Hiya. If you have a reliable/verifiable reference to support a change in membership of that party, then please provide it. And we can update the text to make whatever it is you want made clearer - well - clearer. Otherwise please don't remove reliably/verifiably referenced statements. Cheers.

Warning

Your recent editing history at National Party (Ireland) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
There is already a new discussion on the article's talk page, which is on your watchlist. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 17:37, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would posit you're the one who's in the wrong here. I've stated that no sources refer to the party as neo-nationalist and the fact that the party obviously does not subscribe to this Neo-nationalist ideology in everything it says and does. So I have edited accordingly. Whereas you have baselessly implied that I'm Justin Barrett and made little discussion regarding the topic.Irishpolitical (talk) 21:42, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is not the arena to discuss the merits or otherwise of your edits; it's a warning that you've breached 3RR. Use the talk page of the article to discuss edits on the article. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 10:07, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've posted on the Talk page. I disagree I'm the one causing any "edit war" here.Irishpolitical (talk) 10:33, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Query re ref names

Can I ask you what tool you use to add ref names? In this edit, for instance, you took an existing "cite news" ref and changed it from <ref> to <ref name=":4">. You must have used some tool to do that, because there's nothing instinctive about <ref name=":4">. That format is against WP:REFNAME, and I find it very ugly. I know it drives Bastun mad as well :-). I'd really like to find out what it is that generates those ref names so I can go on the relevant page and ask them to fix it.

A chara, I tend to use the visual editor which has an automatic citation. Apologies for inconvenience caused.Irishpolitical (talk) 18:28, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that (and no apologies required, it's a widespread issue). It had never occurred to me that it might be the visual editor that was the cause. Now I just need to find out what is the right page for asking people to fix visual editor. Scolaire (talk) 08:58, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Discretionary sanctions notification

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in the Troubles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

FDW777 (talk) 16:57, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also the Liadh Ní Riada article, as well as other Troubles related articles, is under a 1-revert-restriction, meaning no more than 1 revert in a 24 hour period. FDW777 (talk) 16:58, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Neveselbert. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Albert Reynolds, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 15:27, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for June 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Peter Costello (author), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Patrick Costello. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:02, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

CS1 error on James Reynolds (Irish politician)

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page James Reynolds (Irish politician), may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

A "missing title" error. References show this error when they do not have a title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 17:37, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Allegations against Cathal Ó Searcaigh

Hi, you may not know, but there has been considerably debate about Cathal Ó Searcaigh's activities in Nepal, and the generally accepted position is that after police investigation which resulted in no hard evidence and no charges, allegations of underage sexual activity can not be supported. You may have strong feelings, but the legal position is what it is. If you make such allegations in writing you are technically committing libel, something which the rules of Wikipedia take a dim view of, quite understandably. Please, let's not get into an editing war. Others have tried to persist in doing that and the usual result has been periods of banishment from Wikipedia, semi-protection of the affected page, but otherwise no change in the position. I'm happy to discuss further if you wish, but I'd prefer to do that in a setting such as this rather than with competitive editing and reverting.
