I added references and additional info, therefore I removed the stub and cite references tags. Hopefully this suffices and everyone agrees the article is better. Let me know if you feel more needs to be done. Keithh ( talk) 18:00, 13 May 2008 (UTC) reply

Year of election and investiture

The Arts Council Annual Reports ( available here and here) give the year of election and/or investiture of new Saoithe; sometimes these are a year earlier or later than those given in the Wikipedia page. I surmise that sometimes someone is elected one year and not invested till the following year, and that third-party sources may conflate the two events. The article should specify which date is given for each name; ideally listing both where different. jnestorius( talk) 18:27, 2 February 2015 (UTC) reply

Edna O'Brien was missing, so I added her, but I am not sure if I got the distinction between the election and investiture dates right. The source on the Aosdana website mentions there was a ceremony to celebrate her election in 2015, though. Detritus2 ( talk) 14:36, 19 October 2017 (UTC) reply
