Hen erthygl Cymru:

[[de:Wales]] [[eo:Kimrio]] [[fr:Pays de Galles]] [[pl:Walia]] [[en:Wales]] Cymru ydy gwlad fach yng ngorllewin Ynys Prydain, a rhan o'r y Deyrnas Unedig efo Lloegr, Yr Alban a Gogledd Iwerddon.

Cymru ydy cartref yr iaith Cymraeg, er bod llai na chwarter y boblogaeth yn ei siarad hi.

[golygu] Wales?

In the English Wikipedia, the name Cymru is stated immediately in the first sentence. Is there any reason why the word "Wales" does not appear one single time throughout this entire article? Surely it is a startling omission not to mention the name by which other countries know this country... 84.9.34.22 02:44, 27 Awst 2006 (UTC)

If you mentioned the names other countries know this country, you'd have a very long list. I've added Wales because English and Welsh are treated as equal in Wales. Paul-L 19:19, 2 Medi 2006 (UTC)
A list almost as long as the number of languages in the world. One could as well ask why the English language wikipedia article on England does not include the name Lloegr, as that is the name used by the Welsh, the inhabitants of one of the only two countries which border on England, since the formation of that country!

Lloegr? Hehe... I never heard that before. How does one pronounce it, I wonder? I could tell people "I'm from Lloegr", and see the confusion on their faces :P
Thanks for adding the English name... although I do get the point about all the other languages in the world. 87.74.48.230 10:01, 5 Medi 2006 (UTC)
Lloegr is approxomately 'sl-oi-gr'. I'm from Lloegr = Dw i'n dod o Loegr (soft mutation causes the first 'l' to disappear). Paul-L 16:01, 9 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)

[golygu] Hanes Cymru?

Dwi ddim yn deall pam fod yr adran "Hanes Cymru" yn gorffen yn y 1280au; roeddwn i'n meddwl fod yr arfer hynny wedi mynd allan o ffasiwn ers dyddiau J.E. Lloyd! Yna mae pwt am ryfel Glyndŵr a'r Deddfau Uno yn dod dan y bennod "Gwleidyddiaeth" - bwlch anferth wedyn nes inni gyrraedd y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol. Yn fy marn i mae angen ail-ysgrifennu a threfnu hyn i gyd. Oes rhywun yn teimlo fel rhoi cynnig arni? Dwi'n fodlon i gyfrannu fy hun. Anatiomaros 21:03, 7 Rhagfyr 2006 (UTC)
