These guidelines cover the style of language and writing to be used in Ireland-related articles. This includes both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. If you disagree with the conventions described here, or wish to add to them, please discuss it on the . Major changes relating to contentious issues with a north–south dimension, particularly Derry–Londonderry and Ireland–Republic of Ireland, should be discussed at before any amendments to the Manual of Style are considered.

The following four guidelines deal with the naming of articles. Generally, the spelling that is used for the article name is the spelling that should be used elsewhere too.

Where the English- and Irish-language names are the same or very nearly the same, but the spellings differ, use the English spelling. Example:

Where the English- and Irish-language names are different:

Use Connacht generally for the province, but Connaught where that form was used in official titles or names of entities, e.g. Connaught Rangers, Lord of Connaught, Connaught Telegraph.

Once the article name is established, any alternative name for the locale should be provided on the first line of the article (whether or not the name is widely used). Also add it to the appropriate field in the infobox. The remainder of the article should use only the place name as titled in the article. An exception to this is when a portion of the article is providing information specific to the naming of the place.

When mentioning other locales in the context of the article, conform to the rules for article titling above but do not include the alternative name along with it. An exception might be in the case of a name that is unlikely to have an article of its own. However, if a place name is significant enough to warrant both an English and an Irish name, it is probably significant enough for an article of its own, however brief.

For articles on places on the island of Ireland, show the modern name in English, Irish and, if appropriate, Scots in the infobox if the article has one.

For places in the Republic of Ireland, other names should be shown in parentheses immediately after the common name in the lead. For places in Northern Ireland, only show non-English-language names in parentheses after the bolded name if the name in that language demonstrates the origin of the common name. Other names and etymologies can be described in the body of the article (after the lead, if the article has one).
