An Góilín

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Subject is a relatively small non-profit group (a singing-circle or club) who meet occasionally in the bar/function-room of the Irish National Teachers' Organisation building in Dublin. While the club may have niche notability in a limited sphere, I don't see how WP:CLUB or WP:GNG is met. In terms of: I have tried to find sources to support a claim. But I just don't see how this non-profit music club meets project notability guidelines... Guliolopez (talk) 11:17, 11 September 2019 (UTC)
 * WP:GNG, a search for sources only seems to return limited passing coverage in a few reliable sources. Like this Irish Times piece which talks about the "40th anniversary of the founding of the vibrant weekly singing circle, An Góilín Traditional Singer’s Club". However, this Irish Times piece, as with much of the other coverage I can find, is just a passing mention. (In an "event listing" which covers 4 or 5 other events/performances.) Similar coverage, where I can find it, seems to have the same issue.
 * WP:CLUB, it would seem that the group's scope is not "national or international in scale", and that it is not a "nationally well-known local organization".
 * WP:NOTINHERITED, it would seem that some members/visitors to the club (like Christy Moore) may themselves be notable. But that notability doesn't "transfer".
 * WP:BAND, while some of the club/group's events have been recorded and released (as albums?), none of these releases would seem to have had material chart success. Or otherwise met the criteria which might meet the criteria for a band or ensemble.
