Irish gaming clan. Supported by a couple of websites, but I wouldn't call them reliable independent sources, and I don't think the article demonstrates this group's notability. NawlinWiki (talk) 18:28, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep My definition of notability is Something worthy of note, so therefore being the largest and currently most competitivly successful online gaming clan in Ireland and independantly hosting over 10% of that countries online gaming servers is worthy of note. With first place finishes in 2 of the 3 big tournaments at the largest lan events held in Ireland this year and last Irish E Sports displays all the criteria to be of note in the gaming community Dixy79 (talk) 23:34, 11 October 2008 (UTC) This template must be substituted.[reply]
  • Keep By claiming not notable you're denying the existence of gaming in Ireland by removing a fore running group in Irish organised gaming PolarIce (talk) 23:48, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Irish eSports are a massive part of the Irish Gaming community and are doing much to push it forward. They run the most popular and best servers in Ireland and also compete well competitively. By claiming not notable you're setting the scene back Oisinjm (talk) 02:57, 12 October 2008 (UTC) This template must be substituted.[reply]
  • Delete as failing WP:GROUP due to the absence of reliable sources to verify the claims of notability. I would remind Dixy79 and Oisinjm that any discussion of notability should be within the community definition, not their own personal ones and to Polar Ice I would point out that to avoid an A7 speedy deletion an article only needs to assert notability however in order to be kept long-term it must be shown to meet the specific community guidelines.Nancy talk 05:18, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
