Confusion?
This peer is given as born in 1943 but serving in the RAF in World War II! Is the detail relating rather to his father?Cloptonson (talk) 12:58, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Unsourced content and content sourced to deprecated sources
We cant have any unsourced or poorly sourced claims on a WP:BLP, they have to be removed immediately. Your most recent edit not on this page suggests you are well aware of that. Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 19:48, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * You have all the time in the world, the text can still be found in the edit history. There is no need for it to remain up in order to find sources. I understand your frustration but edit warring BLP violations back onto a page isn't acceptable under any circumstances. WP:BLP says immediately and it means immediately. Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 19:52, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Ruthlessly removing text because it is sourced by a deprecated source is not the best way to improve the article. Starting editwarring why I try to improve the article is also not a positive course of action. I am working on it. Respect that.  The Banner  talk 19:56, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I’l respect it but only under WP:IAR, what we are doing is clearly against the rules but I believe that you intend to source everything you can and will remove anything you cant eventually source. Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 20:01, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Your editwarring and preventing the article to be improved is indeed against the rules. By now, I am finished. Have add some sources, removed some text. No need to bludgeon the article over deprecated sources. The sources were easy enough to find. Did you try to find them? The Banner  talk 20:09, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Glad to see that the article advanced - I did have to do some work on it once, and it had room to improve, for sure. Not to butt in, but I think an important point is at issue -, the rules for BLPs (I both edit and have written BLPs) specify urgency for material "challenged or likely to be challenged" and require immediate action for "contentious material" - other material can be citation needed tagged and time given.  I did not see anything contentious here.  We do have high standards for BLPs but we don't require every single point to be cited now.  This is important as while you are correct that redacted text can be found in history, once cut it may be lost as many don't look back - and such action can also discourage other editors (many articles were written when article standards were arguably lower, and there are thousands with major need for improvement).  Anyway, the net result here is a better and more robust article. SeoR (talk) 09:16, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * And you have gained a grumpy editor (me) because of the rudeness of HEB. The Banner  talk 15:36, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Baronetcy
Was there not a subsidiary title associated with Dromoland, a baronetcy of Dromoland and some other townland? SeoR (talk) 10:10, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
 * And indeed, Conor P. O'Brien was also 10th Baronet O'Brien, of Lemeneagh and Dromoland (cr. 1686), now we just need a citation... That title seems to follow the same line of descent as the baronial one.


 * Meantime, the claim about "Prince of Thomond" is widely mentioned, but has no sound basis in Gaelic law (and yes, some of the leading Gaelic families did unilaterally try to "change the rules", ironically to follow Anglo-Norman custom, but that attempt itself has no basis in Irish law or tradition - and now the Irish state simply does not recognise any of these claims, even Chief of the Name ones which might have some logic, at all).
