• Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Poetry, History, and Ireland. UtherSRG (talk) 14:59, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete "Little is known" about the person, means there is no sourcing. I can't find anything in Gscholar, Books or Jstor we could use. Oaktree b (talk) 15:03, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete or, failing that, redirect to Ollamh Érenn. If all that can be said about a subject is that they lived, held a title/post/role and then died, it would seem that they do not meet any applicable criteria. The short pieces of text that we have in the article (copied/pasted from the Irish annals) could just as easily be covered in the Ollamh Érenn article. Not seeing the need for a standalone article on one such office/title-holder... Guliolopez (talk) 15:57, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Ollamh Érenn: as an WP:ATD. There is simply no coverage of this person at all, save for extremely passing mentions in the four medieval annals. Curbon7 (talk) 21:30, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or merge (to Ollamh Érenn). Note that there are multiple possible spellings of both Beathaidh and Ainmire. Srnec (talk) 11:22, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete due to lack of online sources contemporary to the subject. Better yet, due to lack of sources altogether. Note: One would advise caution about Merging text unsupported by sources, since it is customary in these parts to defenestrate said texts rather than moving them about. But a Redirect cannot be excluded. -The Gnome (talk) 20:51, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  lack of online sources contemporary to the subject. The subject died long before the internet. All the contemporary sources cited in the article are available online. Just click through to the articles. Srnec (talk) 20:07, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge - seems like a worthwhile section on a different page, if one can be agreed. It's not inconceivable that more could be found if one looked in offline archives and libraries. As/when someone does that, maybe there would be enough to satisfy the notability criteria. JMWt (talk) 07:59, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete One of the lines in the article is "Little is known of his life, other than his obituary" so via WP:NOTMEMORIAL delete.Questions? four OLIfanofmrtennant (she/her) 16:22, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
