Irish American Baseball Hall of Fame

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article on non-notable "hall of fame" that functions primarily to promote a Midtown Manhattan sports bar(and duly spammed by a now-dormant paid editor). Fails GNG, lacks significant independent secondary sourcing. It's so inconsequential that a 2015 article on the bar in The New York Times didn't even mention it.

 * Delete. Completely non-notable topic, the fact it is housed in a NY bar of which doesn't even have inherent notability is another giveaway. Ajf773 (talk) 10:28, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. MLB.com has briefly noted the induction ceremonies several times, but there is really little else. The New York Daily News wrote about it once that I can see, but that probably says more about the randomness of Bill Murray having been inducted. The cited NYT source talks about Red Foley but says nothing about Foley's IABHOF selection. The Fleitz book, listed as further reading, discusses some Irish Americans in the Baseball Hall of Fame, but I don't see anything about the IABHOF. EricEnfermero (Talk) 08:37, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
