@Retroplum: New enough, long enough, meets core content policies. The part of the hook regarding him being the king of Dublin should be directly cited though. --Jakob (talk) 17:05, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

@Jakec: Okay I've added a reference identifying him as king of Dublin with the given dates. Retroplum (talk) 19:48, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

Actually, it seems that particular source is less than reliable,so I've found a different one. I've also removed the date his reign began since there seems to be no consensus as to this. Retroplum (talk) 15:21, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Some sources are behind paywalls, but good to go. --Jakob (talk) 17:09, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
