4 cars or 4 car models? Daniel Quinlan 05:16, Mar 14, 2005 (UTC)

  • Presumably 4 cars, or it would be a bit more well-known. See also Shamrock (car). 83.71.30.173 17:30, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

The list of places named after Thomond should be listed, I'll look into it -- Ghostreveries 11:31, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

This article and that on Galway are inconsistent. Galway is listed as founded by the Vikings here and by the King of Connacht in 1124 in the article on Galway. The Viking era is often taken to have ended in 1014, Clontarf. In any case, the kings of Connacht are at least nominally Irish, not Viking. I think the Galway article is correct.

I was abut to say the same thing. As a Galwegian I know of no evidence that Galway was founded by Vikings, or was indeed ever a Viking settlement. (Interestingly, this would make it the only major city on the Republic that was not settled by Vikings.) Sergeirichard (talk) 12:04, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
