Notability of this event not evident from references. Lacks significant coverage in 3rd party sources. RadioFan (talk) 02:58, 5 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. A notable film festival. The article is already sourced (The Irish Times: "the Fleadh has steadily developed into the prime spot for unveiling domestic product" [1]) and a HighBeam search alone reveals more than 300 additional potential sources.

Keep with a trout to the nominator, who first proposed it for deletion and then chose to send it to AFD after Arxiloxos added sources showing the topic as notable.[4] Notability is established through topic sources being available and NOT through their use in an article. This was proven through the pre-AFD added sources, which were seemingly ignored, [5][6] and through multiple others. Kudos to Arxiloxos. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 10:00, 5 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
