Merge discussion

[edit]

Pádraig O'Brien, 17th Baron Inchiquin appears to be mostly a duplicate of Phaedrig O'Brien, 17th Baron Inchiquin, under a slightly different (but I think incorrect) name. Therefore, I propose a merge of the two articles, because there's one or two bits of info in "Pádraig"'s article that might be useful in Phaedrig's page.

Surely Pádraig, as the standard spelling, is correct? The current article is under the most unusual spelling of Pádraig that I've ever seen. 79.97.154.238 (talk) 12:00, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
After over three years I've finally redirected the stub here.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 23:51, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Further Education

[edit]

I have given two citations for his training at Imperial College London's Royal School of Mines because his biographical sketches in Who's Who and Kelly's Handbook give the institution names separately (not together). It may not be realised by the uninitiated that the RSM is a subordinate site under ICL, the foundations having merged in 1907.Cloptonson (talk) 13:57, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nationality?

[edit]

Having discovered his professional career as a geologist in my researches, I have added him to the Category List of British Geologists, although I am conscious of the fact he was paternally Irish (mother was English), had Irish Gaelic Christian names, held Irish peerage, and had a home in Irish Republic in later life. I have found no statement he was a citizen of the Republic which was created in his lifetime and not yet ascertained his birthplace. He has been added to Wikipedia's international list of geologists (as was his namesake Christian O'Brien).Cloptonson (talk) 21:43, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
