The following discussion is closed and will soon be archived: outcome was: merged/redirected

While I partially agree with the rationale behind the recent PROD (that this subject possibly doesn't have independent notability), I don't agree that summary/procedural deletion is necessarily appropriate. At least an AfD discussion is needed. As an WP:ATD-R, however, I think the thing to do is merge a few sentences into the Sport Northern Ireland (Sport NI) article. And redirect this title to the "facilities" section there. I propose this because, to my understanding (and per the proposed target article), the subject of THIS article (the "institute") is effectively one of several "facilities" of the (parent?) org. Certainly several sources, including the IFA, refer to the subject as "the Sport NI 'Sports Institute for Northern Ireland'". And, since 2016, the entity's website/domain has simply redirected to the this "Sports Institute" page on the Sport NI website. Indicating that it is managed by (or otherwise subordinate to) the public body for the development of sport in NI. If anyone feels deletion is the way to go (rather than redirection) then happy to discuss at AfD. But, to my mind, a merge/redirect is probably the way to go here. (TLDR: The website of this entity now simply redirects to be a sub-set of its parent org. I wonder if we should just do the same. Redirect. And treat as a sub-set of parent org....)

  Resolved. OK. As a week or so has passed, and as I haven't heard any other thoughts, I've gone ahead with the merge and redirect. Guliolopez (talk) 11:34, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
