Years
, the year categories Category:2014 in the Republic of Ireland and Category:2014 in the Republic of Ireland are both relevant to this article. Stop removing them. The banking crisis is not over, as you claim, and a read of any recent material by any competent economist will confirm that. There may be another clue in the setting up of an inquiry into actions at IBRC, and the subsequent replacement of that, just this week, with a Commission of Inquiry. Yet again: WP:5; WP:NPOV; WP:V; WP:BRD. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 17:54, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

Renaming request
I am requesting that this article is renamed 2008–14 Irish banking crisis as this is the period the banking crisis in Ireland happened. Thanks! --DylanMcKaneWiki (talk) 21:31, 27 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Oppose. The banking crisis might be said to be over when the banks are profitable again, they're all fully privatised again after they've repaid the Irish people what they are owed, the Banking Inquiry mentioned in the section above (where you last requested a rename) has concluded and issued its report, and the prosecutions have all been dealt with by the courts. In other words: not last year. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 22:15, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Per Bastun. Any suggestion that the issues with the banking industry are "finished" (and have been finished for a year) is premature. In any event, per WP:OR and WP:NOT, it's not up to a debate here, When relevant external sources (economics books or journals, etc) put an "end date" on it, then we should reflect that here.

Very poor article, requiring rewrite and new title
This article was built up over many years, by many people, with little bits, often trivia, added on piecemeal. Important analyses and references, eg the Nyberg report, are not mentionned.

The problems start with the title "Post-2008 Irish banking crisis". There was a banking crisis in 2008, solved instantly by a total guarantee,but which gave rise later to a sovereign funding crisis that took off big time in 2010. These are quite distinct and each merit an article.

The small article, Credit Institutions (Financial Support) Act 2008, is also poor (but thankfully short). It could maybe be renamed and become the focus of the 2008 banking crisis.

There is a global list of banking crises here, List of banking crises. Note that they are time limited ! There is no "Post-" title among them. It is not because the Irish taxpayer will be paying for the guarantee for decades that a "Post-" is required. And the first crisis obviously happened in 2008, not "Post-2008".

The article is classifed as C and "mid-importance", when it should be "high"; the subject is of major importance in the study of Ireland in the 21st century. It is also gives a very poor impression of Wikipedia. There are a ton of books on the subject and they are all I think cohesive, in contrast to this article.

The sister article Post-2008 Irish economic downturn is also very poor.

My interest is in starting articles as Gaeilge and that is not helped by this mish-mash. TGcoa (talk) 10:57, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
