Regarding the Beyond the Labyrinth article
Hello.

I would like to know why does the article that I created/edited is been considered for deletion. I really appreciated the fact that you proposed the article for deletion per WP:PROD, therefore I added the official website as a proof that the game is real.

Thank you for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by En-bit (talk • contribs) 14:53, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I never said that it wasn't a real game, it doesn't meet the requirements for an article as I stated in the AfD. Mo ainm  ~Talk  17:30, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

1 Revert Rule
The Article County Londonderry falls under WP:1RR per the notice at the top of the Article Talk page. All editors on Troubles-related articles are directed to get the advice of neutral parties via means such as outside opinions. All articles related to The Troubles, defined as: any article that could be reasonably construed as being related to The Troubles, Irish nationalism, and British nationalism in relation to Ireland falls under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24 hour period). When in doubt, assume it is related. Please do not revert again. Thanks -- Domer48 'fenian'  12:31, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Re: County Londonderry
I'm not. I thought Asarlai's addition was a useful one that made the article consistent with the other counties. But, as usual, it wasn't to be. Maybe one day certain people will treat editing NI-related articles less like cutting the wires on some kind of terrifying timebomb and more like trying to make a more readable, factual encyclopaedia. We can dream. JonChapple Talk 12:32, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * His original edit was incorrect, the name is derived from the Irish name Doire, it was then changed by royal charter to LDerry, so it wasn't correct that the name derives from the English name. Mo ainm  ~Talk  12:37, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * It didn't mention where the name "Derry" is derived from. It simply said the county was named for the city, just as the County Antrim article says it's named for its county town, Antrim. Why has no-one kicked up a fuss about the other NI county articles? Methinks you need to get that itchy revert finger looked at. JonChapple Talk 12:41, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I explained on the talk about Antrim, also think you might need to get yours looked at also. As you have reverted 3 times, and before you say they were edits they weren't they were the undoing of another editors edit. So end of conversation if you can't remain civil.

 * What about Armagh? JonChapple Talk 12:51, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Read the Etymology section to see were the name derives. I don't recall ever having edited that article. Mo ainm  ~Talk  13:00, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

I have. My point is that the names of both towns/cities derive from Gaelic, and the counties, in turn, are named for the towns. It's the same scenario. JonChapple Talk 13:04, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * But you can't say the name originates from an Anglicised name of the original Gaelic name. It can only originate from one thing which in this case is Ard Mhacha. Mo ainm  ~Talk  13:09, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Of course you can. America was named for Amerigo Vespucci, but American Airlines wasn't. JonChapple Talk 13:16, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Completely different that's not a placename. Derry airport is named after the city. Mo ainm  ~Talk  13:27, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Are the Boston Celtics named for the town in Lincolnshire? JonChapple Talk 13:29, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Very possible Boston gets its name from the English town. But I don't know about it. Mo ainm  ~Talk  13:31, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, the American Boston is named after the English town. But the basketball team aren't; they're named after the city named after the town in Lincolnshire. Can't see what I'm trying to say? JonChapple Talk 13:33, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * No not really, Boston was named after the the English city Derry was named from the Anglicised Doire so the origin of Boston is the english city the origin of Derry was Doire. Mo ainm  ~Talk  13:37, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Just like the county of Londonderry is named after the city of Londonderry. Mabuska (talk) 18:15, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * So then that must be how the County of Derry is named after the City of Derry. Mo ainm  ~Talk  20:52, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Must be, or maybe some people just take the London bit too politically... Mabuska (talk) 22:06, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Agree, I think they do. Mo ainm  ~Talk  08:59, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Holocaust denial
Hello, I believe that this article is misleading and does not adhere to an academical standard. Especially the heavy bias in favor of the political pressure group ADL does not help to get an adequate description. Please consider these data:

Peter King
Hi - The previous title of the Peter King Section referred to his support for "Irish Republicanism", which is a cause. The content, however, is almost entirely about his specific report for the IRA. Therefore while you object to the term 'terrorism' (which isn't disputed, but is pejorative) the heading has been changed to his support for the IRA. Marty jar (talk) 23:22, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
