Irish calendar

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Per WP:OR and Not dictionary, article seems to an attempt list Irish (Gaelic) names for annual events  Gnevin (talk) 12:21, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep The article has a lot of useful information.  It just needs someone to provide the sources.  Keraunos (talk) 01:31, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - the excess of Gaelic names can be edited out, and the dearth of citations can be edited in, by the normal editing process. Those are not reasons to delete. Bearian (talk) 20:59, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment Can people explain what this is about, I'm entirely lost Gnevin (talk) 00:15, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment It should make clear that this is based on our old pre-Norman and pre-Christian calendar (such as we still know of it), and is not used today. Of course that wouldn't stop anyone printing it up for the Irish-American market.Red Hurley (talk) 11:16, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Isn't this (pre-Christian at least) covered in Celtic calendar? Finn Rindahl (talk) 12:03, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I see no references to this hybrid form ever being in use,  DGG ( talk ) 03:42, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Keep. Needs improvment in the introduction, but otherwise acceptable.--Dmol (talk) 06:10, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - I improved the intro to give context -- The Irish calendar is a pre-Christian Celtic system of timekeeping used during Ireland's Gaelic era to define the beginning and length of the day, the week, the month, the seasons, quarter days, and festivals.-- The Irish calendar is one of many calendars that go into making up the Celtic calendar and is not the Irish Calendar (upper case "C" calendar) used by Irish hagiologists to study ecclesiastical and secular leaders (took me about 45 minutes to figure all this out). -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 15:03, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep it could be useful to readers; especially those researching various dating systems.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 16:27, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep The article can only be improved. Besides, there is no good reason for deletion. SanchiTachi (talk) 18:52, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep per the comments above. ~Asarlaí 20:50, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
