I couldn't establish that this meets WP:NOTABILITY. I did propose a merge, 2 support and, 1 oppose ( on the grounds that it wasn't worthy of a section in the main article when other departments didn't have that, but agreed it was of dubious notability. Has been tagged for notability for 7 years; time for a resolution.  removed prod. Boleyn (talk) 08:20, 31 March 2015 (UTC) Boleyn (talk) 08:20, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge. No RS present to establish stand-alone notability. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 08:31, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete, but do not merge. I'm also not convinced that this is independently notable, but as I already wrote in Talk:Trinity College, Dublin re an ongoing merge proposal from last August, it seems to be too low-level an academic subunit of Trinity to have any place on the main article for the whole university, and there is no intermediate-level article to merge to. —David Eppstein (talk) 15:50, 31 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Redirect to William Rowan Hamilton, where it is mentioned. The Institute doesn't seem to be independently notable, as I could not find much in the way of secondary sources that were not PR. But that it exists and was formed as part of the 200th anniversary of Hamilton's birth is verifiable and is mentioned in Hamilton's article. The institution is a plausible search term, so a redirect seems reasonable. --Mark viking (talk) 10:05, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
