They were not in any way appearing to be promotional. I had removed the picture with the sponsor presenting the jersey incase they could be confused for beimg promotional. The picture showing clubhouse ballwall and pitches are relevant to details about clubs facilities. The oictures of jerseys were to putline that they have 2 different sets of jerseys that they wear, (the footballers wearing mainly blue and hurlers wearimg mainly white) Thw pictures were blurred slightly to maimtain the privacy of the people in it incase they did not want their face shown.

You are clearly here to promote your (?) local GAA club. The Google maps links do not give any information about the field being a former Mountmellick GAA playing field, so they are plain misleading. Most of the article is unsourced. There is no need to add multiple times that it is a dual club, as it already states in the lead that they play football and hurling. The pictures are unsharp (1 picture) or have no educational value (2 pictures). Beside that, your edit summaries are often completely incorrect or plain false to hide your Conflict of Interest.

yes you can make an argument for removing the past grounds as they could be misleading but there is no valid reason for removing the table showing the different managers they have had for hurling and football Budisgood (talk) 09:51, 10 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

could you please explain further how you believe it to be vandalism to add a managers section and cite sources for each manager to prove that it is true Budisgood (talk) 21:32, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
What about the text you removed when adding the non-notable player? By the way, the managers are just as non-notable, as they have no article on Wikipedia. The Banner talk 21:45, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Could you correct me if im wrong but i did not remove any text when i added Notable player i added the player and citation Budisgood (talk) 22:09, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
And you removed the text stating that a notable person should have its own Wikipedia article in this edit. The Banner talk 22:29, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Ok to undo that edit was understandable but what is wrong with the managers section when they have sources cited Budisgood (talk) 22:32, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
The existence of sources does not make a manager automatically notable. Especially not at a club not playing at senior level. The Banner talk 23:25, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
yes a manager that is also an u20 county manager is not a Notable manager, or a manager that captained team to senior promotion, or a manager that is a former county player if thats not a notable manager I would like to know what you think a Notable manager is Budisgood (talk) 23:31, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Being active on the highest level helps. Intercounty helps too. Multiple independent sources helps. Writing the article helps for sure. The Banner talk 23:40, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Beside that, it is never a good idea to write about a subject where you have an emotional relation with. You will not see me write something substantial about my local GAA club. The Banner talk 23:40, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
but i did not write anything in managers that was biased it was a list of different managers amd years they were managers just plain facts not any biased writing going on a tangent about being a great club or anything just plain facts with sources cited Budisgood (talk) 23:46, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Your writing history shows your close relationship with the subject. The Banner talk 08:37, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
But there is no bias in creating a table with managers names and years they were manager Budisgood (talk) 12:51, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
