:Thanks for the invite, Gladius. You can count me as being willing to participate, however I should warn you that I do most of my wikipedia work over on [[:cy:Defnyddiwr:Anatiomaros|Wicipedia Cymraeg]] as we really need the manpower over there. Although I've contributed my share of articles here I usually concentrate on interwiki links and "patrolling" certain pages, mainly Wales/Celtic-related, especially the ones that seem to attract the [[Middle Earth]]/[[Robert Graves|Celtic Mist]]/[[Neodruid]] brigade (!). So my contributions are likely to be corrections and so forth, for the most part. [[User:Enaidmawr|Enaidmawr]] ([[User talk:Enaidmawr#top|talk]]) 22:52, 13 July 2008 (UTC) |

::That's great! I've actually got an account on Wicipedia Cymraeg, not that I can really use it. I'm trying to learn Welsh so that I can contribute eventually, as well as pick up what real welshmen know.

Hi, welcome to my talk page. Feel free to post messages for me here, using a new section if relevant (just open the "New section" tab at the top of this page). I will normally reply to a message here rather than on your own talk page, so you may wish to temporarily bookmark this page if you expect a reply.
If I've left a message for you on your own talk page I'll have bookmarked that page so you can reply to me there rather than here. This has the advantage of avoiding fragmented discussions.
Discussion
Have you seen the discussion at Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2008-06-22 United Kingdom? -- Maelor 18:27, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
A Taskforce you may be interested in
I'm trying to start a taskforce on Sub-Roman Britain, and noticed you edited some stuff on the Hen Ogledd and after looking over your page, I thought I'd invite you to join. We could always use someone who actually speaks Welsh! ---G.T.N. —Preceding comment was added at 03:35, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Cumbric
Thanks for the correction to the entry for lum at Cumbric language. The aditional figurative meaning of "beacon" for llumon was taken from W. J. Watson's "The Celtic Placenames of Scotland", but I agree that this is a single source and may be speculative only. -- Picapica (talk) 09:13, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks. My source was Geiriadur Prifysgol Cymru, which also records the secondary meaning "ashes, embers" (hence Watson's idea of "beacon" perhaps?). There is a third possible meaning of "bat", or at least some sort of nocturnal creature. Enaidmawr (talk) 16:18, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
