Disputed
Well i have added a dispute tag to this article to warn people that it may be inaccurate as nobody responded to my latest comments over 24 hours ago. I have some big concerns about the introduction, and whilst i accept progress is being made to alter them i dont think we should leave something so misleading in an encyclopedia without at the very least giving people a warning. If i started removing content im sure someone would reverse it as has happened on another related article, which is why i chose to place the dispute tag instead reducing the urgency for major changes.

- Been several months very little has changed, so im adding POV tag aswell and because of recent additions which have not been sourced adding morerefs tag. thanks BritishWatcher (talk) 09:03, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
Missing Info
In the "Linguistics" section, a name is clearly missing from the following sentence: "For certain purposes, such as the Festival Interceltique de Lorient, Galicia, Asturias and [MISSING] are considered three of the eight Celtic nations." What is the third "nation?" I read the "Festival" article, which stated that the third nation was St Breton Island, and inserted that. Someone then deleted my addition without offering an explanation.Neoplatonic (talk) 13:46, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
Linguistics
The article states:
- It should be noted that within these areas, the majority speak English (in Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and The Isle of Man), Scots (In Scotland), or French (In Brittany)
Do the majority of people in Scotland actually speak Scots?--Rhyswynne (talk) 09:25, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
- I think it means Scots language rather than Scottish Gaelic. Ghmyrtle (talk) 09:27, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
- I know the difference between the two, thanks! <wink> On the Scots language article, the estimated number of speakers varies from 200,000 to 1.5 milion, both well below half Scotlands population of 5 milion+, so the majority therefore don't speak it as far as I can see.--Rhyswynne (talk) 15:51, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
