Poorly sourced. The name is rather Margaret Leacy. Xx236 (talk) 08:48, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Input sought on a possible big cleanup of a widespread minor issue: breaches of MOS:IMOS COUNTIES. This relates to all 32 traditional counties of Ireland, including the six counties of Northern Ireland.

The discussion is at WT:WikiProject Ireland#IMOS COUNTIES cleanup, where your input will be welcome. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:27, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

At present Camogie is rated as Mid-importance on the project's scale, while Ladies' Gaelic football is rated as Low-importance on the project's scale.

I think it's obvious enough they both should be rated as top-importance as I think they are both "a must-have for a print encyclopedia". Boardwalk.Koi (talk) 18:02, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I concur 100%. A "mid" rating might just about be justifiable (for either) in the context of WikiProject Ireland. But relative to this project (WikiProject Gaelic games) both are and should clearly be rated as "high" importance. The current rating, for Ladies' Gaelic football in particular, looks to have been an honest mistake/error along the way. If you changed either/both to "high", I can't imagine who would object (and what reasonable basis there could be for an objection). Guliolopez (talk) 20:19, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Guliolopez, thanks for your reply. I agree that there'd likely be no objections to a "high" importance rating for this project, but I think both should be given a "top" importance rating, in line with both the hurling and gaelic football pages.

I thought it prudent to seek a consensus before making any changes. Boardwalk.Koi (talk) 22:15, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya @Boardwalk.Koi. Apologies. I read your note too quickly and misread/misunderstood your point. Or didn't pay enough attention to the difference between "high" and "top". In any event, I agree that Camogie and Ladies' Gaelic football are just as "important" (and in some cases perhaps more "important") than the other members of the "Top-importance Gaelic games" ranked/categorised articles. And, at least, cannot support a situation where individual sportspeople or venues are considered "top" importance, while an entire macro-level topic (like Camogie) is classified as lower/lesser. Definitely Camogie (and probably also Ladies' Gaelic football) should likely be re-ranked to the "top" Guliolopez (talk) 16:39, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Grand I've made those rating changes now. Boardwalk.Koi (talk) 16:58, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Great. FYI. I also re-rated two articles - as I do not see how either could possibly be considered as meeting the top-level criteria. (Duggan Park is "top", while Pearse/Semple/Breffni/Gaelic Grounds/Casement/etc are as much as two "rankings" lower in importance? Nope...) Guliolopez (talk) 17:08, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It would be a good idea. I have seen an article being shot down because there was not enough notability for the men's hurling and football teams (true), completely ignoring three county titles in a row (sourced) for the camogie-ladies. The Banner talk 17:20, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I agree the ratings on those two articles were too high. Boardwalk.Koi (talk) 18:45, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The List of All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship winners and List of All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship finals articles are very similar. I think either one of them should be deleted or both articles be merged. (78.19.48.239 (talk) 22:58, 24 March 2024 (UTC))[reply]
