Fermanagh

I will not press the issue, but I think you are wrong. Fermanagh is essentially an administrative area, whether called a district or a county. So it should be marked as such, even in a county list. --Audiovideo 01:55, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The county and district are two distinct areas - Template:Counties of Ireland is for the former and not the latter - in summary "County Fermanagh" is to "Fermanagh District" as England is to Britain - the terms are not interchangeable.

Do you think there was a difference before 1973? --Audiovideo 13:14, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I am not sure what you mean - now is 2005 in any case and counties and districts are different - the fundemental question is is County Fermanagh an administrative entity?, no, Fermanagh District is - but this table is not about districts. Djegan 17:33, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Dublin City University Article

I think it might be prudent to cut back or possibly eliminate the lists of various things. Djegan 19:35, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what to take out, I'll leave that up to you. I'm good at finding information, not figuring out whether a particular piece of information is suitable for inclusion in an article, or whether the format used to display the information is appropriate eg: lists. - Beta

It is not my intention to totally remove any of the material you have introduced but rather to restructure the article so that material on accomodation, bars and restaurants should come under one single section such as "Facilities" - or simailar - and the material presented as written paragraphs rather than lists of facts. My own preference is for written paragraphs in a narrative form that can be easier to read and edit. Djegan 14:22, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)

DCU Library

Do you have a better image of the O'Reilly library than the one on the DCU definition? If you do please replace the image which is currently being used.

That current image is a model as far as I know but I think it is the best their might be. Djegan 22:00, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

DCU Links

Could these useful links about DCU's governing structure, board of trustees etc.. be left in or should they be put on a different page:

Corporate Identity
DCU Administration and Organisation
DCU Business & Innovation
DCU Counselling Service-not sure about this one.
DCU Disability Service-not sure about this one.
DCU Educational Trust
DCU Education Services
DCU Events
DCU General Information
DCU Governing Authority
DCU Health Service-not sure about this one.
DCU International Office
DCU News
DCU Public Affairs and Media Relations Office
DCU Summer Accommodation
DCU Visual Arts

I think it is better to leave them out and leave links relevant - if you have specific relevant information then by all means add it into the article. It is no harm to add info governance etc, but goverance in irish universities tends to be too broad. I have left a message on your talk page, Beta. Djegan 17:50, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Poor work on recent Irish articles

I've been going through jtdirl's edits, and I'm appalled at the generally low quality of his work. Errors in spelling and grammar abound, many details are incorrect, and the way he tortures English makes me wince. I've been cleaning up his edits, but I've only gone back a few days so far and it looks like a lot of work. Perhaps English is not his native language, but apart from style, his material is not reliable. At one point he talked about "the President of the United Kingdom" as a factual office.

I'm not putting myself forward as a purveyor of high class English, but the stuff put out by this editor is pretty bloody ordinary, and that's me being generous! Could you take a look at his stuff, please?

Thanks for the space, BTW - mote in mate's eye and all that! Pete 22:09, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I am not convinced that Jtdirl's edits are low quality as a matter of course - in particular comments you placed in the edit history of Official Seal of the President of Ireland [1] would appear to be part of a series of edits intended for him which you posted today. In fact Jtdirl only has superficially edited this article by the inclusion of a template and much of the work on this article is by me, in fact.
