Abstract: Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and suppose that $winW$ is fully commutative (in the sense of Stembridge) and has a reduced expression beginning (respectively, ending) with $sinS$. If there exists $tinS$ such that $s$ and $t$ do not commute and $tw$ (respectively, $wt$) is no longer fully commutative, we say that $w$ is left (respectively, right) weak star reducible by $s$ with respect to $t$. In this paper, we classify the fully commutative elements in Coxeter groups of types $B$ and affine $C$ that are irreducible under weak star reductions. In a sequel to this paper, the classification of the weak star irreducible elements in a Coxeter system of type affine $C$ will provide the groundwork for inductive arguments used to prove the faithfulness of a generalized Temperley--Lieb algebra of type affine $C$ by a particular diagram algebra.
