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
