My ancestors lived mainly in Italy, not in Spain at the time of Napoleon. Yeah, Argentina lost the Falklands war, I assume that fact, I have not trouble with, but that was 25 years ago, and life continued as usual, so I think you lost the bet. Frankly, who appears somewhat annoyed about the failure of the Brits to beat a small bunch of well armed peasants after 30 or so years of struggle seems to be you. Thanks for calling me an "insurgent". It's better to be an insurgent that a coward asshole who makes a personal attack from the anonymity.

Articles in need of urgent attention

  • John Sweetman. Article on 2nd President of SF needs more footnotes, and appears to have been compiled largely from reports in The Times of London, which is hardly a neutral source on an Irish Republican.

Name

I added an 'also known as' for "Warrenpoint massacre" -- this is what the BBC refers to it as -- even if I don't necessarily agree. If someone finds it inappropriate, be my guest and remove it. - Francis Tyers · 22:58, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Inclusion in Category:People_killed_by_IRA

Until and unless we can include the names of all 18 people killed in this incident, I think this article should remain categorised as above since to do otherwise might seem to belittle the relevance of their deaths.

The difficulty with that approach is, of course, that each individual may not pass the notability test. ...Gaimhreadhan • 18:00, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

If there was an individual article about an individual the was killed then this category would apply.--Vintagekits 18:02, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
The category is now a sub-cat of Category:Provisional IRA actions, which should solve the problem. One Night In Hackney303 18:08, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
I think that is a topological impossibility, Sir.
No references have been provided in the article to substantiate that this was one of the Category:Provisional IRA actions and even if they were, Category:Provisional IRA actions should be a sub-category of Category:Republican actions. WP advice is that it is not wrong to have overlapping and simultaneous categorisation.
In line with WP policy I have added this article to the categorisation Category:British Army since their units indubitably took part. If we can not find a reference substantiating IRA involvement then I would suggest adding this article to two new super categories: Category:Republican killings and Category:Loyalist killings (since one British civilian was killed by forces loyal to the crown). W. Frank 14:36, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
The IRA involvement is referenced, by the footnote at the end of the paragraph. There's ample more references available for it as well. Category:Provisional IRA actions should not be a sub-category of Category:Republican killings, at it currently includes actions where people did not die. One Night In Hackney303 14:38, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Is there a sub category of Category:British Army with Category:British Army killings?--Vintagekits 14:43, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Battle infobox

I think the article is in need of a battle infobox. Any opinions about?. DagosNavy 00:54, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Yes. Fuck off, but thanks for the idea. Maybe I'll give the Bloody Sunday article one. I bet your quite annoyed that Argentina lost the Falklands War. No?. So like an insurgent, no better than the your ancestors who lived in Spain at the time of Napoleon, you take to using someone elses conflict to get your aims and across. --posted by User:84.64.213.101


My ancestors lived mainly in Italy, not in Spain at the time of Napoleon. Yeah, Argentina lost the Falklands war, I assume that fact, I have not trouble with, but that was 25 years ago, and life continued as usual, so I think you lost the bet.
