I notice the weight of evidence for the pre-Magnus school. Would you like to amend the table in the article with the ever-changing name, or would you like me to have a go?

"Unfortunately for scholars, the numerical calculations and chronology of this source are suspect;" - is the "unfortunately for scholars" assessment in the cited source? I cannot access the source to verify.--

No, that was my clumsy way of hinting at the chronicle's imperfect chronology. I've removed the first three words.--

The "Norwegian domination and diminishment" section gets bogged down with content unrelated to Lagmann. The section needs to be trimmed. Likewise, the route that Robert took on the first crusade is not directly relevant, considering we don't even know if Lagmann went on that crusade, or in fact on any other crusade. I would trim everything in the third paragraph after the of when Lagmann would have joined Robert's assembling forces, and then merge the following paragraph, which deals with where Lagmann would probably have died, into the third paragraph. Likewise, the route that Sigurðr took is unneeded, apart from the mention that he left from England.--

I've trimmed the Norwegian section a bit by cutting a bit about Ingimundr, cutting the bit about the shipwrecked Islesmen, removing the bit about Mac Lochlainn, and cutting a chunk about Domnall's doings in 1111. I'm not sure I'd like to cut too much more. I've removed the stuff on Robert and Sigurðr's crusades easily enough. I also added a bit about Lagmann's name to the first note of the article.--

Like I mentioned in the above point, the article unduly focuses on some extraneous material.--

Per
MOS:SELFREF, the self-reference of Wikipedia in the captions should be avoided. Instead, you could write captions such as the following: "A map of the north-western portions of the British Isles, where Lagmann was active" and "map of Europe and crusade destinations." Those examples could be more polished, but should convey my point.--

I've fixed the first caption. I've removed the other map since it dealt with locations, regarding Robert and Sigurðr's crusades, that have no be removed from the article.--

Could an IPA pronunciation of the subject's name be added please? There are two characters which look like variants of "o" and three instances of one that looks like "d" but that would be an assumption and put together with the familiar characters, the pronunciation of the full words may not be as may appear evident.
