Scope

This article would be better considered a biography of relevance to diplomatic history rather than military. The subject has not held military rank nor served in any active armed forces.

Politics

I see from a google search that he was nominated for the Irish Senate in 2011. Is that worth mentioning? 77.243.22.2 (talk) 20:11, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Can you elaborate/document that? 80.121.87.228 (talk) 17:10, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvios reported July 2002

I spent a lot of today cleaning up this article, it was, and still is a mess or external links, over referencing, copyvios and and-another-thing-ing. This is why I have not sourced the versionids where copyvios started. I see from the history that it is not the first time. I would recommend semi-protection and/or a search for COIs. Either way, I'm washing my hands of this article.Bogger (talk) 17:14, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
