General comments

Maybe parts of north Clondalkin, i.e. Ronanstown, Quarrayvale, etc have some poverty but in general, I think Clondalkin is quite prosperous at the moment. Crime is no worse than anywhere in the city of Dublin.

I love how the petshop is listed as a main attraction. Who put that in there? 89.100.51.85 02:50, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Toastmasters

I have removed some of the Toastmaster information because it is blatant advertising. If people are interested in knowing more about the club they will click on the link and the club's website should have all the details. I'm not against Toasties, I've been a member for a few years, but Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Roaming27 10:39, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes it certainly was blatant advertising. I've rewritten it some more, it should be NPOV now. --Hibernian 16:06, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Hibernian  :-) Roaming27 00:20, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Local clubs

This needs a bit of a clean-up. Some of it is not really notable and some of it is advertising. I'll try and make some time to re-word some of it. If anyone wishes to discuss any issues please post here, thanks. Roaming27 10:43, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Round Tower

I'd say put more in about the Round Tower, the GAA club of the same name and the Gaelscoil, since the latter 2 are the first in Ireland.


Darn tootin'! I found a picture here http://media.photobucket.com/image/clondalkin%20round%20tower/hutton001/ClondalkinRoundTower.jpgFile:Http://media.photobucket.com/image/clondalkin round tower/hutton001/ClondalkinRoundTower.jpg

I noticed the article on Round Towers doesn't link here. We've one of the best examples in the world so I reckon it deserves a mention.89.100.38.132 (talk) 20:42, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit

I have deleted Transport and added it into today. I am wondering should I add a map of the area. Any help and comments welcome.

Some verification is needed for the comment unemployment is higher in North Clondalkin. I will leave it in for now
