Hey, that photograph entitled "Glendalough Valley" is actually a picture of Glendassan valley (the valley next-door to Glendalough)!

Climbing v General Interest

Bridging up the steep corner of Sarcophagus (4 pitches, grade HVS/5a) at Glendalough
Upper Lake

An editor deleted the photo on the left while leaving the one on the right: The explanation given was: (Reverted excessive image - see policy at WP:NOT#REPOSITORY). OK, so WP isn't a dumping ground for images, and there were already four in this article. But (in my opinion) the deleted photo was considerably more illustrative of "Glendalough" than the photo which was left in place (on the right). If we are going to excise pictures, what criteria do we use? In my judgement the picture on the right is the one which should be deleted, if either has to be. This is not an article about rock climbing; it is about Glendalough. Perhaps the rock climbing articles should have a separate category? We don't classify rivers based on their "coarse fishing" rating. That would be somewhere in the 'fishing' section. (Sarah777 22:56, 25 April 2007 (UTC))

Neither of the photos are mine, I should add. (Sarah777 07:42, 26 April 2007 (UTC))

Heritage Site classification when?

Aparently Glendalough is a heritage site but there seems to be nothing on the page saying that it is or when it was made a heritage site. There is also no information on why Glendalough was made a heritage site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.202.136.171 (talk) 19:56, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Please feel free to edit the article, adding the information you deem relevant

I do hope Warrenfish will very shortly be adding the necessary references, as well as turning his/her non-sentences into sentences and fixing her/his numerous spelling errors. The article is not a pretty sight right now.

Round Tower Use?

According to Wikipedia's Round Tower page, these round towers were probably NOT used as a refuge, despite the traditional assumption from the door being above ground.

there are now many photos between paragraphs if appropriate plus the huge two panoramic of the lakes. Is is still necessary to have the Gallery as well? --Elisa.rolle (talk) 14:23, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
