Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8Davy, can youi please note when posting newswire items that there are options available for region. As all stories are of course of national or even international concern, each story should be given the regional label most appropriate to its content. There is no additional prominence given to National stories. This story, for example, should have been labelled Antrim, as the event being reported on took place there.
Using correct labels makes it easier for Indymedia users to browse stories at a later date. It also means that editors don't have to spend time changing the labels.
Thanks for contributing to Indymedia!
Cheers, now aware of Antrim slot, Davy
Is some of Belfast not in Down?
There should really be a Belfast option.
There should also be a Northern Ireland option. Is the Assembly elections really national news?
I would agree with that, that there should be a Belfast slot
IMD reader: "There should also be a Northern Ireland option. Is the Assembly elections really national news?"
About as national as the Free State Dáil elections, i.e. not at all - but it still concerns a fair percentage of the country, and it also has repurcussions in the other 26 counties, considering the involvement of the Free State Govt and the fact that SF (among other parties) is based throughout Ireland.
We had a Northern Ireland option in the original design of the site. And republicans objected. We debated it, and I lost, and it was taken away. Events in the North should go with the particular county; something across the Six would probably have to be National.
I remember that, I objected to "Northern Ireland" but not "northern Ireland".
Not on republican or anarchist grounds, but rather on case sensitivity.
"N"orthern does not equal "n"orthern.
a Belfast section would be a really good idea.
could be "B" or "b".
