The note about his death being "generally accepted" as 589 may need a citation, but the "citation needed" flag appears to be on the statement that 1 March 589 was a Tuesday, which is a simple mathematical fact about the Julian calendar that can be readily checked any number of ways. It seems odd to require documentation for such a thing. If the Welsh somehow presaged Pope Gregory's new calendar 1000 years early and made 1 March 589 a Sunday, that would indeed require a citation..Markjreed (talk)12:16, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Quick facts" section shows "Calixtus", links to page with spelling "Callixtus"Aa599 (talk)17:37, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Note: (Requester means infobox). The target article is inconsistent with itself, even preferring the one-L version in most of the article body, so I'm unsure what should be done with this. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos)20:34, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Done@Deacon Vorbis: It was a mis-spelling ofPope Callixtus II in the infobox who was listed in the "canonized_by =" field. In most of these cases the mis-spelling is setup as a redirect to the correct article. I just simply replaced the incorrect spelling (Pope Calixtus II) which is a redirect with the correct article title & spellingPope Callixtus II.Alucard 16❯❯❯ chat?21:40, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]How, and when, did St David become adopted as the patron saint of Wales? This seems to me to be a fundamental piece of information that is missing from the article.FreeFlow99 (talk)17:20, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
What does "David was officially recognised at the Holy See by Pope Callixtus II in 1120" mean? Elsewhere it is stated that he was canonised in 1123. Does this refer to something different or is the year incorrect?195.213.169.161 (talk)15:58, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The word "now" is used incorrectly in the text. I'd fix it, but there's no "Edit" button.90.202.97.45 (talk)22:48, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
