POV edit war brewing
There is an edit war brewing at Gaelic Athletic Association where two editors with a clear anti-GAA agenda are extrapolating all manner of novel interpretations of rules and obscure sources to put the most negative spin possible on the GAA's rule book. Please have a look at the talk page. --Eamonnca1 (talk) 00:44, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
- What edit war are you talking about? Talk page discussion is hardly a POV edit war. Whilst you are expanding the situation to includeevery single discussion on the articles talk page. In one particular discussion you deliberately influenced it by canvassing editors as you weren't getting your way. Your telling of the situation here is also highly POV and a clear attempt to yet again influence any debate by posting a very loose explaination that at best aims to preform any opinions and thoughts into any editors heads before they even get to the article. In fact it reads more like a call to arms to defend to the GAA rather than an honest attempt to strive for neutrality. Mabuska (talk) 00:59, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
- Do you understand the meaning of "brewing"? You were the one who sent me over here, you told me to take it to the appropriate wikiproject page. My tone is not POV, I'm warning everyone here that there are editors who are pushing POV and people here might want to head on over and make sure that NPOV is adhered to. --Eamonnca1 (talk) 02:38, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
- Do you understand what an edit-war is? Seeing as i haven't been involved in one and am participating on the articles talk page and have no intentions on starting an edit-war, there is no edit-war brewing. Also i never sent you here, i told you to take it to WikiProject Ireland and the Neutral POV Board - you came here yourself. There is nothing wrong in raising the issue here other than the possibility of bias - the main problem however is your pov-laden message. Naturally you wouldn't see your tone as POV, most people usually don't. Mabuska (talk) 11:20, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
- You did send me here. You sent me to the "appropriate wikiproject page" and then complained when I came here. Stop misrepresenting me, stop the ad-hominem attacks and start contributing something to wikipedia like you said you'd do. --Eamonnca1 (talk) 16:36, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

More eyes needed
Could uninvolved editors who are part of this project give their opinion on this section re sectarianism. Mo ainm~Talk 12:18, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
- More eyes needed? Very curious title Mo ainm. Anyways to clarify for anyone - the section in discussion is also to do with nationalism and notable rules, not just sectarianism. Hence i renamed the discussion section to a more appropriate title which means we need to repost the link: [1]. Mabuska (talk) 14:26, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
- My link is good please don't refactor other editors comments as it is seen as vandalism. Also editors do not need a synopsis from you they can read. Mo ainm~Talk 16:43, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
- Never edited your link, i provided my own. Hardly vandalising to provide a more accurate section heading than the very misleading and erroneous one that was given. Mabuska (talk) 23:12, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Can someone head over the Athletic Grounds and lend me a hand? I've expanded what I can but it needs a little bit more work. Also, can anyone in the area nip down there and get a photo of the place to include in the article? Thanks. --Eamonnca1 (talk) 22:15, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Gaelic Games Ireland Map - Dublin
Hi guys. Due to Dublin's recent success in the hurling, I've noticed they are now declared as a dual county on their wiki page. So, I went about adjusting the map below. However, I tried colouring Dublin in using the newest version of MS Paint. I obviously haven't done it right as all the other counties coloured in, in green are done so in some sort of latice colour patern. Anyone know how to do it correctly ? ManfromDelmonte (talk) 07:48, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
- I'm going to nominate this for deletion per as WP:OR Gnevin (talk) 19:24, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
- A bit harsh ? Each county page template states wether the county is hurling/football or dual county dominated as is. ManfromDelmonte (talk) 21:30, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
- They probably shouldn't make such cut and dry statement. They should be considered by some and a references Gnevin (talk) 21:38, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

2011 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final
2011 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final selected for discussion at Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates#September 18. They go on the Wikipedia front page in the top corner. Somebody who knows about it might want to know that. --86.40.104.77 (talk) 17:58, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
Hello! I've recently run across this article and its corresponding AfD. The article was written by a new editor and appears to be written in a very colloquial/essay-like manner. It's sourced and from what I can tell, is about the history of Limerick GAA. I think the members of this Wikiproject may be able to understand the article better than probably anyone else so I thought I'd come here and ask if anyone can take a look at the article and respond in the AfD regarding the subject of the article and also let us know if there's salvageable content in the article. I would hate to lose content due to lack of knowledge of sport in Ireland. Thanks for your time. OlYeller21Talktome 22:07, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
Notability criteria
Following on from above, re Treaty Sarsfields, could this project work out notability criteria for GAA clubs? That might prevent further tagging for speedy deletion of new articles about clubs, and seems necessary since the standard sports notability criteria are focussed heavily on individuals and are not really any help for dealing with GAA clubs. ComhairleContaeThirnanOg (talk) 21:22, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
- Borrowing from other codes (rubgy) A Senior County championship or notable current or past members is clear indication of notability Gnevin (talk) 17:00, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
Navbox improvements
Per WP:HLIST (more details in this signpost article), a group of us are improving the accessibility, standards-compliance and speed of rendering of navboxes, using a script, and with a Bot requested. However, some of your navboxes aren't suitable for conversion by those tools, as they use a different structure. I've converted one manually - please help by converting others.

Notability
Would any of the following be considered notable for their Gaelic football or hurling activities? Alan Coomey Brian Currane Brian Shortall Cathal Corr Cian Quigley David Stynes Derek Mulligan Diarmuid Griffin Donal Boylan Fearghal Purcell Fergal Bradshaw Joe Cunnane John Lack O'Sullivan Liam O'Connor (Irish footballer) Michael Currane Roch Hanmore They are all included in Category:Irish players of Australian rules football but all appear to not meet WP:GNG or WP:NSPORTS for their Australian rules football exploits. Hack (talk) 08:31, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- David Stynes,Donal Boylan , Fearghal Purcell play(ed) at Senior level so yes. Everyone else no Gnevin (talk) 11:58, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
- just picked up on a few articles listed above proposed for deletion and I cant se why they fail to meet notability reasons given for their deletion. Maybe you know the reasons for each one but it would be useful to share that with others. Can someone please oppose/support those articles listed under Wikipedia:WikiProject Ireland/Article alerts. Thanks DubhEire (talk) 13:46, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
- Surely the Aussie rule players are WP:NSPORTS notable for their role in the Ireland national Australian rules football team? I presume that international matches are the highest level of Australian rules football. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:55, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
- Not really, the GAA has international also but like the AFL they aren't considered major. Internationals don't get a mention on Australian_rules_football Gnevin (talk) 09:38, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
- Yep, none of these articles go close to meeting WP:GNG such is the low level of their achievements. Hack (talk) 12:14, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Articles proposed for deletion
Many GAA articles are now being proposed for deletion. While some are poorly sourced - I will accept some blame here, the main question is their notability. I do feel that it is important to list Junior, Intermediate, Minor, etc. if we have the data at hand. I believe these are intrinsic to understanding the GAA and Gaelic games. Pmunited (talk) 17:24, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
- List here while some shouldn't be deleted, you can't argue with the prod. Some have gone years with out RS and other issues. Gnevin (talk) 13:03, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
Cleanup listing
Are members of this project aware of toolserver's CleanupListing bot which lists articles in needs of attention which are within the scope of a WikiProject? This project's Cleanup List is at http://toolserver.org/~svick/CleanupListing/CleanupListing.php?project=Gaelic%20Games
The summary at the top of the current listing says:
This is a cleanup listing for WikiProject Gaelic Games generated on 11 February 2012, 11:01:34 UTC.
Of the 5554 articles in this project 3595 or 64.7 % are marked for cleanup, with 5541 issues in total.
Article alerts shows lots of PRODs or AFDs of articles within the scope of this project. It seems to me that unless this project starts some sort of systematic cleanup, then many more deletions are likely. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 03:43, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
- The cleanup listing is also available broken down by category at http://toolserver.org/~svick/CleanupListing/CleanupListingByCat.php?project=Gaelic_games. It is worth noting that 2493 of the 5541 issues are regarding 'Persondata templates without short description parameter'. Teester (talk) 21:14, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
- A bot run maybe possible to sort that issue Gnevin (talk) 09:30, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
