Deasbaireachd:James Callaghan

Apologies for my English but is there a reason for the use of acute accents in this article title? Espresso Addict (an deasbaireachd) 19:47, 6 dhen Mhàrt 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Halò agus fàilte do dh'Uicipeid! It's the Irish form of the name hence the acutes rather than graves. The relevant bit of the policy on names is number 4 here: https://gd.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uicipeid:Ainmean_is_sloinnidhean Now Cleachdaiche:Akerbeltz made the change, but I'm not sure why because he didn't give a source and the policy is quite clear that it's only for Irish speakers with a clearly-established form of the name, which I'm reasonably sure the former PM wasn't. Akerbeltz? --CreagNamBathais (an deasbaireachd) 20:01, 7 dhen Mhàrt 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The version before the move [1] was B' e Prìomh-mhinistear na Rìoghachd Aonaichte a bh' ann an Leonard Séamas Ó Ceallacháin and it was either changing the lead to match the English name version or move the page, not quite sure why I went with moving the page, it's been a while. If we want to follow strict policy, we can move it back :) Akerbeltz (an deasbaireachd) 20:29, 7 dhen Mhàrt 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Least surprising to go with the English name, I think. --CreagNamBathais (an deasbaireachd) 20:41, 7 dhen Mhàrt 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is mòran taing airson a' mhìneachaidh. Tha iomadh cùis "air an oir" ann mar seo! --CreagNamBathais (an deasbaireachd) 20:48, 7 dhen Mhàrt 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mòran taing! I fear my fledgling Gaelic is not up to conversation, sorry! In general I think it's a good idea to go with the English name for those with no obvious Scottish/Irish heritage. Espresso Addict (an deasbaireachd) 02:57, 8 dhen Mhàrt 2019 (UTC)[reply]
