[edit]

@BrownHairedGirl: It's not your problem I know, but I think I've seen you write up Irish state officials? Do you know why, if this feller is called Willliam, the page is titled Liam?! This seems really bizarre, although I'm sure I'm missing something! But there's nothing in the article to say why he would be known under another name.

@Serial Number 54129: Liam is the Irish transaltion of William. Or vice versa if you prefer.
One source uses "William"; the other uses Liam. So toss a coin on which to use. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 03:46, 9 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
