The result was delete. The notability issues haven't been addressed by the one "keep" opinion.  Sandstein  15:47, 1 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Once-off show sourced only to the network's website. No indication of notability. Previously closed as NPASR after 1 month due to lack of participation. Greykit (talk) 20:58, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. I couldn't really find anything to show that this was that notable of a show. If there was a good redirect target I'd argue for a redirect, but there's nothing at Taoiseach to redirect to nor is there a list page for shows broadcast by RTÉ One.

• Keep - not sure why Irish programmes keep on being nominated, but this was on the main Irish TV channel and ran to several shows too. -MacRùsgail (talk) 18:17, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• It is the notability that is in question here, not the nationality. Saying this was on TV and "ran to several shows", while not providing evidence of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" is nothing to do with notability as understood by Wikipedia. --Greykit (talk) 18:34, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Unfortunately just being on television isn't enough to pass notability guidelines, not anymore at least- I know that years ago this would have been enough but guidelines have been tightened over the years. I think that part of the reason that non-American shows tend to get nominated is because the coverage tends to be far lighter. I'm trying to find a nice way to say that American shows tend to be overly obnoxious in plastering themselves all over the news and that us Americans reward them for it, but that's kind of the best way I can describe the situation. I have no problem with you userfying the data, if you're interested in doing that. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:00, 24 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
