Talk:History of Dublin

message: This article contains the bizarre claim that Dublin's population rose steadily during the 19th century (to 400,000) and the contradictory claim that Belfast was bigger than Dublin in 1900.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.187.39.141 (talk) 17:15, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: 19th century population

message: This article is missing a section on everything from 1170-1700. Quite an omission! i'm going to write a section on  this. Jdorney
i added the lockout section as well, but forgot to log in Jdorney
I've moved a lot of the architectural content to the new Development and Preservation in Dublin page. Some of the End of British Rule section has been moved to the history of the Republic of Ireland page. i've also added in a lot more historical detail on earlier periods. if people think the article is too long, or want o cut out some of the stuff that is here to insert more important stuff, thats fine. Maybe discuss it here first though. Likewise if anyone feels the old version should be reverted. Jdorney 21:59, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: This section comes across as very biased against 60s-70s inner city development and demolishing og old houses. I don't necessarily disagree with that, but en encyclopedia article should be more neutral. Inserted POV tag. 93.160.119.14 (talk) 08:20, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Destruction of Georgian Dublin

message: Hello, I accidentily duplicated some information on the Love Ulster march- put it in the northern section. Fluffy999 23:28, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: duplication

message: I just read this whole article through, and it seems lacking a bit. I'm not in a position to fix it, not being a writer, but thought I'd comment on it. Parts seem to be stream-of-consciousness writing, especially the later parts. Random little facts appear tacked on to the ends of paragraphs, the narrative flow is very jumpy. The IRA appear without introduction as if from a vacuum. I imagine it's hard to write a history of Dublin without turning it into a history of Ireland, but still... The (short) civil war section is decidedly anti-IRA. And the section on the destruction of Georgian buildings is decidedly anti-development. Neither express an NPOV in my reading.
Just a few thoughts. Hope I haven't offended anyone! Miken32 16:24, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: quality

message: Anybody know where this is? According to Manus O Riordan of SIPTU in a radio discussion about Irish involvement in the British concentration camps this is the name which was given to the arch on Stephen's Green (which commemorates those who died fighting for the British Empire against the Boers) by, of all people, the Redmondites. 193.1.172.138 22:41, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The site of the arch was for a statue of Wolfe Tone and the foundation stone was laid in 1898, all approved by the corporation. Then the money ran out, and the corporation built the arch instead for Dubliners that died in that war.86.42.209.22 (talk) 22:29, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Traitors' Gate

message: I've removed the assertion that:
"This [slavery] nominally ended with the adoption of the Brehon Laws, but actually continued for a further century."
The Brehon laws had been around for centuries and so had slavery. How do we know that the Vikings observed the B Laws? The B laws allowed for 3 currencies - cattle, silver and slave girls. See Brehon laws#Lay grades.Red Hurley (talk) 13:24, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Foundation period and slavery

message: The article says little about Dublin's trade, as Ireland's busiest port until the 1800s. Traders sat on the City Council, which again there is nothing about, though it ran the city for centuries. The northside slums were not slums in the 1700s. Very few footnotes!86.46.230.28 (talk) 07:16, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

message: The period 988-1169 is completely undocumented on this page. This would be acceptable on the page Dublin as only a basic outline of the history is required but on page entirely dedicated to the history of the capital city of Ireland, I would see this as complete unacceptable. It is not down to a lack of reliable sources or information either. I am going to fill in this period shortly, I am just struggling to grasp how this could be missed.
