Comment from SK53
Hi,
When altering names in the Gaeltacht can you please take care to move any existing ("english") name into "name:en". It is no longer possible to search for things like Great Blasket Island: many folk without good knowledge of the Gaelic will not know it by the current name. So someone interested in looking at places mentioned in something like "20 Years a Growing" will not be able to now.
These changes became apparent from someone using the "english" names for genealogy purposes, when most historical census data uses such names.
Regards,
Jerry aka SK53

I'm reverting these changes, not because they are wrong, but because safely merging the older values of name tags with the changes you made is altogether too complex in a single operation. I don't have time to review all these objects right now, but will endeavour to do so over the next 3-4 days.
Sorry about this, but it's important to consider that OSM data has many uses.
This is the changeset https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/101266567
