There's actually almost no evidence that Edmund was King of Scots. If anything, he was his uncle Domnall's tanaiste (i.e. designated successor). - Calgacus 23:16, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
Maybe, but I have my doubts as to the creation of the article, whatever it's called:
'''Amlaíb mac Iduilb''' (died 977) was [[King of Scots]] during the 970s.<ref>Duncan, pp. 21–22.</ref> He was the son of [[Indulf of Scotland|Idulb mac Causantín]] and brother of [[Culen of Scotland|Cuilén mac Iduilb]].
He is known from the notice of his death in the [[Annals of Tigernach]],<ref>AT977.4; see also CS s.a. 977, AClon s.a. 970.</ref> which reports that he was killed by [[Kenneth II of Scotland|Cináed mac Maíl Coluim]]. His name is not included in any extant king lists, nor is he named as a king in 973 when Cináed met with [[Edgar of England]] at [[Chester]],<ref>''ESSH'', pp. 478–479.</ref> so that the length of his reign is unknown.
Now, even with the refs (Duncan, Kingship; ESSH), and the external links (CELT and Cornell), and the Kingy template, and a see also or two, four sentences is a miserable stub indeed. As for the article naming, I am a slave to the MoS (ahem). Angus McLellan (Talk) 22:46, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
