 * This is a significant feud in Ireland which is notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lottolads (talk • contribs) 18:54, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTNEWS. The article is in poor shape and the gangs do not even have their own article. Not every murder is significant. AmericanAir88(talk) 19:24, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Changed to Keep per Uncle G. AmericanAir88(talk) 03:13, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

 * This particular series of murders has its own name, the Kinahan-Hutch feud, per . It has had it since 2017, as you can see, and it has been documented through the years to .  The gangs do not need their own articles for the named feud between them to be something that has been named, and documented (with progressive timelines) in detail over almost half a decade; by more people than solely M. Lally in the Irish Times, too.  Stephen Breen (the former Sunday Life journalist) uses this name for the feud in xyr books, for example.  Uncle G (talk) 08:16, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - Feud is notable per User:Uncle G's sources. Suggest a re-name as "Kinahan-Hutch Feud" appears to be the WP:COMMONNAME. FOARP (talk) 09:17, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - per User:Uncle G's sources, and support the rename suggested above. The article being in poor shape and the gangs themselves not having articles are strange reasons to argue for deletion. Hugsyrup 10:08, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable per WP:RS - BBC etc. Wm335td (talk) 19:31, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
