Talk:Manager (Gaelic games)

"Noted managers"
Hi. Per WP:LISTCRITERIA, selection/inclusion criteria for lists should be unambiguous, objective, and supported by sources. The current list of "noted managers" doesn't meet this expectation (in that is unclear what notability criteria has been used, and - even if it were clear - provides no sources to support). For example, why is Offaly's Eugene McGee included? Perhaps the subject should have an article - but doesn't at present. Typically the minimum criteria for a notability-based list is that the member has an article. A "no red links" criteria. Or, for example, why are managers with a limited number of titles/etc listed along side those with many. The inclusion criteria in List of Gaelic football managers seems to be length of tenure. And the List of All-Ireland Senior Football Championship winning managers seems to be number of All-Irelands. Unless other notability can be defined, I'm inclined to change what we have here to a prose-based summary (of the most prolific, most long-lived or most-travelled managers), and link to the "lists of hurling/football managers by wins/tenure" for the rest. Otherwise this becomes a CFORK with unclear/undefined/unsupported inclusion criteria... Guliolopez (talk) 23:06, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
 * It's been a week or so since my note above. As I hadn't heard back on the proposal/topic above, I've gone ahead and made the change. (Essentially paring back the "list of noted managers". From a seemingly arbitrary list. To a sub-set of the most successful managers in each code. With a link to the existing "list of winning managers" articles.)
