Irish editors with expertise in Chief of the Name claims might be interested in reviewing edits and assertions associated with articles relating to the MacCarthy Reagh and Prince of Carbery. And related AfD. Personally, I don't have much issue with someone from the Colorado creating their own personal website to assert that, having talked to the "McCarthys of Oak Bluffs" (himself?) and the "MacCarthys of Vancouver" (cousins?), and not having heard back from the "McCarthys of Washington" (lost in post?) or objections from the "MacCarthys of Springhouse" (deceased?), he now considers himself to be elected "24th Prince of Carbery and 20th Chief of the Name McCarthy". Since late 2025. I do, however, have questions/concerns about editing Wikipedia to reflect these claims. Input from other editors (with interest/expertise in this area) might be useful....

It's a perfectly cromulent claim, similar to when I asked if there were any objections to me being God-Emperor of the World, and nobody did! What, not my fault if you didn't hear the question! /s Obviously, delete with extreme trouting wherever encountered! (Maybe we should use hurleys? Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 12:19, 9 July 2026 (UTC)

Nicely put. This nonsense is free to air elsewhere - trout, hurleys, salmon or whatever it takes to keep it out of the encyclopedia. What is it with these attempts to "revive" a (for its time somewhat progressive) system which died so long ago - when the last proper gathering of a kin group to select a new chief is so long ago it's basically lost to history.
