This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Northern Ireland. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Northern Ireland|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Northern Ireland. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.
This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to UK.

Article about a defunct music festival, not properly sourced as passing notability criteria for events. As always, festivals are not "inherently" notable just because they existed, and have to show reliable source coverage about them to pass WP:GNG -- but the only "reference" cited here at all is a Facebook post, not a reliable or notability-building source, and a WP:BEFORE search only turned up unrelated coverage of other similarly-named events in Massachusetts or Australia rather than anything about this.
Since the event apparently went defunct a decade ago and thus might not Google well, I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with better access to archived British and Irish media reportage from the early 2010s than I've got can find enough to salvage it, but nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to be referenced much better than this.

- Delete. Per nom and WP:NEVENT. (This relatively short-lived and mostly local-interest music festival has not been the subject of significant coverage in reliable/independent sources. What coverage I can find is mostly ROTM "events listings" and the usual pre-event promotion. The lineup for the 2011 event involved only (as far as I can see) local/non-notable performers. While the 2012 and 2013 (and to a degree the 2014) events did seem to attract a few notable bands (which are sufficiently notable to have Wikipedia articles), this music festival does not "inherit" notability from those bands. And the only sources that I can find, to establish even these basic facts, are the same type of events listings coverage we might expect for any event or gig anywhere.) It might, just about, be worthwhile redirecting to the Narrow Water Castle article. As an alternative to deletion. But, even that seems a bit much (as, as of today, the castle article doesn't mention the music festival. In fact, the subject festival isn't mentioned in any other articles - which in itself is kinda telling....) Guliolopez (talk) 15:35, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

Fails GNG. The Daily Record is a tabloid therefore shouldn't be used in BLPs. Dougal18 (talk) 14:21, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: I've tried .ie and .uk searches for sources, what's given about her call up is all there is to be found. Nothing else, I don't see notability for athletes or GNG either. Oaktree b (talk) 20:19, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Scotland-related deletion discussions. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 21:39, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
