Deletion of Joe Moran

Comment: I see nothing in National Hurling League or related articles that indicates it is a ''professional'' league, which means that Moran et al. do not qualify under  unless they have competed in the Olympics

Comment: All of these references are pure  that barely mention Moran, and result in article sentences such as "He did not start for Cork in their loss to Dublin but was drafted in at right half-back against Tipperary."  It is impossible to believe that the ARS doesn't have anything better to do.  Might I suggest filling in red-links at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Law/United_States_federal_judges

Comment: A quick Google search has just enabled me to add numerous references to Joe Moran.  I'll add to the others when I have time.  Like Colin Meads, Peter Canavan or Christy Ring, there are references demonstrating their notability, and they have played at the highest level of their sport (with the Cork GAA|Cork inter-county team) as per

Comment: These are notable athletes playing at the highest highest level of their sport (Ireland's second most popular). They are most certainly notable at a national level. I think  should be revised so that similar, unnecessary nomiations don't arise in the future

Comment: I think it's a great pity that the nominator appears to have misunderstood how  relates to Gaelic games.  The article Gaelic Athletic Association says in its first line that it is an amateur sports association, and a little more reading would have revealed that inter-county competitions are the highest level of competition in GAA sports.  A little further reading would have led the nominator to understand that these amateur sports have a massive following in Ireland, something which will be unfamiliar to those from countries such as the USA or the UK where the most popular sports are played by highly-paid professional teams.   I think that the time is long overdue for a revision of  so that it displays less systemic bias towards the sporting structures of some larger countries. However, that doesn't mean that I will !vote to keep all these articles

Comment: as per  cos played at the top level for his sport, but I see the point about the criteria for notability being stretched.  I decided to Keep because inter-county GAA players, although amateur, are notable at a national level (and sometimes at an international level) and citations exist at this level

Comment: Non-notable, no reliable sources that are individualized to any of these players, they do not meet  exception.  If there are some individual profiles of some of the stars, then they might make the cut.  See athletes like Colt McCoy or Brian Orakpo, who, just for being a college football player, which has an enormous following, are not considered notable under , but their individual coverage met general  notability requirements

Comment: As I read the articles, the team in question plays in the top level of the sport, i.e. division 1 of the National Hurling League, which suggests the team members meet
