Talk:Irish poetry

message: In case there's any mystification, Irish poetry was right to begin with, since it's a general term, while Irish Poetry is a proper name. We would only use "Irish Poetry" for a band, album, book, etc. Stan 14:21, 6 Nov 2003 (UTC)

message: I saw Irish Poetry on the front page, so, i added information about the irish poet i do know about, Robert D. Joyce. I know him cuz Dead Can Dance did a number on irish songs in their Into the Labyrinth album. If you know any more info, i'd be appreciated. Thanks. Project2501a 02:02, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

message: Do these articles get downgraded on the brain-dead but trendy "second album" or "film sequel" basis - or is there some more objective reason? (Sarah777 22:14, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This article got nominated for a Featured Article Review that took place here. The FAR was noted by me on the Irish Wikpedians notice board on November 19 with additional comments about the lack of people interested in Irish FAs on the talk page the same day thought few editors seem really interested in maintaining Irish quality articles. If you have Irish literature knowledge it would be great to get someone else involved in George Moore right now as that might still be rescued before [Wikipedia:Featured article review/George Moore (novelist)|the FAR]] closes. If we could avoid that demotion, then we can try to get this back up to par.  ww2censor 00:20, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sadly, science and geography, politics, history - these are the things I know something about; literature ain't my strong point; it's down there with religion! But I do wonder how so many FAs can have deteriorated since their heyday. I have acute antenna for intellectual trendiness (bad) and believe in the superiority of populism in the field of entertainment (where, of course, literature resides).

replies: text: These are the demoted Irish FAs: Celtic tiger · Donegal fiddle tradition · Economy of Ireland · Éire · Irish theatre · Irish poetry · President of Ireland · Ryanair. Maybe one of these is up your alley. If so let me know and I will try to help re-promote it thought, like the assessment team we really need to reactivate the Irish featured article drive. ww2censor 03:51, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Might have a shot at Celtic tiger. But I can't see any commentary explaining why it was demoted and specifically what is required to restore it. Without such guidance I'd as likely ruin it further as improve it. Any tips? (Sarah777 12:55, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Found it! HERE. I can see what they are getting at; the article wasn't being maintained, links dying etc. (Sarah777 13:01, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

message: This is a pastiche of an article that needs a major rewrite. Virtually nothing in the text is referenced. The twentieth century sections seem to have adisconnect between the importance of individual poets and the amount of space devoted to them.Cathar11 (talk) 03:34, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

message: The lead mentions two languages, but shouldn't it mention a third, Hiberno-Latin? —Srnec (talk) 17:56, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Latin 

message: I have given the section on the twentieth century a fairly severe pruning, given the amount of superfluous information and the generally subjective tone. The links to various poets should supply all the further information that is necessary about the individuals in question. I have also added a number of references. Further work may be necessary. 
I shall also devote some attention to preceding sections.

thread_title:  Cut and additions 

message: Shouldn't the article, especially the lede, address the ambiguity of the term "Irish poet"? That is it that includes poets from both the Republic of Ireland and from Northern Ireland; any poet writing in the Island of Ireland, whatever their nationality. Furthermore, does this article sufficiently articulate the political situation? Rwood128 (talk) 20:22, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

I found several plagiarized quotations from what appears to be an e-book, Poetry Kaleidoscope by Nicolae Sfetcu. There may be more. Rwood128 (talk) 18:15, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: It suddenly struck me that I might have it round the wrong way – could parts of this, and possibly other, Wikipedia articles have been incorporated into the e-book? Rwood128 (talk) 22:53, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm feeling foolish, because it does appear that Poetry Kaleidoscope by Nicolae Sfetcu may well be a compilation based on Wikipedia. I compared "Old English literature", and found similar examples as with "Irish Poetry". I will revert my edits shortly. Rwood128 (talk) 23:49, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
