2007-2008 Cork players strike--BorgQueen (talk) 14:38, 14 February 2008 (UTC) Charles Stewart and Wiki violationsHi there, I notice you recently left a message on Charles Stewart's Wiki talk page referring to his violation of rules and policy. He has recently summarily deleted content and added a deletion tag to the page about Vitamin S which I created. I'm not entirely sure what to do about this to ensure that the page is not deleted or removed again. It's entirely possible I've gone about the page Vitamin S page creation the wrong way. Would it be possible for you to give me some pointers on how to proceed? Thanks. Dinobass (talk) 09:33, 18 February 2008 (UTC) Your suggestesd category movesHi, I just saw that you left a note on my talk page which you then struck out:
I still think that it would be a good idea to rename the three soccer categories:
The parent category for this lot is Category:Football (soccer) in Europe, so this would both solve the ambiguity problem in Ireland and be consistent with the parent category. I think it's a reasonable proposal that would stand a good chance of success. Would it be OK with you if I went ahead and made the nomination at WP:CFD? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:45, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Unionist Gaelic FootballHi, there is no reference, I removed the Unionist bit before, it is subtly incorrect. Ulster Unionists would refer to Gaelic football as Gaelic football, perhaps Gaelic, but it would be easy to say that people of the protestant background by and large "never refer to Gaelic football" full stop. If you live in politically strong protestant areas, you never see gaelic football as opposed to refering to it, even out in the sticks. Imagine guarding the pitch all week just for the match on Sunday. You would soon have your eyes on a pitch where no kids would see it or youd have red hands painted on it and whatever else you can think of (even with peace some kids would probably want a picture of a big red hand on it or what ever else they could put on it).

GAA Player InfoboxHi Gnevin. Having a look at the GAA player infobox, I thought it looks quite dated and hasn't been updated in quite some time. I'm after creating a new one based on a soccer players infobox. Here's it is demonstrated on Dan Shanahan page. I personally think it looks better, allows for adjusted picture size (much better fit overall) and a few other things such as date of death and place of death and teams managed. Other items would be quite easy to add. Another feature is that any parameter which is omitted will not show up in this template, making for a cleaner template. Even if this isn't going to replace the old one, I'd hope to replace all Waterford GAA players at least and to use it for all future article I'd write if that's ok. Thanks for your time.

RE: Place of birth and LderryThe whole Londonderry thing is such bull****, especially for Derry GAA players. The compromise is little more than a farce, it gives no room for flexibility, despite wiki guidelines saying compromises should give scope for flexibility. The city and county are both called Derry by the vast majority of residents and I believe theres some wiki conventions on this somewhere as well. Alas thats a debate for another time. I agree with you that maybe place of birth needs to be added, so fair enough run the AWB. Don't feel theres any need to to add to opening line of article as well the infobox though, doesn't say the place of birth in most GAA's player's opening line. Up to yourself though. Sorry for the late reply by the way. Derry Boi (talk) 17:50, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Speedy of Billy SheehanHi Gnevin. A7 applies to articles about a person where the article does not indicate why its subject is important or significant. I listed the article for speedy because Billy Sheehan falls into that category. I'll remove the speedy based on WP:Athlete, and I'll replace with a tag looking for extra references for verification. Bardcom (talk) 00:39, 19 March 2008 (UTC) Irish FAsI fail to understand why you added a resolved tag to a four month old discussion I started about Irish Featured articles, because nothing has been done that I know of. Nor have I seen anything about IFAs being sorted, though what that has to do with encouraging people to get involved with existing and possible future Irish FAs, I don't know. It seems that few, if any, Irish editors are even interested in making, or keeping, any Irish articles as FAs. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 15:34, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
Infobox GAA playerHi Gnevin, I'm just wondering if there's a way of using a different sized image for different individual players in the {{Infobox GAA player}} from the default 250px one. And if so how do you do it? 250px seems to ruin the quality of some pictures (e.g. Paddy Bradley). Thanks Derry Boi (talk) 18:55, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
On the subject of the infoboxes, is it really necessary for local club years and club appearances to be visible in the final article even when, as in the vast majority of cases, they aren't filled in?

RE:Image:Samlifted.jpgWith all due respect, 4 minutes was probably too long. There was nothing you could do to resolve the issue of the copyright tag. It is against copyright laws for Wikipedia to host images that are not properly license, let alone images that bear a different license than the one the copyright holder placed on his image. Any image that is a violation of copyright law should be immediately deleted from Wikipedia. It is not a question of letting the uploader fix something, the expectation is that it should be properly licensed at the time of uploading, not a couple years after. Another fact is that the photo in question cannot be used on Wikipedia with the license it has. If it was simply a question of what the proper license is, and the image was free to host on Wikipedia, than of course I wouldn't have deleted the image, I would've just fixed it. In the future, if you don't want your photos to be deleted, make sure that the photos can be used on Wikipedia, and make sure that you mark said photo with the correct license.

(Outdent) There was no discussion. You refer to "a discussed change" but there was no discussion at all. No one noticed your post. No one replied, either for or against the move. When you moved the page, people noticed and objected. This made it clear the move was contested, and you should have placed it on requested moves, per policy. The admin was following policy. You were not. You edit warred and moved against consensus, against multiple admins trying to discuss with you, breaking 3RR, and you persist in accusing the admin who reverted your unsupported move of "ignoring" or "going against" policy; of being "above the law", none of which is true and all of which is rude and accusatory.

I'm dropping a note to all the fairly recent editors of the Irish Wikipedians' Noticeboard.

As of yet, there is no section on her lengthy career with RTE, and that's something I would like to rectify soon. However, what I can find seems to be just a vague overview.

Because the "precedence" is a disambiguation page, and "order of precedence" is not germane, I am also un-wiki-linking it. I also refactored your request in other ways. In addition, I offered a reply of my own.

"predate" is still less correct though. This has been clear on Wiktionary since November, 2006 when the word first appeared there. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/predate points to "antedate" as the proper word; not the other way around; just like http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/predate and http://www.thefreedictionary.com/predate . I think OED does, too, but please do not rv me back again without showing a reference with clear evidence to the contrary. :)--Thecurran (talk) 19:24, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
Yes there is almost an order of magnitude between the two, but did you notice how "pre-date" also showed up under "predate"? What one does before a date is not appropriate. Neither are the act of taking prey like a predator or the act of writing a check, etc. with a deliberately early date as opposed to postdating. Can you produce such a count that clearly has evidence contrary to my own (e.g., by removing hyphenated versions and those without the intended meaning)? Would such a count still show a difference that is positive and large enough to go against official sources? :)--Thecurran (talk)
Okay, now we are dealing with 17:2.1 but Predate-50 is a drug, and there are still articles on predation, as in predator and prey. http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1O998-antedate.html shows how "antedate" is the main term in the "© The Oxford Pocket Thesaurus of Current English 2008", not "predate". http://www.oed.com/services/public-libs.html contains a list of public libraries in the Republic of Ireland and the UK from which you might be able access OED online directly. Either way, when Merriam-Webster and OED combine, you have some of the top sources in transatlantic English. It is hard to weigh against both of them together but I am still open to a count that does not have inappropriate terms in at least the top ten. :)--Thecurran (talk) 20:08, 18 June 2008 (UTC) BTW, the top ten of your last entry still had tips on what to do before a date. :)--Thecurran (talk) 20:12, 18 June 2008 (UTC) I have to be AFK for a long time now.

I suggest you rephrase along the lines of Usage of the term Ireland by the Irish government, etc. Maybe its OTT, but maybe it avoids a needless discussion... --HighKing (talk) 16:51, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media). If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Carcharoth (talk) 15:21, 11 October 2008 (UTC) Speedy deletion of Template:AdditionA tag has been placed on Template:Addition, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding International Rules catsHey, great work with the International Rules categories from 2001-2008. I don't know the teams for 1999 and 2000, but just to let you I put the 1998 panel on the 1998 Series article. Don't have a notion how to use that AWB thing you used, so thought I'd let you know in case you want to add a similar category for 1998.Derry Boi (talk) 00:55, 30 October 2008 (UTC) Londo06Do you find it strange that a new account (User:Wasps FC) has jumped directly into a discussion on a subject which seems important to our dear puppet master friend?

N.I. counties using the county navboxHey, I reverted your change and mentioned in the summary that I'd added some parameters to make it adapt to N.I. counties. I've now realized I planned to add those parameters, specifically to add in a field for administrative districts, but never quite got around to it. I will someday though! --Schcamboaon scéal? 23:53, 24 November 2008 (UTC) Flag crusade has to stopBy now, your edits have established a record of constant removal of flags from several templates. The flags are related to the template topics and are justified. There is no guideline nor a praxis within Wikipedia you could cite to keep up your actions. The opposite is true, the Manual of style clearly supports a measured usage of flags in templates. Stop your actions, your not adding or improving content within Wikipedia.
