A fact from Battle of Glendale (Skye) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 8 February 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that according to legend, the MacLeods were on the verge of being defeated at the Battle of Glendale by the MacDonalds, but their magical Fairy Flag was then unfurled, inspiring them to a hard-fought victory?

Confusion with other battles[edit]

Might be worth explaining the things about confusion with other battles up front rather than towards the end? There also seem to be some similarities/confusion with accounts of the 1395(??) battle at Sligachan, which is rather closer for driving people back to ships in Loch Eynort.
