[edit]

Could someone please run the numbers? It seems highly specious that a guy with churches named Aidan's and Edan's and sources giving Aedan and Maedoc is most commonly known by his accented Gaelic form. This page should almost certainly be moved to either Aidan or Maedoc of Ferns. The present lead is just his Gaelic form and should be included wrapped in {{lang-ga}}. — LlywelynII 11:46, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I made a mistake, sorry everyone, and added that St Maedoc founded St Madoc/Madog of Ferns, Haroldston West, Pembrokeshire, in the wrong place in the article, and it got reverted.

Would someone please put it in the right place for me. There are plenty of articles evidencing this, such as this one:

This was my first attempt at editing a page.
