Notes: Although the Ulster banner is mentioned specifically, there isn't (and apparently never has been) any notice at Talk:Ulster Banner, although there is at Talk:Flag of Northern Ireland, the articles were split in June 2007.

According to the relevant articles: The Troubles began in the "late 1960s", Irish nationalism started to emerge in the 16th century, the Great Famine (Ireland) was 1845-1852.

Articles that might not be in scope for "The Troubles" edit

These articles currently transclude Template:ArbCom Troubles restriction but which are (or might be) out of scope if this is set at "The Troubles and the Ulster banner" or just "The Troubles". Those marked * are related to the 1916 Easter Rising which might be considered relevant to The Troubles (broadly interpreted), those marked # are related to violence or Irish Nationalism between 1916 and the 1960s which may be relevant background to The Troubles and so within scope. Those marked ? might not be within the scope of any wording of the restriction, those unmarked are almost certainly within the widest scope: "The Troubles, Irish nationalism, and British nationalism in relation to Ireland"
