[edit] Saint Patrick's Day

Please stop adding that unless you can cite from reputable sources;

• previous years' funding was prevented by Unionist councillors
• who were pro-British
• which meant their motivation was anti-Irish

and can phrase it in a neutral manner.

Until you have this, we have only your opinion on the matter, which isn't good enough. Thanks. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 18:56, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Red Hand

I am not questioning your knowledge of the subject, because whatever knowledge you and I may have is irrelevant. What I am questioning is the information provided in the references, none of which make clear that the red hand referred to is the Red Hand of Ulster. My own researches on the subject have revealed nothing definitive. Cheers! ---RepublicanJacobite_{The'FortyFive'} 21:28, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
