Talk:Turlough (lake)

message: There's a Turlough in Wales too according ot the Llandovery article
* There's an unsigned edit from 21 May 2008 that adds into the introduction the idea of translation as loch being incorrect. I think the previous (to 21 May) version was simpler, objective and more likely to be accurate. Does anyone else agree or can the claim that lach should be taken as 'place' be substantiated?

thread_title:  External links modified (January 2018) 

message: The preceding exchange (Article originally taken from an information sheet?) revealed that most of this article has been copied from an information sheet published by ENFO. The questionable material was introduced in 2006  here, by  who has not been active for several years. The ENFO article is undated, but the text was added here with the reference "ENFO information sheet on Turloughs available at ENFO, St. Andrew Street, Dublin 2,Ireland.", which makes it clear in which direction the copying occurred. There is no free license shown on the ENFO document.
The sections from 'Seasonal pools' to 'Draining of turloughs' are almost completely copied from this source, and have no cited sources. I will delete these sections, and after waiting for a response here I plan to propose revision deletion to redact the offending content.
Please expand the article in your own words from reliable sources. Verbcatcher (talk) 00:44, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I have found the text of the ENFO document archived here. A copyvio comparison tool shows the extent of the match. Verbcatcher (talk) 01:32, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
thread_title: Copyright violation

message: the page does not describe it accurately. "disappearing lake" appears to suggest a lake people can't reliably find but it isn't clear if the water vanishes, if the lake floods beyond its banks and is lost, or if the lake shifts around as the water table shifts, and all of these are my inference, not clearly implied by the only descriptive term used (for all I know it's a mere optical illusion caused by light off water or some kind of over-aggressive reed growth). Article is therefore of extremely limited use. 2A02:C7E:75B:6000:852C:EE5C:AA8C:2967 (talk) 20:04, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I encourage you to expand the article. You may be able to make use of the source whose content was improperly copy-and-pasted into an earlier version of this article, as discussed in two sections above. Verbcatcher (talk) 03:03, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
