There are a few [citation needed] tags due to lacking inline citation requirements for DYK. These need to be resolved prior to promotion. (t · c) buidhe 14:27, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
Dera Buidhe. I have done some work on the {{cn}} tags. I would like you to have a look and remove them if you agree. With Thanks, Johannes Schade (talk) 18:06, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
- Pinging buidhe, who may not have seen the above note. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:01, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
- Johannes Schade I see one citation needed tag by note e. SL93 (talk) 21:24, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- There are also two original research tags. SL93 (talk) 21:35, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- Dear SL93 I have removed the maintenance tags and made corresponding changes. The article is under review for MH A-Class. Besides, I wondered whether the hook should not use "both" instead of "two", e.g. "...that both grandfathers of Donough MacCarty (pictured), who fought for the Irish Catholic Confederation, were Protestants?"

The issues have been fixed so I'm reapproving this. I will add your tweaked hook as ALT2 in case the promoter wants to choose it because it isn't introducing any new information. SL93 (talk) 22:04, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
