WP:WINAD. This article is merely a list of names belonging to a language (i.e. a word list) with no prose or explanatory text or encyclopedic purpose. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. This is the kind of thing that Wiktionary is made for, and so it has been transwikied to Wiktionary and may now be deleted. It is now at wikt:Appendix:Irish given names. See precedent at, for example, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of first names, Articles for deletion/List of given names by language, Articles for deletion/List of East African given names, Articles for deletion/List of Vietnamese given names, Articles for deletion/List of Slavic given names, Articles for deletion/List of Zulu first names, Articles for deletion/List of Persian given names, Articles for deletion/List of Zazaki given names, Articles for deletion/List of Hungarian given names, Articles for deletion/List of the most common Russian names, Articles for deletion/List of Lithuanian given names‎, Articles for deletion/List of French given names, Articles for deletion/List of Armenian given names 2, Articles for deletion/List of Portuguese given names, etc. Deletion after transwiki is standard procedure.

 * Keep Unlike some other name lists, this one is referenced and has 633 words of body text, making it far more than a stub. It would be a shame to delete this here and then see it also deleted from Wiktionary, since there is no assurance that project wiill keep it. Inkpaduta 19:40, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Why do you say there is no assurance the project will keep it? It have been moved into the Wiktionary mainspace already; I am a Wiktionary editor as well. Dmcdevit·t 20:24, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
