Talk:Ribbonism

POV
Probably not intended, but I think that "It could be classified as a primitive form of nationalism" could be read as POV. If it can be classified as nationalism, I am going to so classify it in the previous sentence. Scolaire 19:15, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Contradiction
"Ribbonism, whose adherents were usually called Ribbonmen, refers to the Ribbon Society first founded in Ireland in 1826."

"On 26 July 1813 the Battle of Garvagh in County Londonderry took place. Four hundred Catholic Ribbonmen attempted to destroy a tavern in Garvagh where the Orange Lodge met."

Maybe to someone familiar with Irish history it sounds clear. But, most of us outsiders find it difficult to understand. Kornjaca (talk) 07:01, 18 July 2010 (UTC)


 * I found an article dated 16 April 1817 that refers to them. I have adjusted the lead appropriately. MacStep (talk) 20:01, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
