Copyvio[edit]

Guys - it's a good and worthy subject, but we can't just copy and paste it from someone else's website without permission, or at least indication of permission having been obtained. I'm not knowledgeable re. the Presbyterian religion in Ireland, but can someone maybe do a re-write? - Pete C 18:47, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Arian?[edit]

Quoth the article:

"In the nineteenth century, awareness that some of those who did not subscribe to the Westminster Confession were in fact Arian provoked a new phase of the conflict."

Come now, you can't just say that a modern Christian church follows a 4th century Trinitarian heresy and throw that out as a "fact" that others became "aware" of. I'm going to soften the language but this needs sources. --Jfruh (talk) 20:25, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of individual congregations[edit]

A list of all 26 congregations in the Dublin/Munster presbytery was recently added. I don't really know what to say to 86.45.5.2 (talk · contribs) who undid my deletion, except firstly to repeat what I wrote at User_talk:86.45.12.49 when I reverted the list: please read WP:EL and WP:NOT, and secondly, to ask if you want the article to be a list of all 560 congregations. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 14:58, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

lights or lichts[edit]

In the History section there is mention of Old Lights and New Lights. I'm reluctant to just change them in case they were referred to differently in Ireland but I'd guess they were Auld Lichts and New Lichts as in Scotland, whether speaking in Scots or English.

Also, in the same paragraph it is stated that the New lights dominated the Synod of Ulster...allowing the more conservative..to establish a strong presence in Ulster. Surely this would have encumbered rather than enabled them? Mutt Lunker (talk) 12:42, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
