not determined
Note: The user who nominated this page didn't create a discussion page, so I'll do it myself - even though I don't think the page warrants a nomination, let alone deletion - in order to properly facilitate a debate on the issue. If the user in question reads this, hopefully they will specify their reasons for the nomination. NaLaochra (U|T) 00:57, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- According to the talk page, the AfD reason was "This article is promotional and is non encyclopedic and unworthy of an entry in Wikipedia." (per User:194.46.181.107) No recommendation on my part. --Metropolitan90 23:05, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep - The Blizzards are one of the biggest Irish bands around at the moment, which in itself makes their lead singer and main songwriter notable. But if that's not enough to warrant an article, he's hosted a radio series on a national radio station, and he's played 15 times at senior level for Leinster, one of the top-ranked rugby teams in Europe. He is known by the vast majority of music fans in Ireland. The article could be tidied up a bit, but it is most definitely notable for the reasons listed above.

- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 11:08, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep Notable as an individual outside The Blizzards, as Na Laochra has explained. Bláthnaid 22:21, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep (and probably a Speedy Keep) Easily satisfies WP:MUSIC and manages to satisfy WP:SPORT twice, in two different disciplines. A few more references would, of course, be nice and it needs tidying. FlowerpotmaN·(t) 22:57, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep But in need of a serious re-write. DoktorDec 22:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
