Fails WP:BIO. Almost all the sources provided are not about McCormack and fail WP:SIGCOV. Sources 9 and 11 are primary. LibStar ( talk) 04:23, 23 May 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Fails WP:NBIO and WP:GNG. All the sources in the article are trivial passing mentions and/or associated with the subject. A search for sources outside the article (for example in newspapers in Northern Ireland [1] [2] or Ireland [3] [4]) return either nothing, false positives or similar passing mentions. It is also, frankly, hard to ignore the WP:COI/ WP:SPA overtones in the articles creation and the WP:PROMO tone in the content. Guliolopez ( talk) 11:14, 23 May 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: Agreed with those above. The article is largely uncited, with no coverage of McCormack as an individual. Thus, it doesn't pass WP:GNG as there is no SIGCOV. Schminnte ( talk contribs) 12:18, 23 May 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment It does seem a vanity article created by a single purpose editor. LibStar ( talk) 07:24, 24 May 2023 (UTC) reply
