Mediation 3
What do you mean BB has left due to a broken computer? Who is BB? Of course it's not a vote. Dr ea my \*/ !$!  19:37, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Brixton Buster. I seen the vote box at the top of the page? --Domer48 20:14, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes. That is not a vote box per se. It is merely for me to get my info. We will of course be having the discussion at length, these pages are merely for getting your thoughts down, for everyone to see. Your Grace Lord Sir Dreamy of Buckland   tm  12:24, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

The Orange Institution content disputes
Hi, to try to resolve the impasse I have suggested an approach which I hope that editors might find useful to help to resolve the content disputes over the article Orange Institution: see Talk:Orange Institution. I am not a mediator, let alone a one-woman arbcom, so this is only a suggestion, and it may be that editors can find a more effective approach. However, I'm keen to see some progress towards settling those disputes, so I would be grateful if you could read that suggestion and see if it helps. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 10:41, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

You will note I am expanding the list, I am particularly interested in the damage a Supergrass (informer) can do to a just cause. Aatomic1 13:54, 6 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Could the number of people arrested no be enough! What does the list actually do? --Domer48 14:05, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Editing comments
I didn't mean to. All I did was insert my comment within yours, to make it clear to what I responding. Many people seem to do that all the time on talk pages. If you don't like it, well, I apologise. No offence meant. Cheers, Neale Monks 18:36, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Wind That Shakes the Barley music
What do you mean musically by "revised"? Is Pearse the performer or the composer? Did he reinterpret the song? Or did he add new lyrics or other new musical content to the composition itself? It's unclear as written. Thanks. --Melty girl 20:14, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the link. It looks like Pearse only added lyrics, right? No music, correct? In that case, it's not really correct to say that he either "reinvented" it or "revised" it, since he didn't touch the music, and he didn't remove or rewrite the existing lyrics. It seems more correct to say that he "added verses". But I think the real problem here is that in The Wind That Shakes the Barley, there just isn't enough information about the song to help readers make sense of the clause about Pearse if they don't already know the whole story. "Amongst the songs on the film's soundtrack is 'Oró Sé do Bheatha 'Bhaile', a song revised by Padraig Pearse," is very vague. It only raises questions. Why should I care about this particular song? Who is Pearse? Who wrote it originally? I think it needs to explain in full what the significance and origin of the song is. --Melty girl 20:46, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Great Irish Genocide
Shouldn't that be "relatively speaking"? One Night In Hackney 303  08:30, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Patrick Pearse
Hello there Domer48. You appear to have totally deleted or reverted my recent edit to enhance Padraig's story with material I feel should be included in order to have a complete understanding of his person, his political standpoint and the situation at the time. All of course negotiable and perhaps leading to a more interesting discussion than on his private life. I do admit I should have perhaps edited a little at a time rather than so much all at once which on this sacred gound can naturally trigger an over-reaction revert ?. I see you say something about "Copy Violation". Yes, I did quote Dudley word for word so as to avoid being accused of POV. I have no bother in finding similar non-copied alternate wording. Is this where I went wrong ?? Thanks for your advice. Greetings Osioni 18:14, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

List of YI books on Great Irish Famine
Hi there--just wanted to let you know I've removed this list again. In addition to already being in place at Young Ireland (how many places does it need to exist, really?), there's already a section for further reading. An article about an historical topic doesn't require an exhaustive list of all its primary sources; consider how quickly that would get out of hand. I'm not suggesting the YI sources themselves are somehow inappropriate (quite the opposite), but we should use them as sources to improve the article text. Dppowell 12:57, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the message; I replied on the article talk page. Dppowell 13:40, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Protestant parliament for protestant people
It does make sense that he would wait 3 years to make that statement, if you read the context to his comments. I referenced it to the NIHOC Hansard somewhere, you can find it here. He was responding to a very specific taunt.Traditional unionist 11:38, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
