First of all Northern Ireland is still part of the UK, not Ireland proper. That is sort of like saying that Alaska is part of Canada instead of the US. Second, a press release calling itself the "largest anime event in Ireland" is not usually accepted as a reliable source for such a claim. -- TheFarix ( Talk) 21:03, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
The cited article that claims Tomo-Dachi is Irelands largest anime convention is written before the convention occurs. Due to this they can not know the final number of people that attended. They may have used the information given in the Tomo-Dachi press realease. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Anaconda Riot ( talk • contribs) .
Are there any other anime conventions on the Island of Ireland (as the article puts it)? If there are, can their numbers be confirmed? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Anaconda Riot ( talk • contribs) .
By the sounds of it Tomo-Dachi is a Northern Irish anime convention as opposed to an Irish anime convention. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Anaconda Riot ( talk • contribs) .
The recent edit makes this article appear more like a press release or friendly write-up rather than an encyclopedic article. ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihon jo e 17:46, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
This is incorrect as Trinity College's DUCCS society ran an anime convention in 2002. A conflict of date with the Irish_Games_Association's Gaelcon resulted in the convention not running again due to the lack of attendence.
Looked into it alittle so far. I cannot find any online reference to the event, however i have emailed the society involved. I'm doubtful however because the societies own news page refers to the Dublin based 'Eirtakon' as the 'first anime convention in Rep. Ireland http://www.ducss.tcd.ie/page.php?name=index Butch-cassidy 11:06, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
I removed the claim that this convention had the second appearance of US guests. There were US guest appearances at Shinenkai 1998, Aya Again in 2003, and Amecon in 2004. [1] ...so it's more like fourth...at which point it's just silly to claim such a thing. -- PatrickD 22:39, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for clearing that up, I lacked such information and was wrong. -- Iamdani 23:17, 13 February 2007
Image:Tomo-dachi con.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This article is wrote in a manner that makes it sound like the 2007 Tomodaichi Con hasn't happened, when it is obvious it is 2008. Shouldn't this be updated? Unfortunatly, I have only found out about this event, so I do not have any avaliable information on this event whatsoever. Irish Plusle ( talk) 13:54, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
I have edited the page to hold historical information only; it had too much forthcoming information that was not altered when the dates passed. I couldn't find any information online either about the convention, so I have added a 'last held' date. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kymully ( talk • contribs) 13:29, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
