Aonghas Caimbeul's name

[edit]

In the relevant Army records, there is no record of service by a Aonghas Caimbeul, he appearing as 2815296 Private Angus Campbell, Seaforth Highlanders.[1] Was he also known by this anglicised version elsewhere, e.g. at school? If so, should this be reflected in the article?

Well, that would certainly fit, as Angus Campbell is the Anglicized form of his name. I certainly have no problem with it being added, but there should be a way to differentiate with the many, many articles about other men named Angus Campbell. Also, there is an article about him on the Scottish Gaelic version of Wikipedia. I don't know how to link them myself, but I hope that you or someone else does know how.K1ngstowngalway1 (talk) 16:25, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for response. For the moment I have simply added that he used Angus Campbell, the anglicised form of his name, while serving with the Army.
