Talk:Toscaireacht

Hangon thoughts

I have started this new page on a red link from Saoi, which supported my thought that Toscaireacht was notable. Aosdána is not "a club", as suggested on my Talk page, but a learned body of Irish artists across all creative disciplines who have created a significant body of work, and it can be compared to the Royal Academy. If this page ought to be speedily deleted, then perhaps the same arguments may apply to Saoi, who are senior members of Aosdána, but that also seems to me to be a notable subject. Perhaps no separate article for Toscaireacht is needed, and in that case I would suggest a merge to Aosdána would be more constructive, with a redirect to Aosdána.

I agree - this ought to be merged with Aosdána. It does not seem notable in itself. --Rbreen (talk) 21:33, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Well, I can't say I mind that, but as requested by Morbidthoughts at my Talk page I've added several "third-party references about Toscaireacht in the article to demonstrate its significance or importance", with the extra info they brought in. Shall I leave it for someone else to do the merge? Strawless (talk) 22:37, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

I've merged it myself. I think you were right. Strawless (talk) 22:46, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
