thread_title:  What is the significance of this event? 

message: The IRA at the time referred to the "Border Campaign" as the Resistance Campaign.  As O Bradaigh was a key actor in that campaign, it is worth noting this. --WilliamHanrahan (talk) 01:12, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The IRA's minority name for the event belongs in the Border Campaign article, not this one. One Night In Hackney303 07:47, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

text: I agree with Hack on this.  The name is not commonly used, and is only relevant in the article about the Border Campaign (the much more commonly used term), and not in this article.  And, you have to provide a reference that says the IRA called it the "Resistance Campaign."  There is plenty of evidence for the other name. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 15:16, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There is a source, but that doesn't mean it should be used in any other article except the BC article. The common name is the Border Campaign and that's what we use here. Otherwise we're in a ludicrious situation where every time any event is mentioned we need to include every name it's known by, no matter how fringe the name. One Night In Hackney303 16:36, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

text: The name given to the Border campaign by the IRA was Operation Harvest, which was a campaign of resistance, just as each campaign was prior to and and afterwards, but the border campaign was not known as The Resistance Campaign as WilliamHanrahan is claiming, and the ref he is refering to dosent make that claim either, in fact the article in IRIS is a reprint of the book Resistance - The story of the struggle in British-Occupied Ireland published in dec 1957 and banned by both the British and Irish governments.--Padraig (talk) 05:11, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

text: The J Bowyer Bell book 'The IRA - The secret Army nor the AP/RN article support your claim that Some activists object to the term "Border Campaign" as it covered a larger area than that even the Resistance book dosen't claim that so what is your source for that statement. And as I said above all IRA campaigns where resistance campaigns.--Padraig (talk) 14:32, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

text: That is the problem you inserted material with the refs you provided, but you also included your own interpetation of those sources that is WP:OR, so the statement isn't correct except in your opinion of the events.--Padraig (talk) 20:29, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Border Campaign

message: Ok, Hanrahan, you want to discuss, let's discuss.  Please, if you will, respond to the following research.
Search of AP for "resistance campaign" returns 52 results. However most of them are links to the "50 years on" article as you can see: http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Awww.anphoblacht.com+%22resistance+campaign%22&btnG=Search
So a more specific search is in order to exclude the term "50 years on": http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=site%3Awww.anphoblacht.com+%22resistance+campaign%22+-%2250+years+on%22&btnG=Search
3 results, and only 1 of them about the Border Campaign: http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=site%3Awww.anphoblacht.com+%22border+campaign%22&btnG=Search
"Border Campaign" returns 57 results. Just for balance, search for results excluding "50 years on": http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=site%3Awww.anphoblacht.com+%22border+campaign%22+-%2250+years+on%22&btnG=Search
42 results!
And we'll try Republican News just to be on the safe side as well: http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=site%3Arepublican-news.org+%22resistance+campaign%22&btnG=Search
1 result for "Resistance Campaign", and not about the Border Campaign: http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=site%3Arepublican-news.org+%22border+campaign%22&btnG=Search
19 results for "Border Campaign".  What say you to that, sir? ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 19:07, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I say that's overwhelming evidence it's a minority name even among the Republican Movement, and only belongs in the Border Campaign article. One Night In Hackney303 21:19, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is telling that there has been no response to this evidence. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 22:59, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

text: As evidenced by the search results, the RM use "Border Campaign" an overwhelming majority of the time, in fact RN returns zero relevant search results for "Resistance Campaign". Minority terms for events shouldn't be plastered all over the place, only in the articles about the event. One Night In Hackney303 00:27, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

text: Well it's not going back in this one. One Night In Hackney303 04:05, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

text: Why? It's a minority term, scarcely used even by the people involved. Therefore the only place it really belongs is in the actual Border Campaign article. One Night In Hackney303 00:36, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

text: I see nothing that counters the fact that the accepted name for the event is "Border Campaign", and that even among the participants "Border Campaign" is the accepted and most used name, not the minority and rarely used "Resistance Campaign". Therefore, as before, it doesn't belong in this article. One Night In Hackney303 22:10, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

message: There is nothing about this anywhere online and Im sure someone somewhere would've been happy to write plenty about it if it was true. Unless anyone has any objections or evidence that this is true then Im taking it down as its just vandalism.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.126.25.46 (talk) 22:49, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
