thread_title:  Anyone got a photo? 

message: From first paragraph of Comedic style "We sent a team to ask him where did he get his inspiration for his comedy". This would imply to me that some of the page may have been plagerised, although googling the term only leads here. Anyone know who wrote it originaly/want to go through the edit history until they find them to double check? Eccentricned (talk) 23:54, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: nm, it was a fairly recent anon edit. I'm going to remove it until someone finds the original source to add as a citationEccentricned (talk) 23:56, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Plagiarism? 

message: It says Ardal blamed Tommy for Dermot's death, but there is no valid source for this.  The paragraph clearly reads that the producers wanted to keep re-shooting the scene, not Tommy.  I doubt Ardal would blame Tommy for such a thing when the producers wanted to keep retaking it.  So what? are we to believe that Ardal thinks Dermot Morgan is dead because Tommy couldn't look depressed enough for the scene?  I think the quote is complete BS.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.131.138.154 (talk) 23:00, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Controversy 

message: An anon keeps removing sourced information - , calling any restoration of the information vandalism.  I never heard of Tommy Tiernan, so I have no idea what the problem is here, but I don't think sourced info should be removed without discussion, especially by anonymous IP editors.

replies: text: True - the article has been prone to vandalism by people altering existing sentences or removing sourced material - I've restored some deleted material.Autarch (talk) 21:48, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Removal of sourced material

message: Note: WP:RS says that self-published media—whether books, newsletters, personal websites, open wikis, blogs, personal pages on social networking sites, Internet forum postings, or tweets—are largely not acceptable and Self-published sources should never be used as third-party sources about living persons, even if the author is a well-known professional researcher or writer; see WP:BLP#Reliable sources.The latter also points to WP:SELFPUB. Since Tommy Tiernan is controversial and his blog is self-published, it must be cited very carefully or not at all.Autarch (talk) 21:57, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

message: WP:TALK says The purpose of a Wikipedia talk page (accessible via the discussion tab) is to provide space for editors to discuss changes to its associated article or project page. Article talk pages should not be used by editors as platforms for their personal views on a subject - so saying that he's the funniest man alive or that he isn't a comedian are not suitable for the talk page.Autarch (talk) 21:47, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Talk page guidelines - a reminder 

message: The second paragraph of Comedic style reads In Nov 1997 Tommy appeared for the first time on RTE’s famous ‘The Late Late Show’. As a result of some material about “the Lamb of God”, a group of protestors gathered outside the RTE studios after the show and a record number of complaints were made.[citation needed] As a result Tommy was accused of blasphemy in the Irish Senate.[citation needed] As a result of this and numerous other Late Late appearances, record amounts of complaints and bans from appearing Tommy has been christened ‘the most controversial comedian in Ireland’.[citation needed]. In [https://www.tommytiernan.com/biog/ the biography on his blog, the same paragraph appears - clearly a copy and paste job. I'll remove the paragraph.Autarch (talk) 21:07, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
