Irish

See also #Why American?

In the {{infobox writer}} we now say "Nationality: Irish (naturalized citizen)". Do we know when she became a citizen? have a source?

Template {{Use Irish English}} is the first line of code since February 2013. Do we have an editor who knows Irish English reliably? At Hiberno-English#Spelling we say "British English spelling is used throughout the island." The linked article does not cover spelling. I am generally at a loss re Oxford spelling, certainly including when it should be used at EN.wikipedia. Anyway, which British spelling is Irish?

Irish citizenship is mentioned here, further details may be available within the associated biography (Anne McCaffrey: A Life with Dragons). As far as spelling goes, Irish English would tend to be similar to common British (non-Oxf) English, based on some style guides (ITI, NUI Galway, CIB). What might occasionally differ from UK usage are non-spelling elements such as terminology and wordings. Dl2000 (talk) 01:07, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ireta

I am confused as to why this has it's own wiki category at all. In the Dragon riders series they figured out that "Dinosaur planet (a.k.a Ireta) is also the planet they call Pern. They are all part of one series. Kamon420 (talk) 11:43, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
