Hi Picapica - neat page. I feel like I'm walking on a white carpet with muddy shoes. Good photos you are adding and I'm not just saying that because they are in focus and not in semi-darkness! But you might look at some of the Mullingar pics; at least 3 are dire and need removal and there seems to be reasonable replacements in the gallery (and you may even have some of your own). If I move them I will fall foul of a certain editor with a fondness for the dark and smudgey! Maybe take a look - bet you pick the same three that I'm talking about :) (Sarah777 (talk) 15:57, 28 December 2007 (UTC))

Don't worry about the carpet, Sarah. Muddy footprints beat tumbleweed any day! I know what you mean about Mullingar, though. (My own not-so-humble-opinion is that mobile-camera pics really oughtn't to be used except as a very last resort.) Sorry to infer that you've had some grief over this question in the past. It's one of the sadder aspects of this otherwise so life-enhancing anarcho-constructive Wikipedia project that from time to time it does seem to attract the attention of cyberGrinches who just hate to think that anyone might be enjoying making positive and inclusive edits... Oh well, we must seize our pleasures while we may! -- Picapica (talk) 20:46, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Mullingar - much better. Like the Mary St one; lived in Mullingar for a while some years back. If only they'd remove those horrible overhead wires! (Sarah777 (talk) 23:13, 28 December 2007 (UTC))

Inniscrone/Enniscrone

Hi. As someone who has edited the Inniscrone and/or Enniscrone page recently, you may be interested in this. Regards, --The.Q^(t)(c) 15:44, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the notification, The.Q. Have added my support in what I hope is the right place. -- Picapica (talk) 22:23, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Orthography / typography

That's a fair point Picapica; my reaction was that most people are unfamiliar with the Irish language at all, let alone its changes in orthography etc, so I felt it would be appropriate to represent the text in the picture as closely as possible, as well as give the modern rendering. I have edited the text to explain the point more fully.--Kwekubo (talk) 00:37, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

anyone

who plagiarises from his eminence the grutness has gotta be ok - I was completely and absolutely stumped as to where a non-web echo of vacuous rubbish might be found to verify the straight on the trans australian railway thingo - i mean if the russians did something - its off there are not trumpets and zenophobe announces ments of the genius of the surveyors somewhere - for the russians or the australians :( SatuSuro 11:25, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Just what the doctor ordered :) Thanks. -- Picapica (talk) 20:28, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
