Dia daoibh...I need to know how to say "please inform me when you update the page." I am writing to a single person, but his organization will update the page, not him personally (hence "go gcoigeartaí sibh," but "le do thoil")

Would this be correct?

Cur in iúl go gcoigeartaí sibh an leathanach, le do thoil.

go raibh maith agat...

Déarfainn:

Cuir in iúl dom nuair a thugann sibh an leathanach chun dáta

"coigeartaigh" Vs "tabhair chun dáta" ?

Má leasaíonn sibh bhur leathanach, cuir in iúl dom é le'd thoil.

Bheinn buíoch díot ach é chuir in iul dom nuair a leasaíonn sibh bhur leathanach.

(coigeartú is a new one on me, I had to look it up. But I prefer leasú - improve, edit)

Not my intention to nit-pick here, but a common mistake made here is the spelling of "cuir".

verb = cuir
noun = cur | genetive case of the noun: cuir

Bheinn buíoch díot as cur in iúl dom nuair a leasaítear bhur leathanach

Mo choir féin , mo choir féin, mo mhór choir féin.

Nit pick all you like FnaB. I often make mistakes like that since my written Irish is too seldom used, and has not had the benefit of a teacher correcting it for twenty years...
