Talk:Saint Winifred

message: Hi. I just edited a minor thing I noticed. The native Welsh of Winefride isn't 'Gwenfrewy' as the article stated but 'Gwenffrewi'. - zippy.fuzz@gmail.com 15.02 (GMT) 16/11/06
: I notice both spelling are found if you Google it. Who is to say which is correct? Talskiddy 18:24, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Possibly some rewording is needed. Gwenfrewy is apparently the modern Welsh equivalent of the original, but perhaps not the version in common use? Walgamanus 09:11, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

text: The standard Welsh spelling is 'Gwenfrewi'; I've corrected the name in the article. (Welsh 'f' is pronounced 'v', if somebody feels like putting an IPA pronunciation in). Enaidmawr 00:19, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Is the "shrine destroyed" mentioned in the fourth paragraph the shrine at Holywell or in Shropshire?  A source (the same I mention above in regard to the spelling "Wenefreda") mentions that a crowd of 1500 gathered at Holywell, probably for the feast day, in 1629.  --L Hamm 00:35, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

message: In the fist line, isn't various variations a little redundant? Would "numerous variations" sound better?Rhodesisland (talk) 08:24, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
