This looks like it's not even Middle Irish anymore. —CodeCat 20:59, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- I've changed it (possibly partially) to Modern Irish, given that its only attestation is Flight of the Earls.
- Also: I appreciate all you're doing for Old Irish right now, but it's starting to feel like a Gish Gallop. I'm waking up with scores of changes in my inbox — some of them trivial, some of them very much not (and no edit summary), so I have to look at each page to see what might have changed; in many cases you are removing information (even if you intend to put it back later); you aren't just improving things, you're refactoring quite a lot so that I am beginning to get lost in OIr entries I wrote (and I really do think that the stem of nouns and adjectives should be in the header line, not (just) the declension table); you're being black-and-white with data in shades of grey, and those of us with jobs are going to have to quite a bit of work to answer your questions and fill your requests for more information and satisfy the holes in your understanding. Can I at least ask that you back off on the Ritalin and slow down a bit so the rest of us can catch up? --Catsidhe (verba, facta) 21:30, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- I sympathize with both of you. On the one hand, we definitely have way too many entries that are marked as Old Irish but aren't; on the other hand, waking up on a Thursday morning when I'm on vacation and finding no fewer than 19 entries RFVed is rather overwhelming. I'll try to work through these as I can, but it won't be fast. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 08:18, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- There's no rush of course. Take all the time you need. The way I see it, I'd rather mark them for verification than do nothing and ignore the problem. —CodeCat 14:19, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

- This one's taken care of; moved to snechtamhla and marked as obsolete (Modern) Irish. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 16:02, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
