Talk:Bombing of Dublin in World War II

message: The Irish Republic, inasmuch as it ever existed, was long gone by the Second World War. Yet the Republic of Ireland only came about in 1949. What should we rename these sections too? "Earlier German bombings of the Irish Free State/Ireland/Éire"? I'm pretty sure the Irish Free State ceased to exist in 1937 and Ireland, while legally completely correct, doesn't solve the problem that the heading is obviously trying to avoid, namely to make clear that Northern Ireland is not included. Although I dislike Éire when used in English, it might be the best solution. Any thoughts?--Dub8lad1 14:40, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

replies: text:  I have removed references to Éire in this article since A) it is not the English language name for the state of Ireland and this article is in the English language, and B) it is clear from the context of the text that Ireland refers to the state and not the island.

message: ". By July 1940 the United Kingdom stood alone against" Taken from the article. Neutral Point of View question here as New Zealand, Canada, and Australia among others had troops based in the UK. The UK would have been the sole european country in the theatre which is a different matter entirely. 86.44.71.5 (talk) 08:46, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

message: The section Timeline of German bombings of the Irish state  is really out of scope for the article name Bombing of Dublin in World War II.  One solution would be rename the article sometime like say German air attacks on the Irish state in World War 2  (or Republic of Ireland / Emergency etc)..  The bombing of Dublin would be a subsection.  This would also cover the Blackrock Island incident of august 20th 1940 (which perhaps could be better majored here with a see reference from that page.  If done a redirect from the original name would be prudent.  These are my thoughts anyway.

message: "In 1943, the German government paid £9000 in compensation. (£522,800 in 2024)"
Given that both countries now use the Euro shouldnt this figure be given in this currency ? 109.144.221.170 (talk) 21:58, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
