message: What do editors think do we need to know that Aidan was an was an Irish Catholic is it relevent to the article. BigDunc 20:02, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd say it's useful to have some information, whether it be Catholic or Nationalist, so that context can be established. All depends on what the sources say I suppose. One Night In Hackney303 20:07, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Time use Catholic. While to almost anyone from Ireland or familiar with it his GAA membership shows his background, it's not at all obvious to anyone else so it's a useful qualifier for them. It might be better as "Nationalist", if it can be sourced. One Night In Hackney303 23:02, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry to be pedantic, but was he actually a "Nationalist" per se? From what I've read of his life he seems to have been fairly apolitical-just an innocent Catholic who lived and worked in a border town. Using Catholic would probably be more helpful to readers who aren't familiar with the background to The Troubles. GiollaUidir 08:27, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, I dont think we should be using the term Nationalist unless its referenced. There is a fair assumption that Aidan was a nationalist of description but wiki doesnt do "truth" we do "verifiable information".--Vintagekits 17:46, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Heavy bullets might be expected to be lodged in tarmac, not ricochet. The claim that there was a ricochet might be a lie. If true, it would make it look as though the bullet was not aimed at anyone deliberately.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.141.189.156 (talk) 11:13, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

message: Aidan was raised by his mother and father. Lizzie and John. He was the youngest of 6. He didn't move away from his home as he stayed to look after his parents.  Why are these details incorrect or not included? McanespieAughnacloy (talk) 13:25, 30 October 2019 (UTC)

message: Where is the evidence for this being murder? This seems like opinion to me.
: Being deliberately shot in the back fits that claim.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.166.3 (talk) 18:09, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
