The result of the debate was move. —Wknight94 (talk) 04:00, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Moved this to here, Ben Laoigh is a mismatch of the proper gaelic name (i.e., where it is now) and the anglo-version (Ben Lui). Grinner 11:20, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)

I reckon it ought to be "Ben Lui". The OS (who have been adding a lot of Gaelic names to their maps recently) only give "Ben Lui" on both the Landranger and Explorer maps. I haven't got any recent guidebooks to double-check, but I'd think that Common names and Use English apply here. Besides which all the incoming links use the anglicised form. The article would of course still mention the Gaelic form in the first sentence. -- Blisco 16:37, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ben Cruachan

The Ben Cruachan page claims that at 1126m it is the highest mountain in Argyll and Bute, but if Ben Lui is 1130m and is in Argyll too, maybe that's wrong? MaherCoen 06:12, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
