Sean MacBride Peace Prize

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable award. Only mentions are PR when the organization announces the winner. Any other coverage is strictly because Pvt Manning was this years winner not because of the award itself. Caffeyw (talk) 09:33, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge with International Peace Bureau, or keep. It doesn't attract big press coverage in the USA, but I found plenty of news stories from around the world about people being awarded the prize, and it's mentioned in many books. It may not quite meet the detailed coverage requirement for independent notability, but there are plenty of sources to verify the information, going back well before Manning was awarded the prize. It's awarded by a prestigious (Nobel-Prize-winning) and 122-year-old institution and named after another Nobel laureate, so it's not some random newcomer with no authority: it's reasonable to merge it even if it doesn't quite cross the bounds of notability. --Colapeninsula (talk)

 * Merge or keep per Colapeninsula. The nominator should familiarize himself with WP:ATD and WP:BEFORE. postdlf (talk) 15:31, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge is a reasonable outcome in such cases. Bearian (talk) 17:13, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep has enough newspaper coverage of winners. Prestigious award. So many awards receive no coverage, and this one in India where coverage is sparse to begin with (WP:INDAFD) giving the existing sources even more weight. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 17:15, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
