Ireland. The British moved Prodesnt preists over to convert the Irish and English land owners stole land off the Irish and would not let any Irish person be rich. The British techers in Ireland beat Irish children for speeking a word of Gaelic(the Irish language) to force the Irish to speek English and the British have also killed Irish citizen's even women and children. The British army killed 11 Irish citizens (men and women) in a peace march in Derry on the 30th January 1972. Even the Police in Ireland were anti Irish Catholics.

IRA's years are listed as 1969–2005 which isn't that unreasonable, if other organisations are going to be held to the same standard. But then you have
Continuity IRA (1986–present), but while they might have come into existence in 1986 they weren't active for years afterwards. Then there's Óglaigh na hÉireann (Real IRA splinter group) (2009–2018), but they were formed in 2005/6 and became active in 2009. And so on...

British called the Zionist resistance in Palestine terrorists, they killed over 90 civilians in the King David hotel bombing, now the Zionists call the Palestine resistance terrorist whether its armed or peaceful.

Why, I must ask, does the CIRA or RIRA have any more claim to being represented here than the INLA, or the ONH? Simply because they use the letters IRA? The Irish
Volunteers did not use the name IRA for the first few years, yet they were an armed republican paramilitary, who participated in, and made

I agree entirely, and meant to suggest this some time ago. When the template was originally invented (and we were all a bit ratty at the time) it contained a fairly arbitrary list of "extras" which didn;t correspond to the articles in the category IRA. To get around the arbitrariness, I added all the

The IRA are known to the
British as terrorists, but that is a lie. The IRA fought for freedom, for their country, freedom against British rule and the safety of their family. The British ruled Ireland for 800 years till 1921 when the IRA won their Independance os 4 5ths of Ireland but still own the

Well I'd certainly support removing the "See Also", because it is an open invitation to all and sundry to add their favourite hobby horse and have it appear on every page. But at least recording the ] explicitly draws attention to the existence of the major category in a way that the list at the

a random list anymore. It included articles that were generally relevant to an understanding of the IRA/IRAs. The article "List of IRAs" is clearly relevant. If you want to just link to the category, there's no need to have the third section at all, as any articles the template goes on should be in
974:
It seems to be the dates are problematic. The first date for each organisation is generally (but not always) the date they were formed. But the second date isn't the date they ceased to exist (if applicable), it's the date they ceased to be active (generally speaking). It doesn't make sense to mix
970:
The years after each organisation are completely inconsistent, and even incorrect. For example after
Official IRA there is (1969–1971), but their ceasefire didn't start until 1972 and that didn't result in activity stopping, their post-ceasefire violence is well documented. In contrast Provisional

The other groups in the template do not use any active dates, they all go by dates of existence. If you try and chance the 1922-1969 IRA to say 1962 (when they effectively ceased to be active) it will probably confuse the reader no end, and make them think that IRA ceased to exist in 1962, and two

Also, and I suppose this is more a personal peeve than anything else: do we realy hae to have the Irish flag on this template? I know that nobody could seriously dispute the association of that flag with the original IRA, but its enthusiastic hijacking by the Provos makes its appearance here a bit

And it was 14 civilians the
British killed in Free Derry in 1972 with a 14th dying later and 14 others injured. It was 11 civilians they killed and between 10 - 20 injured during the Ballymurphy in 1971 and 5 killed in Springhill in July 72, and 6 killed, 9 injured in the New Lodge with UDA help.

Regardless of arguing over the merit of the various organizations referring to themselves as the Óglaigh na hÉireann, the fact remains that these various armed Irish nationalist paramilitary organizations exist, and are interrelated. We have articles on them, and I think that templates like this

There is no need to list out a range of IRA members, former and current. As it stands, the selection is pretty random. If we were to include all the chiefs of staff, all the hunger strikes and all the other major historial figures who were associated with the IRA as well as the political parties

to this template, thinking that it should be included in the list. Since it seems that the CIRA no longer considers members of ONH members of CIRA (apparently the IMC thinks that CIRA has tried to exile ONH members), and has undertaken several of it's own actions, I think it should be listed

Has this template not grown out of control? I believe the template should only contain the following information: - the various IRAs and other important but general information such as - List of IRA Chiefs of Staff - A link to the

So as to prevent an edit war, I thought it best to discuss this. Both articles on the
Official and Provisional IRAs describe their organizations as having ceased operations, so I feel it fit to edit the template to reflect this. Your

I've created an expanded template, that's more up to date with
Template customs (uses the standard navbox template) an is a more complete navigational box for Armed Irish Republican groups. It can be found for now at
