 * They aren't fourth-declension, though, since the genitive singular is different from the nominative. But maybe it should be mentioned that they aren't fourth declension despite ending in a vowel. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 19:42, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback, clarification added. Marcas.oduinn (talk) 09:39, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Dative plural
The other appendices seem to refer to the (Archaic?) dative plural. Do so here too? Marcas.oduinn (talk) 22:41, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Sure, why not? —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 19:42, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

Will do! Marcas.oduinn (talk) 09:40, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

 * I think it's a mixture of various types, but probably the primary source is the io- and iā-stems like, (> ),  (> ),  (> ),  (> ). —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 19:42, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

Initial mutations
The other appendices do not discuss initial mutations (other than vocative). Should they at least be mentioned? Marcas.oduinn (talk) 08:07, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

 * They have their own appendix at Appendix:Irish mutations. Nothing about mutations is specific to declension class in Irish, is it? I'm pretty sure all declension classes mutate the same way. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 09:21, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

That's right. Maybe just a reference. Marcas.oduinn (talk) 09:43, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Link to weak and strong plurals
The other appendices detail the properties of weak and strong plurals, which I I've copied here. Should we also provide an appropriate reference link? Marcas.oduinn (talk) 08:30, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Such as? —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 09:21, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

... I haven't found one! Marcas.oduinn (talk) 09:44, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Duplication of pages
Other pages on Wiki (in general; but maybe not Wiktionary?) have detailed information about Irish declensions (and grammar in general). I think I've added value with the lists, but I don't want to duplicate. Any thoughts? Marcas.oduinn (talk) 08:33, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
 * We can always link to Wikipedia articles in order to avoid duplication. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 09:22, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
