I have been there- it is a field (unless this is an Irish Brigadoon then that would be notable!) Aatomic1 23:30, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete unless anyone can provide evidence that it's an actual settlement. Even the article states it appears to be a townland. Huh? So far I can't find anything conclusive. --Oakshade 03:24, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge and Reidrect per user:Aatomic1 below. --Oakshade 21:21, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
  • This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 08:10, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. No evidence of notability; probably also falls under speedy delete criterion A7. ➔ This is REDVEЯS 08:16, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Hold on: The two links on the page show it is a real place. At minimum it is the name of an electoral district. But, it may be *just* the name given for an electoral ward, rather than the name of a village or town. But if it is a town then we normally assume notablity. I'll come off the fence when we figure this out.Obina 08:45, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Merge and redirect into Butlersbridge, the nearest village. A townland is not a town, it is the smallest official division of land in Ireland. They are often just some fields and a few houses. Having individual articles for all 60,000 of them is probably overkill. Bláthnaid 10:35, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment I Afd'ed this version of the article - a hoax possibly only known to those with knowledge of the area. Sarah777 has removed the hoax element leaving only the WP:V bit. I am quite happy to Merge and redirect as long as no one relies on me to do this as I do not have the technical knowledge. Aatomic1 13:41, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge Redirect I mean - nothing much to merge beyond that this place is on the list of electoral wards. But the ideal place to redirect it to would be a list of all the local electoral districts. But if no one creates such a page a redirect to Butlersbridge is fine.Obina 22:20, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
