A fact from St Mary's Church, Llanfairpwllgwyngyll appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 17 April 2016 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Note I have removed (again) the garbled placename translation claiming to be sourced to a DK-published guidebook.
"Parish church of St Mary in Hollow of the White Hazel township near the rapid whirlpool and the parish church of St Tysilio with a red cave" is poor. Llan is usually either "parish" or "church"; the word "township" (tref) does not appear in the name although Pwllgwyngyll was the name of one of the two parish townships; pwll is a pool or (unlikely) a "pit"; "white hazel" is a mistranslation of gwyngyll, actually (probably) "white hazels", "white hazel-wood". There are plenty of better translations of the name; I've sourced one, see citation.Svejk74 (talk) 20:54, 24 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
