Clare Youth Theatre


No indication of significance for this theater group. The article does have as sources newpaper pages stating that they have performed, but to me this is not the nontrivial kind of coverage we'd want to have an article about this. Author's explanation of the notability of this group is "I believe an article is required as it an Irish Theatre group and contributes to Irish Theatre in general." However, there's nothing magical about Irish theatre groups that gives them automatic significance. As far as I can tell, this is what we'd call a "community theater" here- every town has several of these but they aren't generally significant. Friday (talk) 20:16, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. The term "trivial" in the context of notability refers to published items that are no more than directory items. The references includes here are non-trivial and adequately establish notability. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 21:04, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I just looked at all the links again, and what they establish is that this a youth theater group that puts on shows. Unless Wikipedia is trying to be a directory of all organizations, I don't see how this makes it an encyclopedic topic.  Friday (talk) 21:18, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete again. No claim to notability. Providing links to media reports about the shows they put on are not claims to notability. Sandstein 21:56, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete or Speedy Delete absolutely no evidence of notability. Sorry, kids.  Xtifr tälk 10:34, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete It's not Broadway, folks.--WaltCip 16:55, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Its part of the Irish theatre scene. Exiledone 19:12, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
 * If someone started a wiki project who's goal was to detail anything and everything relevant to any theater activities in Ireland, I bet they would want this content. Friday (talk) 22:47, 16 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete qualifies as a speedy under WP:CSD as a group with no asserted notability. Eluchil404 09:35, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete I'm of English ancestory, so I don't much care for the Irish in general.  That said, this youth theater group bares little significance in the grand scheme of Irish Theater, and should be deleted as it is trivial and lacks general relevance.
 * Delete. It's a youth group that might easily disappear in a year or two if funding dries up.  If someone had the goal of detailing anything and everything relevant to any theater activities in Ireland, I bet they would want this content AS A PARAGRAPH in a larger article, and I'll bet they could find it easily with a google search or by getting a brochure from the group.

 * Delete per John. --TheOtherBob 19:40, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
