Armagh GAA Senior Leagues

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No details about the competition here just a dump of game information Gnevin (talk) 13:20, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Support - this is an embarrassingly bad GAA article. Armagh GAA coverage in Wikipedia is gradually improving and this article is beyond redemption, someone needs to start afresh. Brocach (talk) 23:13, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Armagh GAA until sources are found. As it is a successful Gaelic football team and is the home county and league of Crossmaglen Rangers there should be plenty. --86.40.110.93 (talk) 02:09, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment -- In soccer, we only allow articles on clubs down to a certain level. Local leagues in which all the players are amateurs are generally NN.  It is for a GAA taskforce to establish a boundary between the notable clubs, probably those playing at a national (here meaning all-Ireland) level and local amateur sport.  My preference would be to redirect ot Armagh GAA, but I am not Irish and do not really know.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:22, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

 * The Gaelic Athletic Association is very much part of the fabric of Irish society, to a much greater degree than most other sports in most other countries. Every parish in Ireland has a club; the clubs compete with each other in each of the 32 counties, and onwards into provincial and national club competitions. The counties, each drawing the best players from its own clubs, compete in a national league and in provincial and national championships. It is a hugely important part of Irish life and the fact that all players are amateurs does not diminish the notability of any club or county. The role that a GAA club has within the parish is not comparable to that of a NN amateur local soccer team in England.
 * I am not saying that there should not be an article titled Armagh Senior Leagues. (The "GAA" is superfluous, since no-one else runs Armagh Senior Leagues.) But the present effort is just a stale list of match results and doesn't belong in Wikipedia. The coverage of Armagh GAA clubs, players and competitions is gradually improving but this article in its present form should be deleted. Brocach (talk) 02:01, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

I agree with Brocach - this article is totally out of place here. I can accept a list of champions (and perhaps runner-up) but this seems to be just a list of results. Pmunited (talk) 17:25, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - contrary (apparently) to the title, this is just a list of result from one league season, which the creator seemingly got bored of and couldn't be bothered to finish. Nuke from orbit and restart with appropriate scope/content if anyone feels like it -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:02, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
