Hen erthygl Cymru:
 [[de:Wales]] [[eo:Kimrio]] [[fr:Pays de Galles]] [[pl:Walia]] [[en:Wales]]
Cymru ydy gwlad fach yng ngorllewin Ynys Prydain, a rhan o'r y Deyrnas Unedig efo Lloegr, Yr Alban a Gogledd Iwerddon.
Cymru ydy cartref yr iaith Cymraeg, er bod llai na chwarter y boblogaeth yn ei siarad hi.

In the English Wikipedia, the name Cymru is stated immediately in the first sentence. Is there any reason why the word "Wales" does not appear one single time throughout this entire article? Surely it is a startling omission not to mention the name by which other countries know this country... 84.9.34.22 02:44, 27 Awst 2006 (UTC)

If you mentioned the names other countries know this country, you'd have a very long list. I've added Wales because English and Welsh are treated as equal in Wales. Paul-L 19:19, 2 Medi 2006 (UTC)

A list almost as long as the number of languages in the world. One could as well ask why the English language wikipedia article on England does not include the name Lloegr, as that is the name used by the Welsh, the inhabitants of one of the only two countries which border on England, since the formation of that country! Anatiomaros 19:54, 2 Medi 2006 (UTC)

:Lloegr? Hehe... I never heard that before. How does one pronounce it, I wonder? I could tell people "I'm from Lloegr", and see the confusion on their faces :P

:Thanks for adding the English name... although I do get the point about all the other languages in the world. 87.74.48.230 10:01, 5 Medi 2006 (UTC)

::Lloegr is approxomately 'sl-oi-gr'. I'm from Lloegr = Dw i'n dod o Loegr (soft mutation causes the first 'l' to disappear). Paul-L 16:01, 9 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

Roedd Defnyddiwr:Siswrn wedi dileu'r gair "Wales", dwi wedi ei ail-osod. Dwi'n teimlo y dylid crybwyll y gair o leiaf unwaith yn yr erthygl, gan ei fod yn un o enwau swyddogol Cymru, ac enw a ddefnyddid gan fwyafrif o drigolion Cymru. Byddai'r erthygl yn anghyflawn hebddo. --Llygad Ebrill 19:18, 14 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

:Ni welaf bwrpas dangos yr enw Saesneg am Gymru yma - mae pawb sy'n defnyddio'r Wici Cymraeg yn gwybod beth ydi Cymru yn Saesneg. Maen nhw wedi dewis darllen y Wici Cymraeg am eu bod eisiau darllen erthyglau Cymraeg. Rhoi gwybodaeth i bobl mae Wicipedia i fod i wneud, nid dweud yr hyn sy'n amlwg. Dywedwn i mai gwneud pwynt gwleidyddol ydi rhoi 'Wales' i mewn.                 Siswrn 21:54, 14 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

::Nid yw fy amcanion yn rhai gwleidyddol, ond yn rhai gwyddoniadurol. Pe tasech chi'n darllen yr hyn a ysgrifenais uchod, fe fyddai hynny'n glir. Dylsai wyddoniadur fel hwn cynnwys bob math o wybodaeth perthnasol, hyd yn oed pethau amlwg. Yn wir, pan mae rhywbeth yn amlwg, bosib fod ei hepgor yn anfon neges gwleidyddol. --Llygad Ebrill 00:02, 16 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

:::Dw i ddim yn deall y rhesymeg yma. Nid ydym yn rhoi enw Saesneg gwledydd eraill. Er engraifft dydyn ni ddim yn rhoi 'Turkey' ar tudalen y wlad Twrci. O ddilyn y rhesymeg yma byddem yn rhoi y teitl Saesneg ar bob dalen. Dyfrig 00:21, 16 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

::Nid yw hyn yn dilyn o fy rhesymeg o gwbl. Gweler isod --Llygad Ebrill 17:13, 17 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

:::: Buaswn i'n dal i ddweud bod y cyfieithiad Saesneg allan o'i le ac yn diraddio'r Wici Cymraeg i raddau. Oes eisiau "Cwningen (Saesneg: rabbit), Y Lleuad (Saesneg: The Moon)" ayb? Arhoswn ni am farn mwy o bobl. Ond fy marn i - dim Saesneg di-anghenraid ar y Wici Cymraeg (nac ar S4C, nac ar...) ;-)  Siswrn 20:19, 16 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

::Mae'n amlwg nad ydych yn fy neall: yr hyn a ddywedais yw fod 'Wales' yn enw swyddogol am Gymru, a'i fod yn un o enwau brodorol y wlad. Mae Cymru'n wlad ddwyieithog. Byswn i fyth isio gweld enw Saesneg ar fwyafrif helaeth erthyglau wicipedia. Dim ond am erthyglau gwledydd roeddwn i'n son, does gan y Lleuad ddim enw swyddogol na thrigolion :-) O rhan Twrci, wrth gwrs nad oes isio enw Saesneg, ond mae isio enwau Twrceg a Chwrdeg y wlad. --Llygad Ebrill 17:13, 17 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

:::: Dw i'n dal i anghytuno, ond mater o farn yn fwy na ffaith ydyw hyn. Rwyf wedi cynnig cyfaddawd drwy ychwanegu 'Cambria' a 'Pays de Galles'. (Dw i ddim yn ystyried Saesneg yn iaith frodorol yng Nghymru - yn Lloegr y tarddodd, a Saeson a ddaeth â hi i Gymru, a dw i ddim yn ystyried y Saesneg (na'r Gymraeg) yn iaith swyddogol yma - 'does dim ieithoedd swyddogol yn y Deyrnas Unedig.)          Siswrn 20:21, 18 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

::Dwi'n cytuno gyda Llygad Ebrill am gynnwys yr enw Saesneg, gan ei bod yn un o ddwy brif iaith Cymru. Efallai bydd hi'n well os caiff ei nodi ar y wybodlen yn unig (ac nid yn y llinell gyntaf)? —Adam (sgwrs • cyfraniadau) 23:25, 18 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

:::Fe fyddai hynny'n dderbyniol i mi --Llygad Ebrill 11:19, 29 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

: Ydw yr wyf yn deall beth yr ydych yn ei ddweud ond does gan y Saesneg fel iaith swyddogol (a bwrw ein bod yn derbyn hynny) ddim i'w wneud â'r peth. Fel y dywedwyd uchod fyddem ni ddim yn cyfieithu cwningen, lleuad nac unrhyw air  arall. Pam felly cyfieithu Cymru Dyfrig 23:38, 18 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

::Mae statws Wales fel enw swyddogol yn berthnasol: swyddogaeth gwyddoniadur yw cofnodi'r math yma o wybodaeth. Wrth gwrs nad yw Wales yn air Cymraeg, ond nid geiriadur mo hwn. Rydym yn ysgrifennu'r geiriadur trwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg, ond mae angen crybwyll enwau priod mewn ieithoedd eraill lle bont yn berthnasol. A fyddech yn dileu'r gwybodaeth yma o erhyglau eraill?  'République française' o Ffrainc er enghraifft? Gan fod Gymru'n wlad ddwyieithog (efallai nad ydym i gyd yn falch o hynny, ond does bosib i ni newid Cymru'n wlad uniaith), mae'r ddau enw yn berthnasol. Gyda llaw, mae'r enwau Lladin a Ffrangeg ar Gymru yn amherthnasol hyd welwn i, a dylid eu dileu. --Llygad Ebrill 11:19, 29 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)
====Consensws====
Can we got concensus on the use of Wales? I like what Llygad Ebrill did to the infobox, and I've added "hefyd Saesneg: Wales" to the opening paragraph, which shows it is one of the two languages, but not the native language. Paul-L 18:39, 14 Ionawr 2007 (UTC)

: Buaswn i'n dweud bod angen i ni benderfynu ar bolisi cyffredinol yn gyntaf, ac wedyn gweithredu'r polisi. Fel arall, 'does dim ateb 'iawn' - dim ond barn a chwaeth pobl. Yn fy marn i: 'does dim ieithoedd swyddogol yng Nghymru (nac yn unlle ym Mhrydain), 'dydi Cymru ddim yn wlad ddwyieithog (mae ieithoedd eraill yn cael ei siarad yma, ac mae'r gyfartaledd o bobl sy'n medru mwy nag un iaith yn is na'r gyfartaledd drwy'r byd), a chyfleu gwybodaeth ddefnyddiol drwy'r Gymraeg ydi gwaith y Wici Cymraeg - 'sdim eisiau Saesneg sydd ddim yn deud dim. Ond rhaid sefydlu'r egwyddor i'w dilyn yn gyntaf. Siswrn 22:03, 16 Ionawr 2007 (UTC)

Dwi ddim yn deall pam fod yr adran "Hanes Cymru" yn gorffen yn y 1280au; roeddwn i'n meddwl fod yr arfer hynny wedi mynd allan o ffasiwn ers dyddiau J.E. Lloyd! Yna mae pwt am ryfel Glyndŵr a'r Deddfau Uno yn dod dan y bennod "Gwleidyddiaeth" - bwlch anferth wedyn nes inni gyrraedd y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol. Yn fy marn i mae angen ail-ysgrifennu a threfnu hyn i gyd. Oes rhywun yn teimlo fel rhoi cynnig arni? Dwi'n fodlon i gyfrannu fy hun. Anatiomaros 21:03, 7 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

Cytuno bod eisiau ailwapio'r erthygl ond fel mater o frys yr wyf wedi torri allan y cufeiriad at hiliaedd oedd dan 'economi Dyfrig 09:53, 14 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

:Diolch Dyfrig. Gyda llaw, oes gennych unrhyw syniad be di'r "APE" ("Mae APE yn credu...") gan y fandal Defnyddiwr:Quirky (hiliol ei hun yn fy marn i!)? Mae 'na bobl od o gwmpas. Anatiomaros 19:32, 14 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

Fe sefydlodd y Rhufeinwyr gadwyn o amddiffynfeydd dros dde Cymru , cyn belled â Chaerfyrddin (Maridunum). Mae tystiolaeth iddyn nhw fynd ymhellach i'r gorllewin a chroesi i Iwerddon. : Rwy'n amheus iawn o hyn. Mae ychydig o gelfi Rhufeinig wedi eu darganfod yn Iwerddon, ond marsiandïwyr yw'r eglurhad amlwg, nid bod y Rhufeiniaid eu hunain wedi bod yno.Rhion 07:17, 16 Mawrth 2007 (UTC)

Beth yw ystyr un o wledydd cyfansoddiadol y DU. Does dim cyfansoddiad gennym. Dw i ddim yn meddwl fod y golygiad hwn wedi gwella ar y ddalen. Dyfrig 20:55, 12 Awst 2007 (UTC)

"Gwlad gyfansoddol", o'r Saesneg "Constituent country". Mae'n derm sy 'mond yn cael ei ddefnyddio ar y wicipedia Saesneg, hyd y gwelaf i, ac yn bersonol dwi ddim yn hoff ohono o gwbl. Rwyt ti'n iawn, mae angen cael paragraff hir da o gyflwyniad sy'n cynnwys disgrifiad cryno (iawn!) o nodweddion Cymru. Gyda llaw, dwi ddim yn hoff o "ynys Prydain Fawr" chwaith; mae "Prydain" neu "Ynys Prydain" yn llawn digon da ac yn llawer mwy cyfarwydd a naturiol. Anatiomaros 21:22, 12 Awst 2007 (UTC)

:Mae'r gair "cyfansoddiadol"/constituent (siŵr o fod "cyfansoddol" dyle fe fod – mae chwilio am hyn ar Google yn rhoi ambell i ganlyniad) yn dynodi bod y gwledydd yn rhannau o'r DU (together they constitute the United Kingdom) – nid yw'n cyfeirio at unrhyw gyfansoddiad. Mae constituent country yn term sy'n cael ei ddefnyddio gan Whitaker's Almanack, y Swyddfa Ystadegau Gwladol , ac eraill (er nad yw'n cael ei ddefnyddio gan Lywodraeth San Steffan ). Mae amrywiadau megis constituent parts (Penguin Encyclopedia) a component countries yn cael eu defnyddio hefyd. —Adam (sgwrs • cyfraniadau) 20:34, 10 Chwefror 2008 (UTC)

::Ie, ond y broblem yw mae'n derm diweddar ac anghywir (ac anghyfarwydd iawn yn y Gymraeg hefyd)) sy mond yn cael ei ddefnyddio gan rai adrannau yn llywodraeth y DU (ond nid y llywodraeth ei hun, mae'n ymddangos!) a'r gwasanaeth sifil a phobl sy'n dilyn eu harweiniad heb feddwl am y peth. Pam anghywir? Achos mae'n cael ei ddefnyddio i ddisgfrifio Gogledd Iwerddon a dydi Gogledd Iwerddon ddim yn wlad ond yn dalaith (o Iwerddon a/neu'r DU gan dibynnu ar eich safbwynt). Gweler hyn, er enghraifft: Google - "Northern Ireland is not a country" (dros 20,000 o gyfeiriadau). Diolch am chwilio i mewn i hyn, gyda llaw. Dwi ddim yn ceisio bod yn negyddol, mond cadw at y ffeithiau. Anatiomaros 21:17, 10 Chwefror 2008 (UTC)

:::Chwaneg ar hyn o'r erthygl hir ar y wicipedia Saesneg. Er bod en. yn defnyddio'r term (yn ddiflas o aml!), nodir hyn (fy italigs i): "Although the term 'constituent countries' is sometimes used by official government bodies in the UK, such as the Office for National Statistics, it is rarely used otherwise. Far more frequently, they are simply referred to as countries; thus the 2001 British Census asked residents of the UK their "country of birth" with tick box options of: Wales; Scotland; Northern Ireland; England; Republic of Ireland and Elsewhere; and the Office for National Statistics states authoritatively in its glossary that "In the context of the UK, each of the four main subdivisions (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) is referred to as a country". The British Embassy in the United States uses the word 'countries' on its website, rather than constituent countries: "The United Kingdom is made up of the countries of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland." ." Anatiomaros 21:52, 10 Chwefror 2008 (UTC)

Dwi wedi mentro newid yr hen fap, oedd yn dangos Cymru yn y DU yn unig, gyda dau fap newydd, un (anfoddhaol, mae'n wir) yn dangos Cymru yn unig (a darn o Loegr!) a'r llall, newydd ymddangos ar gomin yn gymharol ddiweddar, yn dangos Cymru yn yn Ewrop (+Prydain ac Iwerddon) a'r byd. Gobeithio fod hyn yn wellaint ac felly'n dderbyniol. Gresyn nad oes gwell fapiau o Gymru, yn y Gymraeg os posibl, ar gael. Anatiomaros 00:11, 6 Tachwedd 2008 (UTC)

Hmm. Mae'n flin 'da fi, ond achos difrifol o information overload yw'r mapiau isaf, yn fy marn i. A pham fod map Cymru mor wedi'i aflunio? Roedd well 'da fi'r map blaenorol. :( -- Jac-y-do 12:33, 26 Chwefror 2009 (UTC)

Pam ydym ni yn nodi Mrs Windsor fel "brenhines" Cymru (tydi hi ddim - does 'na ddim ffasiwn beth!) yn y wybodlen ac yn ychwanegu Gordon 'GB' Brown hefyd am ei fod yn brif weinidog y DU? Yn rhyfedd iawn, dydy'r wybodaeth honno (amheus yn achos Lisi ac amherthnasol yn achos GB) ddim yn cael ei chynnwys yn yr erthyglau am yr Alban a Lloegr. Fedra' i ddim gweld fod unrhyw ddadl dros gynnwys y ddau unigolyn hynny yma, ac mae'n enwedig o ryfedd fod Cymru yn eithriad i'r drefn mewn hyn o beth. Dwi'n cynnig cael gwared o'r ddau. Oes wrthwynebiad? Anatiomaros 20:15, 1 Medi 2009 (UTC)

Rwy'n amheus braidd o hyn. Mae angen adlewyrchu'r sefyllfa gyfansoddiadol fel y mae, nid fel yr hoffem ni iddi fod. Y gwir yw fod gan GB lawer mwy o rym dros Gymru na sydd gan Rhodri Morgan yn y pen draw, felly rwy'n credu fod angen ei gynnwys (a Brenda). Os down ni'n weriniaeth annibynnol, fe fydd yn bleser mawr eu tynnu o'r wybodlen, ond hyd hynny ... Rhion 21:02, 1 Medi 2009 (UTC)

:Ia, dwi'n medru derbyn hynny, ond ydy hy'n iawn i gyfeirio ati fel "Brenhines Cymru"? Dydi hi ddim achos does 'na ddim ffasiwn beth yn bodoli. Ac hefyd mae angen cysondeb yma. Pam fod Cymru yn eithriad i'r drefn? Os nad ydym am newid gwybodlen Cymru mae angen newid y lleill. ON Cytuno, wrth gwrs - brysied y dydd! Anatiomaros 21:10, 1 Medi 2009 (UTC)

:OON Dwi'n gweld fod gwybodlen y 6 Sir yn cynnwys Gordon ond nid Brenhines Lloegr: sôn am anghyson! Ac mae'n wneud i Gymru edrych fel... dwn i ddim, ond dydy o ddim yn iawn fel hyn. Cysoni'r cyfan sydd rhaid, dyna fy mhrif bwynt. Anatiomaros 21:14, 1 Medi 2009 (UTC)

::Dw i ddim yn meddwl bod yn unrhyw ymgais bwriadol i hepgor y wybodaeth ar erthyglau Lloegr, Yr Alban a'r Chwe Sir (Gogledd Iwerdodn i bawb arall!), ond yn hytrach diffyg manylder ar y Wicipedia Cymraeg.  Er cymaint yr hoffwn iddi fod fel arall,  y gwirionedd yw mai Mrs Windsor yw pennaeth cyfansoddiadol Cymru.--Ben Bore 09:04, 2 Medi 2009 (UTC)

::ON, ond o edrych ar yr erthygl, efallai bod eisia ail lunio'r wybodlen, achos mae yn ymddangos fel mai Brenhines Cymru yw i a nid Brenhines Lloegr/DU. Mae'r Anglopedia yn crybwyll yn gyntaf mai constitutional monarchy yw'r DU. --Ben Bore 09:07, 2 Medi 2009 (UTC)

:::Diolch am yr ymatebion. Yn gyntaf, hoffwn egluro 'mod i wedi codi'r pwynt yma am sawl rheswm ac er yr oeddwn i'n methu ymatal rhag "dweud fy nweud" uchod - fel arfer! - dwi'n derbyn wrth gwrs mai Mrs W yw brenhines y DU a bod Cymru yn rhan o'r DU. Dwi'n derbyn hefyd fod angen i hynny gael ei gofnodi ar Wicipedia. Ond mae'n rhaid i ni fod yn gyson ac yn gywir. Fel mae Ben yn nodi, fel y mae hi ar hyn o bryd mae'r wybodlen yn rhoi'r argraff - yn anfwriadol - mai Brenda yw "brenhines Cymru". Dydy hi ddim. Dydy Cymru ddim yn deyrnas; does ganddi ddim brenhiniaeth. Ond mae hi'n rhan o'r DU a brenhines Prydain/Lloegr yw pennaeth cyfansoddiadol y wladwriaeth honno. A beth fyddai ymateb hanner Chwe Sir y Gogledd o weld yn y wybodlen am y diriogaeth honno mai Elisabeth II yw ei brenhines? Oes angen 'Brenhines' a 'Prif Weinidog y DU' ar wybodlenni tair gwlad y DU a thiriogaeth/talaith Gogledd Iwerddon? Beth am gael rhywbeth fel hyn yn eu lle: 'Statws cyfansoddiadol' (= 'Gwlad'/'Un o wledydd y DU' yn achos Cymru, yr Alban a Lloegr; 'Talaith (tiriogaeth ddadleuol)' yn achos GI) a 'Gwladwriaeth sofranaidd' (= 'Y Deyrnas Unedig'). Ffeithiol, cywir, dim yn mynd i bechu neb (gobeithio!). Y naill ffordd neu'r llall mae angen fod yn gyson. (ON Y peth olaf dwi eisiau ydy creu dadl boeth am hyn, ond mae angen datrys y broblem.) Anatiomaros 12:41, 2 Medi 2009 (UTC)

::::Wedi medwl am y peth ymhellach (a darllen y drafodaeth ar yr un pwnc ar yr Anglopedia) dw i o'r farn nad ydy'r wyboadeth yma yn berthnasol i wybodlen Cymru (na'r gwledydd eraill o fewn y DU chwaith). Cyn belled a bod eglurhad yn yr erthygl bod Cymru'n rhan o'r DU, yna fe all unrhy un glicio ar yr erthygl yna wedyn i weld beth yw statws cyfansoddiadol y wladwriaeth a phwy yw ei bennaeth.

Beth ydym ni ar y Wicipedia Cymraeg yn meddwl am statws yr arfbais yma? Y mae'n anghyfarwydd i gyfranwyr y fersiwn Saesneg o'r dudalen hon ac maent yn ei ddileu pryd bynnag rwyf yn ei ychwanegu. Gofynais i Wikiproject:Heraldry and vexillology am eu barn ac un a atebodd, yn dweud "I'm not convinced it should be given a leading role in the article. Incorporated somewhere, but not at the top - it simply doesn't help the reader enough." Rwy'n aros am ddiwrnod braf i gymryd llun o'r arfbais ar flaen Teml Heddwch Caerdydd (lle ymddengys ynghyd â rhai Lloegr, yr Alban ac Iwerddon) cyn ymateb, ond a wyr unrhywun am dystiolaeth pellach i'r hyn rwyf yn barod wedi rhoi yma?

Yn bersonol, faswn i ddim yn meddwl bod eisiau ei gynnwys. Ydw i'n iawn i ddweud bod yna ar un adeg rhyw fath o Royal Standard ar erthygl Cymru ar y Wikipedia Saesneg?  Beth petai rhwyun awydd rhestru rhywbeth felly (ych a fi!), neu un o'r amryw o fanneri answyddogol Cymru yn y wybodlen hefyd?  Bydd yn edrych yn fler ac yn tynnu'r sylw oddi ar y ddraig goch  yn fy marn i.--Ben Bore 11:08, 23 Tachwedd 2009 (UTC)

:Does dim royal standard fel y cyfryw, ond ydy, mae'r peth tebycaf i un yn cynnwys yr arfbais yma. Arfbais teuluol rhai o dywysogion Gwynedd ydoedd, gan gynnwys Llywelyn Fawr ac ein Llyw Olaf. Roedd traddodiad wedyn o ystyried hwn fel arfbais Cymru – gweler, er enghraifft y delwedd yma, er mai teulu brenhinol Lloegr, yn anffodus, oedd yn ei hawlio. Ham 22:51, 1 Rhagfyr 2009 (UTC)

In Wales which good places to visit? There are many trains from Reading Berkshire. I go to South Coast? It is very easy with a train. Go to places away from a train is worthwhile, such as on buses? Castles, shops, history, what else? Is the country is very beautiful? May be cold in the winter walk on the beach. Thank you. Wenhao.
If public transport is difficult to interesting places, I can rent a car. Do you drive on the left as Britain? How ease of parking?
If you go hiking, do you pay attention to bear? What is the most dangerous animals in rural areas?
Where there is good access to Wales Tourist Board? I would like to ask you to tell me where the potential interests of tourism, if possible, please. However, if you can not answer, is good enough for me to tell Tourist Board. I can ask them. Wenhao

Everywhere in the UK drives on the left. Only pay attention to bears if you go hiking at the zoo, they are extinct in the UK. The most dangerous animals in rural areas are cows. For any future questions there is a cool new website that can answer them: here. 130.88.141.34 16:11, 21 Mawrth 2012 (UTC)

Mae'r frawddeg gyntaf yn rhestru pedwar rhannau'r DU: yr Alban, Lloegr, Cernyw a Gogledd Iwerddon.  Ceryw?  Mae Ceryw'n rhannu'r DU, wrth gwrs, ond drwy estyniad o fod rhan o Loegr fel Sir Efrog a Gwlad-yr-haf.  Hen genedl Geltaidd yw hi, ond dim cenedl fodern Ewropaidd fel Cymru.

Dwi wedi diogelu'r dudalen am bythefnos fel mai dim ond gweinyddwyr gall ei golygu a hynny oherwydd golygiadau niferus gan rywun gyda agenda wleidyddol sy'n ceisio dweud nad yw Cymru'n wlad. Anatiomaros (sgwrs) 22:29, 23 Mehefin 2013 (UTC)

Hello, apologies for not speaking in Welsh here. My welsh is very basic. I just made a climate map on the English wikipedia page for Wales:
I'd like to make one in Welsh and was wondering if I could get translation help for the text in the map. If you could post Welsh translations here of the few bits of text, I'd be happy to add them to the map and upload a Welsh version. Diolch! Redtitan (sgwrs) 06:30, 20 Gorffennaf 2016 (UTC)

Many thanks! I don't really understand the English, whether Koppen describes the type. If so:

'K climate types of Wales' - 'Mathau Koppen o hinsoddau gwahanol yng Nghymru'

'K climate types' - 'Mathau Koppen o hinsoddau gwahanol'

'Subpolar oceanic' - 'Isbegynol-cefnforol'

Diolch am y croeso.
I had a look at the localisation file ([http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/LanguageCy.php Cymraeg ffeil lleoli]) and didn't notice anything obviously wrong. It looks like you've put a lot of work into it. It would be really useful to have a [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump Village Pump] type page on here to ask questions. I would have created one, but wasn't sure what to call it. Maybe ''Y Caffe'', similar to the ones at the French and Spanish Wikipedias. Am I right to assume that the conventions used on the English Wikipedia also apply here? For example, that the title words should be included in '''bold''' in the first line?

Arwel - see my talk page, where an Esperanto speaker has asked that we put in an article about Esperanto, preferably not derogatory or dismissive.   Unfortunately, I don't think I'm up to the job (not just yet, anyhow). Deb 18:18, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)

PS  - One good thing about us being almost the only contributors here - it makes it easier to spot the fandaliaeth! Deb 18:20, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)

:I can imagine that you regard other articles more important in your already not so huge Wikipedia than Esperanto. I'm a language enthusiast and I've already succeded to write short sentences even in such stange languagew as Lakota (an amerindian language) and I worked hard for an artikel about the word for Ring-necked Parakeet (Psittacula krameri) in many languages de:Halsbandsittich in vielen Sprachen, in order to demonstrate how a language can be developped into a standard language, that fits almost all purposes. Icelandic with only about 300 000 speakers did the job well to develop the language into a tool, that works better even on parrots than Hindi or Arabic. I managed to find out the word for Ring-necked Parakeets in 40 languages, write them in their original writing system and translate and analyse, how the word was created. (By the way: Is there a word for this bird in your language and what is it?). So if you could just create an empty page, give it the right title and link it to the Esperanto articles in other languages, I would try to write at least one or two sentences, even if I had to study your language for a rather long time. (I'd see it as a challenge!) You could maybe correct it then. I once even tried to learn Irish (Gaeilge na hÉireann), but found it to be not vigorously enough to learn it as a foreigner. I hope I don't bother you too much with all that stuff. Multkolorbirdo

Glad you commented on the spelling question.  I've been experimenting with Tchaikovsky, trying to decide what I prefer.  Actually, even in English wikipedia there seems to be some doubt about whether he's Pyotr or Peter.  In the end I reasoned that, since the English one has the rule of spelling things "the English way" if it didn't ''look'' wrong, I thought we should do likewise, ie. spell things "the Welsh way".  By that reasoning, we should call him either "Pyotr" or "Pedr", but not "Peter".  Also I think that we should be more concerned with how Welsh speakers will look for him than how many hits we get on Google! Let's keep discussing these questions till we get a consensus.

Hi! This is Ronline from the Romanian Wikipedia. I would like to inform you that, at Meta-Wiki, there is a project running known as Translation of the week. This project seeks to translate an article into as many languages as possible every week, in order to strengthen collaboration between the different language projects and enable more article depth. The current translation of the week is Oradea, and it has already been translated into 17 languages. You can see more information here. It would be great if you could translate this article into the Welsh language, even partially would be great! Thank you very much, Ronline 11:45, 10 Rhag 2004 (UTC)

Hi Arwel! I was wondering whether it should say "Oddiwrth Wicipedia, y gwyddionadur rhad" as it does whenever you print something out or edit something (above the edit box). After all it says "Rhydd" below the logo. I was also wondering whether rhad would have the same connotations as cheap, i.e. "of inferior quality". Does it?
And one other thing: What do you think of Urban75? It is by an anonymous user who has been writing quite a lot lately, but to me it looks a bit spammy, and the linked webpage is in English anyways...
--Okapi 04:17, 9 Ion 2005 (UTC)

No, it should be "y gwyddoniadur rhydd" - the point of "the free encyclopedia" is that it's "free as in speech, not as in beer", while "rhad" does have the principal connotation of "cheap"! I've just changed the tagline back.

As for Urban75, I was thinking it was a bit spammish, and doesn't have much apparent connection with Wales, and I don't know who Mike Slocombe is anyway. I wonder if there's a way of expanding it somehow, the en: version is only a little more informative.... -- Arwel 14:20, 9 Ion 2005 (UTC)

Hi Arwel.
I was wondering about the copyright infringement in Dewi Sant. I have reverted the page to the last version that hadn't been copied from , but if you click through the versions the copyrighted version can (of course) still be found. From a legal point of view, is it enaugh to revert or would the copyrighted version have to be deleted as well? And if it has to be deleted, how do you do that without deleting the whole article? Any ideas? Diolch! --Okapi 05:07, 20 Chwe 2005 (UTC)

Argh! You're right that we should delete the copyvio versions -- unfortunately we have no way to do this ourselves - we'll have to call for developer assistance. That's basically all versions from the 18th Feb., except the oldest, OK? -- Arwel 11:42, 21 Chwe 2005 (UTC)

Hi Arwel! I have just come across Blog and was surprised about the number of weblinks in the text.

Thinking about it, I'm a bit surprised that the English version of the redirect command actually works here.  Is there a way we can stop this?  It might deter English-speaking vandals if they have to take the trouble to learn the Welsh version. Deb 18:00, 30 Maw 2005 (UTC)

:I tell you what's irritating.  If you block someone - as I just thought I was blocking the vandal - there's nothing to tell you that the person's already been blocked, which he had, by you.  I was also wondering whether, having not blocked him for as long as you had, that later blocking would override the previous one.  I hope not, because I don't plan to unblock anyone!

As this weirdo is following me around the English wikipedia, I thought I'd come over here to talk to you.  I can quite accept you not wanting to enter into the dispute.  My main concern is to have the page back at a title that conforms to naming standards, not the made-up one that this guy invented just because he didn't like the old one. Clearly she can't be "Alexandra Feodorovna of Hesse", because the two halves are mutually exclusive.  Just thought I'd explain without having to be followed by a tirade of illiterate abuse.

Arwel, thanks for your reply yn Y Caffi to my tale of woe concerning Version 1.5 (it still b*****s up Opera, but I'm learning to love Firefox instead). You invited me to request Administrator status: I am honoured, but I think that my low-level command of Welsh probably rules me out at present: I am still very much a dysgwr, so while I'm very prepared to help with "housekeeping" tasks, I wouldn't be qualified to engage at any length in discussions in Welsh, as might be required by the role. What do you think?

:It's not strictly necessary to conduct lengthy discussions in Welsh, as most of the Administrator functions are, well, "administrative" - the "rolio nôl" button is very handy for dealing with vandals! In all fairness I don't think any of the current administrators can be viewed as 100% fluent any more (if they ever were)... I personally have spent most of my time over the border for the last 30 years :( Anyway, if you change your mind, just ask.
May I ask you though, as an Administrator, to do one litttle task for me? And that is, to "speedily delete" the page Template Misoedd. It serves no useful purpose, and was created accidentally be me on my way to creating Nodyn:Misoedd.

:Done!
By the way, although, as I said, my Welsh from many years ago is now so heavily rusted as to have practically seized up -- so I am more-or-less starting all over again -- I do think there is a role for learners in the various diferent language Wikipedias (so long, of course, as we do not muck things up for mother-tongue users). I don't know whether you agree. I do know for my part that a few months of contributing to the Irish-language Vicipéid, for instance, have done more to revive such skills as I may ever have had in that language than years and years of off-and-on revision! -- Jac-y-do 11:21, 23 Gorffennaf 2005 (UTC)

**Pwy yw "Willy on Wheels" 'te?  Draig goch20 22:32, 2 Awst 2005 (UTC)

:"Willy on Wheels" is a pain-in-the-neck vandal - he usually replaces articles with pictures of a "wind-up willy on wheels" which he claims is a "sex toy" (!), but latterly he's taken to moving and renaming pages which makes things a bugger to straighten out - if I remember rightly, DG, you arrived here just after we were clearing up after his last visitation to cy. He usually creates accounts which contain the words "...on wheels" (with or without trailing exclamation marks). He's a free-fire zone, any administrator on cy can ban him on sight and revert any edits he's done. -- Arwel 10:18, 3 Awst 2005 (UTC)

Just out of interest, I asked the only Hebrew-speaking user I could find (Horzer) what that stuff meant on that user page that was recently created and then blanked.  Here's his response: "Ok, the thing in Hebrew is a discussion of Malcolm X and "Black Supremacy" theories (or something like that), comparing X to Martin Luther King. Its probably copied from Wikipedia Hebrew or from other source. I don't think this user knows hebrew, out of some words." Deb 17:41, 4 Awst 2005 (UTC)

You can write an HTML comment in the middle: diweddar.
Or you can write it without a comment in the middle: ar.  But to do that you have to have The Force.  And anyone who doesn't have The Force will mess it up when they next edit this page......

Last time we had this problem, it was that MAG_END in LanguageCy.php ("__END__" yn yr iaith fain) was defined as "DIWEDD", not "__DIWEDD__". But I see that's been changed by now, so why are we still getting the problem? Maybe the new version's not been properly installed? I think we should file a bug report.

That's a surprise. User MediaWikidefault, which is a system user, seems to have been reverting strings in the MediaWiki namespace back to English at random for no readily apparent reason. I shall make enquiries on the tech mailing list and revert those I can find. -- Arwel 16:48, 21 Awst 2005 (UTC)

Now here's a good suggestion, why not have a Welsh version of WikiNews. Like we have Wiktionary which is a very good idea, why not have a Welsh version of Wikinews? It's only a suggestion by the way.

Annwyl Arwel. Deb 16:42, 1 Medi 2005 (UTC)

Hi Arwel.
I've been editing Wictionary very much recently, trying to set a basic structure for the whole thing. Since you're the moderator I presume you have overall control of how it works, so I have a few requests (I don't want to seem expectant):
*make it so that the prefixes 'Wiciadur:' and 'Atodiad:' aren't counted as dictionary entires (in the case of Nodyn:, and Wicipedia: on Wicipedia)
*fully translate the navigation bar and change 'Community portal' to 'Portal cymunedol' (like on Wicipedia)
If you can do these things please do, and in return I'll contribute heavily to Wictionary (could it be possibly be renamed Wiciadur? - just a thought).
Huge regards - please reply, —Adam (sgwrs • cyfraniadau) 17:13, 26 Hydref 2005 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for you help! I've just renamed the whole thing Wiciadur - do you know how I can contact the person with the most power over the site?
Diolch yn fawr, —Adam (sgwrs • cyfraniadau) 09:08, 27 Hydref 2005 (UTC)

Hi Arwel, I was wondering if you could tell me how you became an administrator for Wiciadur? Since there's no administrator-nomination page I'm not sure how to go about applying.
Diolch yn fawr iawn, —Adam (sgwrs • cyfraniadau) 18:38, 5 Tachwedd 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I am w:nl:gebruiker:Walter of the dutch Wikipedia. I am writing you because your are listed as ambassador of your wiki. I have something to say that I think you will find useful and possibly others of your wiki also.
You know it is not easy for the members of a local wiki to be informed about what is going on in the higher levels of the Wikimedia family. This because of the language problem and the high level of fragmentation of places where you can find information.
I am now making a weekly news letter (Wikizine) that attempts to provide the news of the Wikimedia projects. The concept is to list only a very short description of the news an give the relevant url to the subject. I want it to be short, only give the news that is important for all projects. The target audience include the ambassadors. It is for people who are interested in what it going on outside there own wiki. I emphasize on the news that is practical-technical. The information comes form several "news"-pages on several wikis, the mailinglists and IRC. There will be news I can not discover. If you have news found somewhere or from you own wiki please let my know. wikizine AT wikipedia.be
I can only create one version in something that supposed to be English. I count on the readers to inform there local wiki about the news in there own language.
Wikizine is send by use of the mailinglist Announce-l. It is only used for this. So people can subscribe without being swamped by emails like the lists.
http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/announce-l
I hope that you and others of your wiki will subscribe to Wikizine and give feedback. So that Wikizine can become really a source where Wikimedians can find out what is going on. Greetings, w:nl:gebruiker:Walter PS: do not repond here. I will not see it.

Annwyl Arwel.  Please forgive me using English.  If you frequent the English wikipedia, you may be aware of the existence of [[Category:Welsh-speaking people]].  This has been nominated for deletion, on the grounds that all "similar" categories, eg. English-speaking people, would be "too big".  I'm not prepared to die in a ditch over it, but I do feel that it's an obvious exception.  If you have an opinion, would you care to get over there sharpish, and contribute to the debate?

Gan eich bod wedi creu ffeiliau sain yn barod ar Wikipedia Saesneg falle y byddai diddordeb gyda chi i helpu gyda'r gwaith o greu ffeiliau ynganiad Cymraeg ar Gomin Wikipedia (commons:Category:Welsh pronunciation). Mae'n dda cael amrywiaeth o acenion Cymraeg ar y ffeiliau hyn ac yn enwedig i gael pobl lleol yn yngan enwau lleoedd - byddai'n grêt cael rhywun o Ruthun yn bwrw ati gyda lleoedd y Gogledd-ddwyrain.  Dwi'n cofio clywed darn ar y radio yn egluro mai Afon 'Ogwan' yw ynganiad yr enw ac mai camgymeriad oedd ei sillafu'n Afon Ogwen gan rywrai oedd yn meddwl eu bod yn gwybod yn well na'r bobl leol!

Wikimedians in the United Kingdom are working to set up a chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation, which will aid and encourage people to collect, develop and effectively disseminate knowledge.  A board of five members has been elected, and a company has now been set up.  Membership applications are now invited, and will be processed as soon as we have a bank account. The organisation needs the support and involvement of people like you.
So far, most participants have been based on English-language projects, but we want to ensure that we work with and for Wikimedians in all languages. As Wicipedia yn Gymraeg is an important language native to the UK, we are making contact with you.
We need to know what a new UK chapter can do to assist your project, and how we can best work together to make that happen.  We are also looking for people who can translate short pieces of text, such as the first paragraph of this message, to help publicise the activities of the chapter.
Please do comment, make suggestions, and feel free to ask us any questions, whether here, on MetaWiki, or on the wikimedia-uk mailing list. AndrewRT 23:03, 1 Rhagfyr 2008 (UTC)

Yn dilyn trafodaeth yn y Caffi (gweler yma), mae Luke wedi creu tudalen newydd ar gyfer materion gweinyddol, sef Negesfwrdd gweinyddiaeth. Y syniad yw defnyddio'r Caffi ar gyfer negeseuon cyffredinol a defnyddio'r bwrdd newydd fel lle i drafod a datrys - gobeithio - materion fel nodiadau, categorïau, fandaliaeth a phethau eraill sy'n rhan o waith gweinyddwyr. Bydd yn gymorth i gadw trafodaethau gyda'i gilydd ac yn rhyddhau lle yn y Caffi. Hoffwn ofyn i bawb sy'n weinyddwr ei roi ar eu rhestr gwylio a'i ddefnyddio.

Dear Arwel Parry:
The Wikimedia Foundation (“Wikimedia”) has taken down content that you posted at :File:Tywysogesdi.jpg due to Wikimedia’s receipt of a validly formulated notice that your posted content was infringing an existing copyright.  When someone sends us a validly formulated notice of copyright infringement, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) Section (c)(1)(C) requires Wikimedia to take the content down, and to notify you that we have removed that content.  This notice, by itself, does not mean that the party requesting that the content be taken down are suing you.  The party requesting the take down might only be interested in removing the content from our site.
What Can You Do?
You are not obligated to take any action.  However, if you feel that your content does not infringe upon any copyrights, you may contest the take down request by submitting a ‘counter notice’ to Wikimedia.  Before doing so, you should understand your legal position, and you may wish to consult with an attorney.  If you choose to submit a counter notice, the alleged copyright holder can either refuse to contest the counter notice or decide to file a lawsuit against you to restrain Wikimedia from re-posting the content.  Please note that Wikimedia will not be a party to any legal action that arises from you sending a counter notice, and that Wikimedia is unable to provide you with legal advice.
Filing a Counter Notice
If you choose to submit a counter notice, you must send a letter asking Wikimedia to restore your content to legal@wikimedia.org, or to our service processor at the following address:  Wikimedia Foundation, c/o CT Corporation System, 818 West Seventh Street, Los Angeles, California, 90017.  The letter must comply with DMCA standards, set out in Section (g)(3)(A-D), and must contain the following:
* A link to where the content was before we took it down and a description of the material that was removed;
* A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;
* Your name, address, and phone number;
* If your address is in the United States, a statement that says “I consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the district where my address is located, and I will accept service of process from the person who complained about the content I posted”; alternatively, if your address is outside the United States, a statement that says “I agree to accept service of process in any jurisdiction where the Wikimedia Foundation can be found, and I will accept service of process from the person who complained about the content I posted”; and finally,
* Your physical or electronic signature.
Pursuant to the DMCA, Wikimedia must inform the alleged copyright holder that you sent us a counter notice, and give the alleged copyright holder a copy of the counter notice. The alleged copyright holder will then have fourteen (14) business days to file a lawsuit against you to restrain Wikimedia from reposting the content.  If Wikimedia does not receive proper notification that the alleged copyright holder has initiated such a lawsuit against you, we will repost your content within ten (10) to fourteen (14) business days.
Miscellaneous
As a matter of policy and under appropriate circumstances, Wikimedia will block the accounts of repeat infringers as provided by Section 512(i)(1)(A) of the DMCA.
If you would like to learn more about Wikimedia’s policies, please refer to the Wikimedia Terms of Use, available at Terms of use, and the Wikimedia Legal Policies, available at m:Legal/Legal_Policies.  More information on DMCA compliance may also be found at:

* http://www.copyright.gov/onlinesp/

Hi!
Wikimedia Foundation Board decided in 2009 to stop using GFDL as a sole license per this resolution.
GFDL is not a good license because it makes it hard to reuse the images (and the articles where the image is used).
You have uploaded one or more files with GFDL. You can see the files in :Categori:Wikipedia license migration candidates. You can also click this link and scroll down to see your name.
If you are the photographer/creator you can help to relicense the file(s). You can do so by changing {{GFDL}} to {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-3.0}}.
If you are not the photographer/creator please check if you have added a source and author. --MGA73 (sgwrs) 10:38, 6 Mehefin 2021 (UTC)

Hello Deb! Welcome to the Welsh Wikipedia -- don't worry if you don't write perfect Welsh, most of us are in the same boat! It's nice to see you over here. I've been playing around with the Welsh [localisation file] -- do you feel able to take a look to see if what I've done so far makes sense (rather a lot of it has come out of a few dictionaries, as we seem to be a bit lacking in technical terminology though I have found a list I've put up at Termau cyfrifiadurol Cymraeg!). -- Arwel 22:00 29 Jul 2003 (UTC)

In case you were wondering about the phrase "Yr Eglwys Dduw Hollalluog", it was my guess at the phrase "The Church of Almighty God" (which is the official English translation of the original Chinese name: 全能神教會 / Quánnéng-Shén-Jiàohuì).
Here's one article for starters: https://bitterwinter.org/what-is-the-church-of-almighty-god/
As for my guess for a Welsh translation of the new religious movement's name, do you think it's good as is? Or, does it need an improvement or two?
I hope the post clears things up benevolently. --Lo Ximiendo (sgwrs) 10:43, 23 Ionawr 2020 (UTC)

Hi, Lo Ximiendo. I wasn't wondering. I checked out the article on the English Wikipedia and found that the figures you had added were inaccurate. The translation seems fine though. Deb (sgwrs) 12:43, 23 Ionawr 2020 (UTC)

Hi Deb
I was asked by Wikimedia Foundation to promote this call for participation on the planned Universal Code of Conduct.
Best regards --Holder (sgwrs) 04:35, 14 Awst 2020 (UTC)
At times, our contributor communities and projects have suffered from a lack of guidelines that can help us together create an environment where free knowledge can be shared safely without fear.
There has been talk about the need for a global set of conduct rules in different communities over time. Recently, Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees announced a Community Culture Statement, asking for new standards to address harassment and promote inclusivity across projects.
The universal code of conduct will be a binding minimum set of standards across all Wikimedia projects, and will apply to all of us, staff and volunteers alike, all around the globe.. It is of great importance that we all participate in expressing our opinions and thoughts about UCoC and its values. We should think about what we want it to cover or include and what it shouldn’t include, and how it may create difficulties or help our groups.

This is the time to talk about it. Before starting drafting the code of conduct, we would like to hear from you and to solicit the opinions and feedback of your colleagues.
In order for your voice to be heard, we encourage and invite you to read more about the universal code of conduct (UCoC)  and then write down your opinions or feedback on the discussion page . To reduce language barriers during the process, you are welcomed to translate the universal code of conduct english main page into your respective local language . You and your community may choose to provide your opinions/feedback using your local languages.

Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you.

Mae gennym gategori "Jawa" eisoes, sy'n dod o dan "Ynysyoedd Indonesia" yn "Daearyddiaeth Indonesia".  "Jawa" yw'r ffurf yn Atlas Cymraeg Newydd. Rwyf wedi symud "Daeargryn Gorllewin Java 2022" i Daeargryn Gorllewin Jawa 2022, ac wedi gwneud newidiau eraill yn yr erthygl. 'Sdim angen am gategori newydd "Java", felly.

Rwyf newydd gael neges gan Tumbuka Arch, pwy wnest ti ei flocio. Rwy'n meddwl bod yn rhaid dy fod wedi clicio ar yr enw anghywir ar ddamwain. Nid ef oedd yn gyfrifol am y sbam; doedd e ddim ond yn gwneud adroddiad arno. Hwyl! Dafydd -- Craigysgafn (sgwrs) 10:28, 28 Mehefin 2023 (UTC)

Hi! It seems that the article Poor Innocence in cy.wiki is the last remnants of promotional cross-wiki spam and as such is a subject for deletion. The best, Андрей Романенко (sgwrs) 23:08, 15 Rhagfyr 2023 (UTC)

Diolch! Deb (sgwrs) 09:27, 28 Rhagfyr 2023 (UTC)

Hi, how are you? I am sorry for bothering you but I would like to ask you whether you could please help me revising this article? I am not a native speaker of Welsh and I am not sure whether there are any errors there so I wouldn't like to continue if the article is wrong. Could you please help me? --Jon Gua (sgwrs) 07:28, 25 Ebrill 2024 (UTC)

Croeso. I'll try, but my Welsh is not advanced. Deb (sgwrs) 08:16, 25 Ebrill 2024 (UTC)


Sgwrs:Llywelyn ap Gruffudd

Hi, I am afraid I do not speak a word of Welsh. I am Dutch and translated the Llywelyn Ein Llyw Olaf page for nl.wiki (from English). I must admit reluctantly because I doubt it is a very NPOV page. Frankly it reminded me of the reasons that Hitler had to shoot back at Poland in 1939 (He sent his own men across to shoot at their own buddies..). Llywelyn and especially his brother David are depicted as dummies and of course Edward had no choice but etc.. I would appreciate a Welsh view on this. I'd love to amend the nl. version. nl:Gebruiker:Jcwf
Hi.  I also don't speak much Welsh, but as I wrote the original English page, I feel I should respond.  Naturally I don't agree that it is not NPOV - quite the opposite.  Llywelyn is generally regarded by historians as a great leader who did some foolish things.  His brother Dafydd is generally regarded as having been unreliable, headstrong and treacherous - though he also had a noble side to him. The problem, I find, is that Welsh writers with a patriotic bent prefer to overlook their faults.  Now that is non-NPOV.  As a leader, Llywelyn certainly was a lesser man than either his grandfather, Llywelyn Fawr, or his great-great-grandfather, Owain Gwynedd.  As for Edward I, he was a heartless tyrant, and I find it hard to write about him in a non-NPOV way. 212.159.32.14 19:18 8 Aug 2003 (UTC)
Sorry, that's me. Deb 19:23 8 Aug 2003 (UTC)
Thank you Deb for a quick and interesting response. I wholeheartedly agree that overlooking the flaws of Llywelyn and Dafydd would not be NPOV, but I am surprised to see how far you have curbed your dislike for Edward. He comes out smelling rather like roses... Thus the impression is created that the conquest of Wales was all due to its learders' flaws and had nothing to do with the expansionist designs of Edward. Is that really appropriate? (or what you intended?) Jcwf

Well, personally, I don't think so - I think the article is fairly impartial.  Maybe you could be more specific about which bits you don't like -- or just go and rewrite them.  I've never expected that anything I write will remain unaltered for all time. Deb 17:37, 10 Aug 2003 (UTC)

:Specifics? All right: I rather respect a man who does not endulge in extramarital affairs and loves his wife enough to be distraught at her death. The UK might wish to have such a Prince of Wales again. Perhaps even HM the Queen might agree with me. In your story it is however depicted as one of Llywelyn's 'weaknesses', that replace the true reason for Wales' conquest: the villain Edward who stopped at nothing, even abduction of someone's bride. Jcwf

Oh no.  No way.  I quite agree that Llywelyn's apparent love for his wife (even though it must, realistically, have grown after they were married - because he had never set eyes on her before her return to Britain) is one of his endearing qualities.  I sincerely hope the article doesn't read as if I think otherwise.  All it says is that Eleanor's death had a serious emotional impact on Llywelyn, which by all accounts is a fact.  But it is also true that, had he not been so affected, he might have been better able to respond to the English invasion.  It is also true that he would not have started a rebellion, as Dafydd did, but that he felt he should support his brother rather than attempt to appease Edward.  None of these things, in themselves, are reprehensible on his part; and I count none of them as "weaknesses".  Is it possible that there is some kind of linguistic barrier between us? Deb 19:06, 12 Aug 2003 (UTC)

Oni dylai hyn fod ar dudalen dan y teitl Llywelyn ap Gruffudd? Dyna oedd enw'r Tywysog; mae'r enw "Llywelyn Ein Llyw Olaf" (hefyd "Y Llyw Olaf" neu "Ein Llyw Olaf" yn unig) yn enw poblogaidd arno a ddaeth i fry yn cymharol ddiweddar. Does gennyf ddim byd yn erbyn yr enw, sy'n rhan o'n traddodiad, ac mae'n iawn i gael erthygl dan yr enw ond credaf y byddai'n well i hynny ganolbwyntio ar rôl Llywelyn ap Gruffudd fel arwr cenedlaethol ar ôl ei farwolaeth (dadeni y 18fed ganrif, cenedlaetholdeb yn y ddwy ganrif ddiwethaf, etc.). GRUFFUDD yw'r ffurf safonol hefyd, nid "Gruffydd" (mae tudalen yn bodoli dan yr enw Llywelyn ap Gruffydd sy'n atgyfeirio i fan'ma).
Cytuno: pobl o dan eu henwau go iawn, a Gruffudd sy'n safonol am enw ei dad. Daffy 16:47, 24 Awst 2006 (UTC)
The need for disambiguation would also be my concern. Deb 17:27, 26 Awst 2006 (UTC)

Nid cerflun o Llywelyn ap Gruffudd yw hwn sy'n cael ei ddangos ar y dudalen. Cerflun o Llywelyn ap Gruffudd fychan ydyw, ymladdodd yng ngwrthryfel Glyndŵr:
