Form of name[edit]

Both the references given call him "MacEochaidh", with no space. Is there any source for the spaced version? PamD 21:23, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

An error of mine. Mea Culpa. Is it possible the article name could be changed to get rid of the space? CivisHibernius (talk) 21:34, 2 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Done. You could probably have done it: use the "Move" button it's suprisingly simple, unless the destination name is already in use.

Another quick point: we don't link dates as you did for his birth year. There's a lot to learn about editing WP, but it's an interesting journey! PamD 22:14, 2 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That name again[edit]

There seems to be confusion about his name, given the fact that there are sources with a space between the "Mac" and "Eochaidh" and sources with no space. What should it be, gently users.

Oh sorry about moving the page (again). Should have sought consensus before doing such a thing.
