League of Ireland of male water polo

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This body does not appear to exist, and no evidence that it ever has done. Waterpolo in Ireland comes under Swim Ireland. Badly translated from poor Spanish article (section about Africa seems unlikely in either language); sources don't support anything. No evidence of existence of this organisation. Not an asset to the encyclopedia. Pam D  09:58, 18 June 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete - Per the nomination, I can find nothing to indicate that an entity or league called the "League of Ireland" (for water polo) exists at all. Suggesting that, at the very least, the article title here is misplaced. Based on a consideration/notion of "were we to keep this, where would we move it?", I went looking to find out what the title should/could be. The only candidate I could find is something called the "Mens National League Division 1" - which is one of 9 or 10 leagues run by the Irish Water Polo Organisation - an organisation which itself is a subset of Swim Ireland. Even if the title were to be moved/changed, there is nothing to indicate that the "Mens National League Division 1" meets WP:GNG, WP:NORG or WP:SPORTSEVENT. There is almost zero coverage of the league at all. And the very little coverage that can be found only (barely) confirms existence - and not notability. In short, this should be deleted. As significantly outside of project scope. (I cannot even advocate a redirect. Because the title is misleading and incorrect. And there is no potential target article for the content or the title).

 * Delete - this brief article is written in poor English (it uses the phrase "most largest"). It only has two references which are both external links  - one of which is a link to the League's own website, one which does not appear to mention the League. Vorbee (talk) 15:14, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
