Private 'codes' - relevance?

there are extensive sections on privately operated concatenated lat/long 'codes' that are effectively unused and were never part of postal addresses. Do these belong here at all? There is the vaguest chance Loc8 could justify its own article but it is not a post code or part of a postal address --37.228.234.145 (talk) 19:18, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request for timeline

There are some timeline about official decisions?

  • 2003? A national Postcode solution was proposed by the Irish Government
  • ... for completion by Jan 2008?
  • ... in April 2014, Eircode was launched, but it is used for sorting mail (as postcode)? another solition after it?

About copyrighted and patented systems, there are a timeline about government changes to free systems? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krauss (talk • contribs) 02:40, 23 September 2018

"juxtaposed"?

I think that "juxtaposed" should be "transposed"; but, not being Irish, I will not edit it myself. 94.30.84.71 (talk) 11:47, 1 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to be an article about the pros and cons of Eircode

I found this article on Irish addressing extremely confusing. It seems to be an article critiquing the Eircode system, rather than one about Irish addressing.

There's already a Wikipedia article on Eircode. Also the open source and private geocoding systems are interesting, but they're nothing to do with Irish addressing and aren't used on post or courier items.

If I were reading this as the basis for say, designing a form for the web to process Irish addresses, I'd be completely confused!
