You were almost in the correct location. I have taken the liberty of copying your words verbatim to the correct location. See Talk:Clan Hunter This is not an area where I have an opinion. Even so I find your arguements to be interestig, persuasive. Iam hoping for many opinions since it os a consensus we seek. Fiddle Faddle 13:34, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
Thanks! And thank you for putting my comments in the right place. Yes, I hope there are more contributions to the discussion. Scottish and Gaelic history is a subject I am passionate about and have studied for for many years. I have a connection to Clan Hunter and I feel that it is a fascinating example of a small Clan which walked in both Scottish worlds, on the west coast and the nearby Islands, and it would be such a shame if this Island and Highland aspect of the Clan's history was quite literally 'edited out' in a narrow focus merely on the Hunters of Hunterston family and their immediate Ayrshire territory, rather than the Hunters as a Clan and their historically much wider territory. The proposed new draft does not, I believe, include any reference to their Highland territory, not the Gaelic name of the Hunters by which they were - and are - known, nor even to their role as keepers of the Royal forests of Arran and the Cumbraes (all things the present article references, even if briefly). Anyway, I'm preaching again. Calbannach ( talk) 16:57, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
