• I think you mean Arête rather than Arete.  Done
• " larger mountain walking routes" by larger do you really mean longer?  Done
• " as Old Red Sandstone" there appears no reason for this to be italicised.  Done
• "The three levels of " why is three levels in italics?  Done
• Indeed, a lot of the landforms noted are in italics, I don't think there's a good reason for that. – Being Ireland's largest mountain, I believe that some of these terms are reasonably widely known (especially amongst climbers), and thus have put into italics?
• Devonian is mentioned in the infobox but nowhere else.  Done updated Geology section
• "3,000-foot (910 m) in " this shouldn't be adj=on!  Done
• "steel cross. In 2014, this steel cross" repetitive.  Done
• " (Ballinskelligs Sandstone Formation)" is mentioned in the infobox but nowhere else.  Done updated Geology section
• "Climber and author Jim Ryan" avoid false titles, so "The climber and author.."  Done
• "eleven shillings and two cents " not pence? Strange...  Done - this must be pence
• "70 cents " if this is Euro cents, link it.  Done
• "A State-sponsored " why capital S?  Done
• "the IT still " no clue about this abbreviation.  Done Irish Times
• "park?".[30]" remove the full stop.  Done
• "n 2018; the" a comma rather than a semi-colon here.  Done
• "attended over 40 fatalities" more than.  Done
• " noting that "many in the" grammar doesn't work for me here. many were? or start the quote later, i.e. noting that many were..."  Done, started quote later.
• " the col between" col is overlinked.  Done
• " above the col of the" here too.  Done
• Two single-sentence paras there, could they be merged into other appropriate paras?  Done
• Check completeness of refs, i.e ref 33 has no accessdate.  Done
• Make sure date formats are consistent, e.g. ref 21 uses ISO while others use DMY.  Done
• DoBIH is overlinked.  Done
• Iveragh Peninsula is mentioned as a category but nowhere else in the article.  Done very good spot!

That's it for the first pass, so on hold. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 10:42, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Response

Thank you for that The Rambling Man, much appreciated. Have made all the above changes except for the use of italics for features - being Ireland's highest mountain, I think that these terms are more widely known, and thus wanted to highlight? Looking forward to your comments. Britishfinance (talk) 11:47, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

No worries. Re: italics, I haven't seen anything in MOS either prohibiting or encouraging the use of italics in these circumstances (unless I'm mistaken of course) so I think as long as you apply a consistent approach i.e. italics for every single instance, then I probably can't quibble in this GA review. Let me know your thoughts, and I'll do a final review later. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 12:03, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Great The Rambling Man. I have fixed it that where italics are used, it is consistent throughout. Hopefully, that works. Thanks again. Britishfinance (talk) 12:34, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Awesome, this is good to go, so promoting. Nice work. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 07:31, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
