I have removed the See also text at the bottom of the box. It is now what it was originally intended to be a simple of all the presidents of Ireland. Some of the additions were OK like Governor-General and Áras an Uachtaráin but then it started getting out of hand with deV's car, Blue Hussars and the Vice-regal Throne, a tad off topic, I'd say!

I think that it was quite useful actually. Djegan 23:31, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't seen any other Irish or International box that has a 'See also'. They all adhere to the same principle, that is simply a list of the people who have held the office. It you start putting in related topics it leads to 'scope creep'. Snappy56 16:03, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Snappy56. The "see also" material belongs in the main article, not in the template. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:07, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
