[edit]

Hi there, was a bit surprised to see there was nothing on about this place on Wikipedia already so I threw together a first draft. Other things I think it needs:

  • Images with more reliable rights -- I just took the current ones from the official website on the basis that it's promotional material.
  • Details on the funding for the place, I heard the Arts Council has given it grants but have no source.
  • Details on Langheld's family history, different reports suggest Berlin and Dresden...what's the connection with Ireland?

Any other suggestions welcome Yablochko (talk) 19:12, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Victoria's Way or Victor's Way

[edit]

It has been asserted that Victoria's Way is now Victor's Way - there are certainly a number of google hits for Victor's Way but I can find no independent reliable source for this. If anyone has a source, or maybe a photo of an entrance sign etc please add so if this is true we can correct it. KylieTastic (talk) 13:42, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • best source I've been able to find is the comments on tripadvisor here in the Q&A section it appears "Victoria's Way" was closed down (in 2015) "The Indian Sculpture Park, alias Victoria's Way, has been closed down permanently." due to to many visitors. And if the comments are to be believed reopened "April 15th as Victor's Way" now adults (18+) only and 5 Euro. KylieTastic (talk) 12:34, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Victor’s Way

[edit]

One of the Ganesha has a distinctly Irish flavour. The ‘Irish Ganesha’ is playing the uileann pipes, is wearing a torc around her neck, a flat cap with a shamrock emblem and her mouse buddy is dressed as a leprechaun and playing the bodhran. Also featured is a pint of Guinness, the Tara brooch and various Celtic patterns and symbols. 212.129.81.71 (talk) 12:51, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Notability?

[edit]

How is notability established here? The references in the article are, quite frankly, very poor. And do not establish notability. Nor, in all honesty, does the text.

As it stands, the sources include a link to TripAdvisor reviews (user generated content not typically considered reliable) and a blogspot post (which, in addition to being user-generated/non-RS, doesn't even support the text it is placed alongside). There is also very heavy reliance on YouTube videos (interviews with the owner - also questionable in terms of reliability and notability). While the bulk of the sources are links to the subject's own website (again, not ideal in terms of sourcing and not contributory to notability at all).

In my own searches, the few news sources which seem to deal with the subject as a primary topic include things like this (which is a piece in the regional Wicklow People where the author has converted TripAdvisor ratings/reviews into some prose). And this piece (which seems, granted, to be in the national Irish Independent outlet, but is mostly interview [and hence not really independent] and ends with a quasi-promotional invitation for the reader to "log on to homepage.tinet.ie/~victoriasway/index.htm" "For more information"). I can find nothing in other national news outlets (like the Irish Times or Irish Examiner or RTÉ or similar).

What am I missing? Where is the significant or in-depth coverage in reliable/independent/verifiable sources? Guliolopez (talk) 03:32, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
