message: What exactly does: "Seo Radio 2RN Baile Atha Cliath ag tastail" translate to (and how do you pronounce it)?
Meanwhile, here are some other notable bits from RTE:
"Radio Telefis Eireann, RTE anseo agaibh" (last bit pronounced "unshow agive", according to a pronounciation guide I'm reading now): "RTE, here at you" (how RTE opened its TV service in the B&W days)
"Comhartha na Cheithre Bhosca", the Irish name for the 4 Boxes Logo: the guide convinces me that it reads "kowarha na khei-re wosca".
No, I don't live in Ireland (never been there either).
A visitor, 4:40pm (GMT +7) Oct 3, 2003
:You're close alright. I'd pronounce "Radio Telefis Eireann, RTE anseo agaibh" as "raadio telifeesh air-an RTE anshoh agwiß" (where "ß" is the Castillian b/v sound, a voiced bilabial fricative) and "Comhartha na Cheithre Bhosca" as "koßawrha na kheh-re ßoska". --Kgaughan 00:10, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

message: Is it just me or this article look like its been re-written by someone from RTÉ recently - I don't think we should be using the "IBD" term for example - it is offical RTÉ terminology, but its used by no one except RTÉ employees. The entire article reads like a press release in parts now. I notice the editor also airbrushed RTÉ Radio Cork out of existance - maybe RTÉ doesn't like to admit that it has ever closed a station. --Rdd 22:03, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Just something you wrote about tg4 (TnaG) is incorrect.
TnaG is an Irish language TV channel owned by the state (oireachtas). RTÉ, as the public service broadcaster, is obliged to provide tg4 with 1 hour of programming per day and a news service. It is based is Baile na hAbhann, Co Galway, and is NOT a part of RTÉ.
Obviously, tg4 don't produce mant more programmes than they receive from RTE. Most of the programmes shown during the kids' show are American; sometimnes dubbed in Irish but usually kept in English.
-Unsigned comment by 213.202.148.40 at 15:51 31 MAY 2006 on article page
TG4 will be transformed into an independent statutory body from the beginning of April in 2007 after Noel Dempsey announced it on 17 August 2006.

thread_title: Relationship with TG4

message: Some long time ago, maybe in the 70's, RTÉ made a short (maybe black and white) series of 15-minute sketches with Jimmy O'Dea and David Kelly as two railway employees in an old-fashioned junction box (sorry, I don't remember the name of the series--Help, Please). The sketches were masterpieces of Dublin humour; Kelly always addressed O'Dea as "Mister O," and each sketch ended with the duo making tea!
RTE, to its credit, has brought out DVD's of Hall's Pictorial Weekly and Wanderly Wagon. However, Jimmy O'Dea's contribution to Irish comedy is part of Ireland's--in particular, Dublin's-- cultural heritage. He was idolized by the people of Dublin, and may well have been Ireland's greatest, or at least best-loved, 20th century comedian. If anyone can remember more about the series, or persuade RTE to bring out DVD's, they will be doing a great service to that cultural heritage.--PeadarMaguidhir 11:54, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

*Strongly Oppose -- RTÉ is from "Radio Telefís Éireann" and indeed this maybe subject to change to the slightly different spelling of "Radio Teilifís Éireann" as proposed in the Broadcasting Bill 2008 (Section 113). In any case the current spelling of "Radio Telefís Éireann" is from the Broadcasting Authority (Amendment) Act, 1966 (Section 3)" as confirmed, before amendment, by the Broadcasting Bill 2008 (Section 113). Whilst "RTÉ" calls itself "RTÉ" most of the time, it has never declared that "Radio Telefís Éireann" is a pseudo-acronym, nor has anyone else - until now and here -- we as a community need to do research before proposing moves!

message: Because of the changes the broadcasting act introduces this article will require some changes (the name change has been done). Most notably the RTÉ Authority will become the RTÉ Board; I assume some regulatory powers would be tranferred to the proposed "Broadcasting Authority of Ireland". It is not easy to get (confirmed) details but this would be a start. It does not give the text of the act, but rather the text of the bill which is 181 pages long.
As the article is 38 kilobytes long (32 is often considered the optimum) it could be an opportunity to split some of the material off; there is also a more than healthy "splattering" of images. Time for a cull? Djegan (talk) 17:25, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: I read it originally, and I've re-read it now. It doesn't identify any reason why this article should be treated differently to the vast majority of similar articles across the 'paedia. Instead it claims a rather unique, limited, and novel POV interpretation of the first part of IMOS, while ignoring the totality of it. This interpretation has repudiated by numerous contributors further down through the discussions. What is being argued for is a tightening of IMOS. In which case this is the wrong venue for such an argument. It should be conducted at WT:IMOS, and any agreed consensus there, should be implemented across all related articles. There is nothing unique about the article which would require such a restrictive interpretation of IMOS. And until someone introduces some uniqueness, this is going nowhere. It is a waste of everyones time. Lets move on. Fmph (talk) 12:36, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The references to "Ireland" in the "vast majority" of articles to which you refer are mere geographic articles. Ambiguity doesn't come into play because, geographically, towns in the Republic are in both "Irelands", i.e. the island and the state. Therefore, saying "Cork is in Ireland" is always right, whichever meaning of Ireland is intended. In this article, and many others, ambiguity is an issue because it is important to know whether RTE is the broadcaster for all of Ireland or just the Republic. IMOS is clear: where there is ambiguity use Republic of Ireland - you haven't come up with any reason to set aside the guideline in this case. Mooretwin (talk) 15:38, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Just have a quick trawl through the What links here pages for RoI and you'll see that the vast majority are not 'mere' geographic articles. And have a good read of ALL of WP:IMOS because it is in no way 'clear' that where there is ambiguity we should use RoI. This has been explained many times before, and just repeating this mantra ad infinitum does not in any way progress the argument any further forward. Fmph (talk) 16:00, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: So what type of non-geographic articles use Ireland where ambiguity may arise? If you have identified some, then the IMOS guideline should apply. And, from reading "all" of the IMOS, it is indeed clear that ROI should be used where ambiguity arises, as has been explained many times before. Just denying this ad infinitum does not in any way progress the argument any further forward. (If you're trying to argue that "the state forms a major component" of this article, you're wrong - this article is about, and discusses, RTE, not the Irish state.

replies: text: Raidió Teilifís Éireann →  – Using the abbreviations as the page title satisfies the naming WP:CRITERIA. It is clearly more concise. It is certainly as recognisable as Raidió Teilifís Éireann. I would argue that no precision is lost, although it is of course not its official name (but WP:OFFICIAL).
Most significantly, it is more natural, in the sense that we describe Bryan Dobson as a "presenter with RTÉ" rather a "presenter with Raidió Teilifís Éireann", as so also is a more common name for the corporation (see WP:COMMONNAME).
In terms of consistency, it would match the various pages beginning with RTÉ, as against none others using the full name. Iveagh Gardens (talk) 15:21, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

message: The Establishment and name section has this unsourced claim:Because it is an initialism, would it not be pronounced [i fˈäda]? I can't seem to find any sources online that says that the common pronunciation of RTÉ is wrong, which I believe policy would require. What I can find suggests É is pronounced as normal but with the word fada after the e. The debate is more about the R! Does anyone know if this is an acceptable pronunciation? – Mullafacation {◌͜◌ talk} 09:49, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: In common parlance in Ireland, this is simply pronounced as the English-langauges letters: R T E. The Irish pronounciation would be different, yes, a more rolled R, T much as in English, and the E more like a slightly elongated "eh", but day-to-day, this is handled as if the underlying words were in English. Many clips from the channels of RTÉ itself, or other Irish sources commenting on it, will show this. SeoR (talk) 10:19, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
