You know what is the big problem here? Pretty much all on this page concerns the British Isles. I'd wager there's at least some material from the mainland Europe. Can't anyone knowledgeable write a bit on it?

"If you aren't him, then you apparently got your brain from the same discount retailer, so..." - FighteerWhy is Cú Chullain referred to as "Cèulainn" on this page? I'm not an expert on Celtic mythology, but growing up in Ireland I've never heard the name before. Do a Google search for "Cèulainn" and see how many results you get (5 including this page, two of which are in Spanish). Heck, "è" isn't even a valid Irish letter, that would be "é" (with that corrected, "Céulainn" gets no results).
I'm changing all instances of "Cèulainn" unless someone can show me a place where that name is used.
As a side note, C.C. from Code Geass is claimed to be a reference to Cú Chullain. Um.... what?

Big Bads? I think in relation to Irish Mythology there are two examples of Big Bads. In the Mythological Cycle, I feel the Fomorians fill this role as they always seem to be there to hinder the success of the numerous invaders of Ireland, while their King Balor seems to fill the role of "Bigger Bad" since he only shows up towards the end of the Mythological Cycle. In the Ulster Cycle, I think Maeve fits this role perfectly. She's mentioned and somewhat foreshadowed in the stories of the cycle and is then the main antagonist of the Táin Bó Cúailnge. She then also plays a part in the Death of Cú Chulainn, the main hero of the Ulster Cycle. So would this be worth adding to the page?
