There are suggestions below for improving the article to meet the good article criteria. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. | |||||||||||||||

Could (or should) the structure of this article be changed? I'll explain why I think it should but here's how I would have it looking:
1. Civil partnerships
1.1 Government legislation 2008–10
1.1.1 Recognition of foreign partnerships
1.2 Legal position before civil partnerships
1.2.1 Norris bill 2004
1.2.2 Labour Party bills 2006, 2007
2. History
2.1 Law Reform Commission (2000-06)
2.2 Constitutional review (2004-06)
2.3 Colley Report (2004-06)
2.4 Other statutory bodies and NGOs
3. Lawsuits
3.1 KAL Recognition case
4. Same-sex marriage
4.1 Government proposals 2011–present
4.2 Marriage referendum (new section detailing results of and arguments in the referendum)
4.3 Marriages (perhaps a section here detailing the first weddings to legally occur and when + future statistics - presuming of course, that the referendum actually succeeds)
5. Public debate
5.1 Public opinion
5.1.2 Polling
Why? Well I think the info under my history section is a bit cumbersome. Not a lot of what is discussed actually lead to any substantial policy outcome, and most of it is just somewhat relevant history of the debate in the mid 2000's about the nature of family in Irish family. I personally think they'd be better off in the one section. The other three seem to naturally fit together in a relatively chronological order. Maybe the history & civil partnerships section could be switched.
Anyway, what do people think? Jono52795 ( talk) 08:02, 2 May 2015 (UTC) Gone ahead and made those changes, can easily be changed back to the way it was before if unpopular Jono52795 ( talk) 01:15, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was move per request. As to the idea that the title should just be Marriage in the Republic of Ireland, that would impose a topical scope on content that is far more specifically focused. Of course, if the content changed to match that suggested scope, the title would properly be revisited (and would then be in a horse before cart relationship).-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 15:08, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
Recognition of same-sex unions in the Republic of Ireland → Same-sex marriage in the Republic of Ireland – It is now clear that the referendum was successful and same-sex marriage has been voted as legal in Ireland. The article title should conform to others, like Same-sex marriage in Canada, Same-sex marriage in Brazil, Same-sex marriage in France, etc. Kudzu1 ( talk) 17:23, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
Hi Panda2018 0. I'm unclear why Irish translations of the names of articles legislation or phrases like 'civil partnerships' are being translated into Irish? WP:USEENGLISH and WP:IMOS would seem to apply, and there's no need to include Irish translations. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 21:48, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Lots of uncited passages, and the prose in various places in the "Same-sex marriage" section needs to be updated to expand upon the latest statistics listed in the tables. Z1720 ( talk) 05:35, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
