message: In future, please try to incorporate additional material into the existing article. 
Just explaining my alterations to your edit:
*At present, the community of believers or Ummah in Ireland is one of the most diverse in Europe
:Where is the evidence for this?
* Khutbah from Imam Hussein based on Immigrant Council of Irelands', "Labour Migration into Ieland", 2003, p. 5-6 and 11
*though there are more people from a South Asian background than any other.  
:could we have statistics and hard evidence to back this up?--Damac 16:29, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  similarities between Catholicism and Islam? 

message: I just deleted the following block of text from Dublin Mosque, as it wasn't relevant to that page. It lacks references and doesn't quite have an encyclopedic tone, but maybe some of it could be useful here: 
:The first trickle of Muslims arrived in Ireland in the early 1950s. Initially, they came for education, especially to study medicine at the famous Royal College of Surgeons in Dublin. Perhaps the Muslim students from the Republic of South Africa were the first to arrive in Ireland for this purpose. Students then followed from India, Malaysia and the Gulf states. In the 1970s a number of trainees in aircraft engineering came to Ireland from Algeria, Libya, Saudi Arabia and Malaysia. When a number of students decided to reside in this country for work, and with the arrival of a number of Muslim businessmen and traders from the U.K., the first resident Muslim community in Ireland was formed. For many years the community was relatively small. According to the Irish census for 1991 the number of Muslims was 3,873. Since 1991 the number of Muslims increased considerably after the arrival of Muslim refugees from Bosnia, Somalia and Kosovo, as well as asylum seekers and professionals and workers from various Islamic countries. There is a still a good number of students mainly from Malaysia, the Gulf states and Pakistan. There are an estimated number of 2,000 medical doctors. The rest are businessmen, professionals, workers, asylum seekers, children, housewives and others. There is a number of Irish Muslims who accepted Islam and some European Muslims. According to the Irish census 2002 the number of Muslims was 19,147. The number has risen to 32,500 in 2006. The total population of Ireland was 4,239,848. As for the nationalities of Muslims living in Ireland and their countries of origin there over 40 nationalities represented in the community at present. In the 2011 census, the number of Muslims rose by over 51% to a total of 49,200, Islam is the fastest growing religion in Ireland.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheBlueCanoe (talk • contribs) 04:59, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Background material that might be useful  

message: No citations and the use of the phrase "interesting" is clearly personal opinion. I don't see anything wrong with including a section on radical clerics if relevant and it has proper citation and isn't just personal opinion and original research but this is supposed to an encyclopedia entry not a blog!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ultan42 (talk • contribs) 14:28, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Radical theologians and organisations" Section has no citations!

message: The star and crescent in this context is obviously a medieval European heraldic device, not an Islamic symbol. There's no reason for it to be shown on this page, and is misleading insofar as it falsely implies some sort non-historical connection with Islam.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 51.37.236.106 (talk) 00:37, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
