Your recent updates about 'planxties' to the article on 'Planxty' (the band)
[edit]Dear 'Arcane Gesture', 
Thank you for adding some text, on 4 April 2014, to the existing article on Planxty (the band), related to the original meaning of the 'planxties' composed by Turlough O'Carolan.
However, as I am sure you noticed, the article is primarily about the band itself (comprising Christy Moore, Andy Irvine, Dónal Lunny and Liam O'Flynn); in other words, it is not an article about O'Carolan's 'planxties'.
Therefore, I re-located the text you added into the article's existing section headed 'Etymology', where there was already some prose entered by previous editors about the association of the band's name with O'Carolan's 'planxties'.
Please may I suggest that you therefore consider re-working that 'Etymology' section in line with the WP:MOS? For example, the text you recently contributed now duplicates some in the original text in that section and will therefore need to be consolidated. Also, you added some text under a pseudo-header ('References'); please therefore consider using the standard Wikipedia templates for book citations instead of the 'raw' <ref> tags that you used. Then, please insert these new book citations within the text itself, since every point asserted in a WP article needs to be corroborated by a reference citation to a third-party source (in this case: the books you added under your own 'References' pseudo-header).
Finally, and given your interest and knowledge of the subject of O'Carolan's 'planxties', it might be worth for you to consider revising your recent text in conjunction with the existing Wikipedia article on Turlough O'Carolan, with the aim of providing concise encyclopedic material.
I am available to help with some of these tasks and would be happy to assist you, if you wish.
Thank you for your consideration to the above suggestions and for your commitment to improving our encyclopedia.
With kind regards for now;
