What's this article about? A book? Or what? --SandyDancer 23:13, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

I think the article makes it very clear what it is about, did you read it?--Couter-revolutionary 02:14, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes. And no, it doesn't make it clear what it is about. Is it a book? A documentary? A poem? A song? You need to make that clear - and even then I are you sure this is notable enough for an article? --SandyDancer 10:39, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Firstly I think it is very clear what it is about, however, I agree that there is no need for this article. I did not write it, alas.--Couter-revolutionary 10:53, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Just how is it clear? Take another look at the article - pretty much all it says is "The Troubles in Tynan recounts incidents during, and the effects of, The Troubles in Tynan, County Armagh, Northern Ireland" - which makes me suspect it is a book, but how can anyone be sure? I think this is a speedy delete candidate. --SandyDancer 11:04, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Gosh, sorry, I thought you were simply being facetious; I didn't expect anyone to fail to see that it is referring to the effects of The troubles of Northern Ireland, specifically their effect on the town of Tynan, Co. Armagh.--Couter-revolutionary 11:35, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

So in other words this article is just supposed to be an entry about how "the Troubles" played out in Tynan? And that's it? No justification for its existence then. The information contained is covered elsewhere, in the Sir James Stronge, 9th Baronet and Norman Stronge articles. I will nominate for deletion. --SandyDancer 12:01, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • I've already agreed there is no need for its existence, yes.--Couter-revolutionary 12:04, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Good. Perhaps you can indicate that in the AFD discussion. --SandyDancer 12:05, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
