@Covert19: The retention of the title "Prince of Tyrconnell" in the summary at good faith edit [1] and does not trump sourced content. Do you have a source? Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 20:34, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I could do with eloquence of Pim or Yeats to find a form of words with the right weight for the article; possibly putting some form of words in a note where they would be undue in the article. This is stacked with a load of other things I need to do. Maybe needs a WP:BOLD trying of a couple of things to see something that works well.
