Does this satisfy WP:NGEO? It seems to be defined within the page as the area of County Meath within the Louth (Dáil constituency). That wouldn't in itself satisfy notability (aside from the fact that this area is set to be reduced to the Drogheda suburbs part only), as that's a common feature of many counties. It does have a profile on the Meath County Council website. A Google search gives some results, such as the Protect East Meath lobby group, and East Meath United. However, contrast that with a search for West Cork, with 6,360,000 results, including newspaper coverage. The sources on the page or elsewhere don't suggest to me that East Meath is a generally notable distinction within the county, as opposed to what coverage might be given in Drogheda, Laytown–Bettystown–Mornington–Donacarney, or County Meath.

• Delete - sorry I did not see the AfD sooner, and for that matter, that I did not catch this article. This is largely an "invented topic" and the sources do not support it as a separate entity. East Meath historically was largely what is now called County Meath, and this other definition requires OR. The idea could be briefly discussed in the Co. Meath article, but I'd question even that.
