• You use {{lga}} which has no option to delink Irish after the first instance. I've asked at the template talk page to see if this can be implemented because Irish is seriously overlinked! Perhaps consider using a template which does support unlinked Irish? - I have had no joy here, all the Irish-language/name templates link to something?
• Seek to remove refs from the lead. Everything there should be found in the article itself and can be referenced there.  Done
• " is one of the highest mountains in Ireland, being the 19th–highest peak in Ireland " probably just remove "one of the highest mountains in Ireland, being" as you're essentially saying the same thing twice.  Done
• Plus you've linked Ireland on the second instance. Rewording might address that.  Done
• "19th–highest" hyphen, not en-dash.  Done
• Link Kerry or East Kerry if there's a good link?  Done
• "that P.S. Dinneen" P. S. Dineen.  Done
• " "shaking", "quaking", " add an "or" before quaking.  Done
• "or "fickle".[6][2]" order.  Done
• "massif" is overlinked.  Done
• Be consistent in the formatting of Devil's Punchbowl or The Devil's Punchbowl or The Devil's Punchbowl or the Devil's Punchbowl...  Done, all the Devil's Punchbowl except one in bold that has no italics.
• Could link red deer/sika deer.  Done
• "over 100–metres" no need for dash/hyphen here.  Done
• "sub 100–metre" sub-100-metre (hyphens)  Done
• " (see list below) " no need, you could link "25 other peaks" to the appropriate sub-section I guess?  Done - linked to the sub-section
• " Kilgarvin " our article spells it Kilgarvan?  Done
• "are Dromderalough 650 metres (2,130 ft), and" etc put the heights in parentheses.  Done
• Torc Mountain is overlinked.  Done
• "10 kilometres (6.2 mi) " adj=on.  Done
• " at 670 metres, " etc, consistent converts.  Done
• "13.5 kilometres (8.4 mi) route," adj=on again.  Done
• "1169–1216 (1911).[5]" full stop not needed.  Done
• "MountainViews Online Database," overlinked and be consistent with italics or not italics?  Done, no italics
• "The following is a download from the" awkward introduction. Perhaps something more like "The MountainViews Online Database lists 26 Mangerton Mountain Group peaks over 100 metres (330 ft).[1]"  Done
• What is Topo Map here? - it is short for "Topographical map", I have linked to the WP article on it?
• Should probably be Topo. map. And likewise, Height rank, Prom. rank etc.  Done
• Ideally we make this table MOS:ACCESS compliant for screen-readers. That can be achieved relatively easily by adding row and col scopes. In this edit I added the col scopes and started the row scopes. You can finish it off?  Done. thanks for that and I think I have got it right?
• "of Tooreencormick." no full stop needed.  Done
• Some of the see also are already linked in the article so not needed in this section.  Done - I left in the ones that are only in the infobox, and could be easily missed.
• "MountainViews database" full stop and consistent format.  Done
• Irish Times should be in italics.  Done
• DoBIH is overlinked.  Done

That's all I have for a first pass, so it's on hold. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 09:38, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you (again) for that The Rambling Man, very helpful comments and I have been able to make them all but one. I have had no luck finding an Irish-language template that does no link to something (although, I am not skilled in searching templates). I think it is probably best to have some kind of template so clarify the language change? Thanks again for all your work on this, and look forward to your comments.

{{Lang-ga}} offers the chance to turn linking off. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 11:40, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Thanks The Rambling Man, have made that change now. Britishfinance (talk) 11:58, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Ok, it's considerably improved and I believe it easily surpasses the GA criteria, so I'll pass it. Good work. I'll take another of your GANs shortly, I suggest some of the common themes from this and the previous review I made are applied to your other GANs so we can save a little time going forward? Cheers, good work. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 12:07, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for that and noting your suggestions that I will try to get in place for other candidates. Might I suggest Carrauntoohil next? thanks again for your work on this. Britishfinance (talk) 12:13, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
