• Keep - decent Irish coverage available - [https://www.rte.ie/sport/darts/2014/0106/496288-meaney-edged-out-at-lakeside/ RTÉ] (a little routine but still a headline in a national broadcaster's site indicating national prominence), [https://kclr96fm.com/kilkenny-man-next-round-bdo-world-darts-championship/ KCLR] (similar to before but not quite as notable as RTÉ), a circa 1k word piece entirely about Meaney and his career in [https://www.proquest.com/docview/2339399107?accountid=196403&sourcetype=Newspapers The Kildare Nationalist] and another piece of coverage in [https://www.proquest.com/docview/1492363526?accountid=196403&sourcetype=Newspapers The Nationalist] (Carlow version so separate from the prior newspaper). Of these the Kildare Nationalist piece is strongest and combined the sources indicate regional notability, imv. ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 16:46, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
• :The Kildaire Nationalist and Nationalist pieces you’ve linked seem to be behind an institution wall, so I can’t see what’s in them. JamesVilla44 (talk) 16:25, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

• Keep: Sources in the first comment from Ireland are enough for notability. Oaktree b (talk) 19:19, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
• Delete: rte and kclr are both routine match reports and do not provide sigcov of Meaney. The other two sources contain little info directly about Meaney and are mostly quotes. Dougal18 (talk) 16:02, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
• Delete Unremarkable career with no notable independent coverage outside of darts-related sites. 💥Casualty ^{• Hop along. •} 06:44, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
