though that article lacks information, I'm sure some can be added. A timeline of events relating to Broadcasting suggests at least two related events for 1976. Paul MacDermott (talk) 13:03, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Think I'm going to make a start, especially as we have one of these already. Paul MacDermott (talk) 13:02, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: All articles now created. Will continue to expand them over the coming weeks, but feel free to help. Paul MacDermott (talk) 22:22, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Years in Irish television 

message: The article refers to future implementation dates that are now a year or more in the past. These require to be updated, stating the actual dates achieved, of which I have no knowledge. GilesW (talk) 00:07, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
