Sorry -- it was explained to me about not putting the general Saints category in since two subcategories were already present. Didn't know that before, but it makes sense! Thanks. Isoxyl 14:04, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

How do you know Mungo died on 13th January 614??
See: - everywhere is that he died in 612 AD

 * According to Jocelin's 'Life', Mungo died on Sunday 13 January. According to the Annales Cambriae, Mungo died in 612. The 13 January was a Sunday in 614 not 612. Many of the dates in the Annales are considered to be one or two years out. Walgamanus 18:06, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

It appears JKR put "St. Mungo" into her books because that was the individual name of the last A1 class steam locomotive to run on british tracks. That engine was dismantled in 1996. 82.131.210.162 (talk) 10:39, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

East Orthodox Church feast day
It seems that the feast day is common and not the 14th of January as stated in this article. Info found at

unfortunately for most the page is in Greek but i believe you would understand the words "Κεντιγκέρνου Ἐπισκ. " (Kentigern Bishop) just under the "13 Ιανουαρίου" ( 13th of January )

It seems to me he is the same person. No one with similar name is under January the 14th. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.159.17.137 (talk) 16:42, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

Name
I have reworked the name section as it appeared to use a lot of conjecture and cited no sources. The primary derivation from *kintu-tigernos has been replaced by that given by Jackson < *kuno-tigernos, as this at least is from an academic source. I have left information on the derivation from *kintu-, however, as this seems to be the prevailing opinion in 'secondary' (ie. non linguistic) sources.

I have removed references to Brythonic parts of England, which aren't relevant here. I have also replaced the "British" word 'munghu', which is entirely spurious, with the Welsh equivalent. 81.156.201.130 (talk) 19:34, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Classical music
There is an oratorio or symphony on the subject of Kentigern, but off hand I don't recall who wrote it. Varlaam (talk) 00:34, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

Cundiʒeorn
Is this orthography correct, or should it be written Cundiȝeorn with a yogh? --Kiwi (talk) 03:01, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

Information about the life of Owein ap Urien is suspect and not cited.
This is the section I mean: However, other historic accounts claim Owain and Teneu (also known as Thaney) had a love affair whilst he was still married to his wife Penarwen and that her father, King Lot, separated the pair after she became pregnant. Later, allegedly, after Penarwen died, Tenue/Thaney returned to King Owain and the pair were able to marry before King Owain met his death battling Bernicia in 597 AD.

What "other historic accounts"? Specific items I have never encountered elsewhere: "love affair while still married to Penarwen" "after Penarwen died ... the pair were able to marry" "Owain met his death in 597"

This sounds like something from a novel, perhaps. 2600:6C55:6D00:109B:D008:10C1:59E4:7C5 (talk) 03:45, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
