Glen Hill[edit]

Non-notable area; not worthy of an article of it's own; no references given for any claims, no other Newry area has it's own topic. Blowdart | ^talk 18:58, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. A minor locality in the city of Newry that has no stand-alone notability. If there's a suitable argument for merge, then that might be a solution too. ^LeaveSleaves _talk 16:23, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete; unsourced, orphan locale that does not show any notability. ww2censor (talk) 04:41, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep Locations are notable. This is more than a location, it is apparently something like a U.S. census area, because census type info is provided. This is way larger, then, than thousands of hamlets and smaller locations in the United States that are kept in wikipedia. Is this an American-centric deletion attack, by the way? If anyone participating in this discussion knew anything about Ireland's census data, that would help. In the absence of such knowledge, let's not tamper with structure put in place by someone, presumably Irish, who knew what they were doing. doncram (talk) 06:07, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your assumption is wrong. What you're talking about, in NI Census terms is probably a ward; that tends to be how these things get broken down; Newry doesn't have individual wards (see [1]). Indeed I've yet to see a mass of UK articles based on wards, generally it's all inside the town article unless there's something turely notable. Oh and please don't assume I'm American; I'm most certainly not, I am someone who knows about Northern Ireland's census data having been born and brought up there/ --Blowdart | ^talk 08:14, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The map on that page does show wards (which are also in the census) but Glen Hill is not one of them; it is probably in Daisy Hill or Drumalane. Also there is no reference provided to verify the census statistics in the article. It does seem to be only a small locality within a town, and does not appear to have any administrative status or notability, but it could be merged into Newry if the content can be verified. —Snigbrook 16:23, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete If it is not a jurisdiction, it needs references to actually show notability. Histories of the area are usually the place to find them. DGG (talk) 01:27, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - A city would be notable, but an area of a city seems to not be notable to me. Res 2216 firestar 02:08, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
