The article seems to have a decidedly pro-protest/anti-government POV. It seems as if it was created to push a particular political viewpoint.
I think some of these issues were raised during the deletion discussion. 92.251.57.200 ( talk) 19:12, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
I've removed some of the "protests" where, apparently, some people heckled some politicians and nothing else happened. I've removed a report of some people from a rural village having a meeting with an MEP. I've removed language along the lines of "people descended from all over the country and all four provinces" and replaced it with "people marched to Dáil Éireann", or similar.
If adding material, please at least make sure it's of encyclopedic value - WP:5, WP:NPOV and WP:NOTABILITY all apply to this article. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 14:18, 21 November 2014 (UTC)
Students not going ahead with a protest; and one schoolboy reading a speech at a debate, while his fellow students look on, bored, and the Tánaiste smiles patronisingly? Really? I realise there's an agenda being driven, here, but really, none of this is notable or encyclopedic. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 01:46, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

I have removed the additional "background" sections that were recently added. FF/GP polls in 2008, Anglo-Irish bank, the bank guarantee, the other causes of the economic downturn, etc., are covered much more properly and in much more depth in their own and other articles - already linked here. This article is a list of the major resulting protests, most of which would not be notable enough to justify their own articles - nothing more. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 11:15, 28 March 2015 (UTC)

I live in Ireland and there's no real sustainable and continuous anti-austerity protest movement here any more, if at all to begin with. I recommend updating this to mention that protests have largely disappeared. Any protests these days are your average march that's been a feature of Irish political discourse for decades.
