`  :Thanks for making a constructive effort to find a way forward. As I've pointed out a few times, vague caveats about the name only serve to denigrate it in a one-sided way; ``albeit controversially`` is unacceptable, but the sentence could end with a colon then ``alternative less widespread names include the Islands of the North Atlantic (IONA) or the Anglo-Celtic Isles, or sometimes the archipelago is described as Britain and Ireland or the British Isles and Ireland. A more concise alternative would be to end it with ``other names are in less widespread use.`` The ``Despite this dispute`` sentence would then be unnecessary. The Isle of Man is not geographically more significant than the Hebrides, the Orkney Islands and the Shetland Islands, and is not included in the style guides and dictionary definitions. The successive Irish names and dates are excessive detail for the intro, and I'd suggest ending the paragraph with ``all part of the present United Kingdom, which has been incorrect since the independence of what became the Republic of Ireland.`` If the paragraph can be more concise, good. The intro should also mention the other main sections of the article, and I suggested a paragraph on geography and geology above. ..,  `
