A fact from Róisín Ingle appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 30 March 2021 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Irish Times columnist Róisín Ingle has penned more than 4,000 pieces, including "It was love at first riot" about meeting her life partner in Northern Ireland?
Nice article. But given the lady's confessional style, and liberal-progressive positions, and the resulting love (10's of thousands, many of whom think of Ms Ingle like a personal friend) - hate (100's to 000's) views in the population, should it have a "Reception" or "Perception" or "Reaction" section? And have you considered this: https://gript.ie/latest-person-cancelled-for-wrongthink-is-roisin-ingle/ ? And wasn't there a radio show for a while too, years back?
I see this was left last week, sorry. An interesting thought, as columnists do generate such, and certainly this subject has. Tricky to do well, however, so will think on it. SeoR (talk) 10:01, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Good to see Roisin here, one of the most entertaining of the Irish Times stable. Maybe you could include some example "best columns" and "best headlines"? 87.229.228.242 (talk) 08:09, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I hope it's OK to change the heading. Because here is another suggestion: show more of the people linked to Ms. Ingle, notably Fintan O'Toole, favourite musicians including U2 and Amanda Palmer, and ones she comments on, and some of the themes she writes on, aside from her family, such as cycling and Covid. Ms. Ingle is a friendly voice from home for those of us stuck abroad in Covid-time but it is important to be clear what she does, and does not, write about.91.193.179.141 (talk) 11:23, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
These are good suggestions, but then could you help by suggesting further specific items. Palmer, O'Toole, etc., I will look into. SeoR (talk) 00:58, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
