RE Bobby McDonagh

edit

Hi, I fixed the first citation. I don't know why the second link doesn't work but I suspect you must have added the wrong link as reFill does not alter the links themselves. reFill also doesn't fill in the publisher as there is no reliable way to parse it. You can learn more about reFill here. Runawayangel (talk) 01:58, 27 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

@KylieTastic: Thanks for the prompt review. I have changed the format of the first citation for 2 reasons, one being that it was probably not obvious that this was actually the Dictionary of Irish Biography which should put probability beyond doubt. I have resubmitted. Aineireland (talk) 22:37, 2 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

@I dream of horses: I have added 2 citations, but I feel it is more important to say that your name only gets into a dictionary of national biography BECAUSE you are notable. That is what it is about. This is overseen by the Royal Irish Academy. Also , although I have only now shown that, 2 of our 3 national dailies in Ireland published obituaries on Collis. Thatalso only happens if you are notable. Aineireland (talk) 13:37, 3 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
