Talk:List of civil parishes of County Clare

Disputed
I'm not sure why you've added the disputed tag. It says a "List of civil parishes in County Clare" and the sources back up this statement. The tag says "Please help to ensure that disputed statements are reliably sourced" but the statements are reliable sourced. Also there's unlikely to be an "expert" on Irish civil parishes editing it so effectively we have two unsightly tags slopped on it for no immediately apparent reason. I was considering creating a single List of civil parishes of Ireland, a comprehensive list by county and redirect this but if you're going to question the accuracy and slop tags I'm not going to bother.♦ Dr. Blofeld  08:27, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
 * The situation is exactly as the template states: This article's factual accuracy is disputed. That is not your fault but just a lack of accuracy in the present list that has to be solved. Still a lot of blue links point to places and not to civil parishes. And even the ones pointing to parishes point to RC-parishes, not to civil parishes or the protestant parishes they are based on.

 * The situation is NOT as the template states. The names shown are all correct, with some tweaking needed on the links: you can fix the damned things rather than pointlessly tagging and war-reverting. - SchroCat (talk) 12:25, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Dude, please: The civil parish was the fundamental administrative unit within each county. These parishes were based on the medieval Christian parishes, adapted by the English administration and the Protestant Church of Ireland. Government and Church of Ireland records between the 17th and early 20th centuries utilized these territorial units. They are not currently used as administrative units. as the first source states. It is indeed easy enough to disambiguate alle links with "(civil parish)" but then you are left with a list of red links prone to removal. The Banner talk 12:32, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Brilliant. Edit warring. Excellent way to get your point across. And don't ever call me "dude". Ever. - SchroCat (talk) 12:37, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
 * D..e, I live in County Clare. I have written a number of the articles now in play. I know where I am talking about. Civil parishes in England are different from Irish. The Banner talk 12:42, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
 * What an uncivil little editor you are. "Dude". - SchroCat (talk) 12:44, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Do you really want me to disambiguate Kilmurry Ibrickane into "Kilmurry Ibrickane (Roman-catholic parish)" (prsent state), "Kilmurry Ibrickane (civil parish)" and "Kilmurry Ibrickane (Church of Ireland parish)"? The chance that the last two are written in the near or foreseeable future is quite small... The Banner talk 12:47, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

I really don't know why Banner you keep adding these tags. We have official sources to the County Clare library vouching for all 81 being civil parishes. Whether or not these subdivisions still operate in practice or overlap with Roman Catholic parishes is irrelevant, they were or are official divisions and the sources prove this that there are 81 civil parishes. That's all we need to assert the case. You're adding tags basically on what some Irish vicar says and ignoring what reliable sources say. That's not how we build on encyclopedia is it?♦ Dr. Blofeld  16:24, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
 * You have sources to names but nothing more. The Banner talk 16:30, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, I have reverted your revert. You were introducing incorrect links. Civil parishes were bigger than the present places you tried to link to. Civil parishes are also no identical with the present Roman-Catholic parishes. Except for the names and the fact that they were more or less similar with protestant parishes, I have no information at all about the civil parishes. That makes it very difficult to write articles about them. Maybe you have sources, but please, don't let them point to wrong targets.

 * In effect, to create correct article you will get articles of this type: Bunratty (County Clare Civil Parish). <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 16:41, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Why not remove the links then?♦ Dr. Blofeld  16:41, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't want to be rude, but you removed them. Accidentally, I presume. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 16:53, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

Villages and civil parishes/municipalities usually have articles in one place on here. It's perfectly fine to have a village and civil parish of the same name in one article. ♦ Dr. Blofeld  10:13, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
 * This is a dumb discussion. There is no reason to doubt the accuracy of the list of parish names. It is completely reasonable for one article to cover both a village and the various parishes that surround it, all with the same name. If anyone knows of an inaccuracy, they should correct it. What specific assertion is disputed here? 75.155.216.221 (talk) 00:50, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
