[edit] Towns & villages
Not sure if this talk section is used (properly) but should the information about wexford's population not be the population of the county and not the town of wexford which maybe should have a unique page194.237.142.10 15:30, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
- This is the unique page for Wexford town. For the county see County Wexford.

[edit] Wexford Opera
Perhaps Weford Opera deserves a separate entry?? Thoughts? Jdwexford 22:42, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
- Of course it does, like other Opera Festivals such as Glyndebourne and Garsington Opera. I'll be happy to volunteer.

[edit] Semi Protection
I think its time to semi protect this artical to stop this recuring UFO vandalism guys.--Ferdia O'Brien 18:21, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
- It's not that excessive at the moment so I think this can be left as it is. A problem with one of the semi-protection notices is that it is unnecessarily prominent and slaps people in the face when they look at the article.--A bit iffy 11:57, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Trivia
The trivia section seems a little pointless, the first fact is about a fictional character, and doesnt seem to do much for an artical on a town, it should really be moved to the Father Ted article, and in accoundance with the Towns & Villages decision recheached above, the Saving Private Ryan fact should be moved, since it has nothing to do with the town what-so-ever, since Curracloe isnt even flanking the town. --Ferdia O'Brien 18:21, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Removed section
I removed this:
- ==Flora and Fauna== ''Asparagopsis armata'' Harv., ''Crouania attenuata'' (C.Ag) J.Ag, ''Gastroclonium reflexum'' (Menegh. ex Zanard.) Kutz., ''Rhodymenia pseudoplamata'' var. ''ellisae'' (Duby) Guiry in Guiry et Hollenberg and ''Shottera nicaeensis'' (Lamour. ex Duby) Guiry et Hollenberg are species which, previous to 1979, had not been reported from Wexford. <ref name="Guiry, Cullinane and Whelan 79">'''Guiry, M.D., Cullinane, J.P. and Whelan, P.M.''' 1979. Notes on Irish marine algae - 3. New records of Rhodophyta from the Wexford coast. ''Ir. Nat. J.'' '''19'''(9): 304 - 307</ref>
It's badly written, completely meaningless to the average user, and doesn't indicate its notability. Its mere factual presence in the town does not make it encyclopaedic. Joe D (t) 00:12, 4 April 2007 (UTC) I came upon this ref. - someone may wish to write up the Flora & fauna and this will be one ref perhaps of use. If you don't want it I take no hurt at it being deleted.Osborne 08:55, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
