Delete per WP:TOOSOON. It's still too early for this article to exist. Created by the same user who created Vietnam at the 2026 Asian Games which I also nominated for deletion. CycloneYoris talk! 00:00, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify per Frank. S5A-0043Talk 08:39, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Struck above after remembering the 6 month rule for draftspace. Delete. S5A-0043Talk 14:14, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete way WP:TOOSOON. In 6 months time, it will still be too soon, and so I object to draftifying this as draftspace is not an indefinite holding area. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:54, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree strongly. It is very reasonable to have some level of information about a country's participation in international competition two years ahead of time. Therefore, drafspace would be the exact opposite of
an indefinite holding area
If this proves not to be the case, the draft can easily be deleted in October 2024. Frank Anchor 15:25, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- For most events like this, the qualifying tournaments will be at most a year before the event i.e. in 2025. Unless there is evidence that there are 2026 Asian Games qualifiers this year, and so we'll know some qualified Singaporean competitors in 6 months time, then draftspace is not needed.

- Delete. Utterly non-encyclopedic. The current entry contains nothing of value. The desire to create articles way ahead of time needs to be stamped out. It's an unhealthy "I was here first" culture which does not add value to Wikipedia. Geschichte (talk) 08:43, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Draftify: per all above.

- Comment from nominator: I strongly oppose draftifying, since it will still be TOOSOON in 6 months time, as Joseph2302 states. Deletion is definitely preferrable. CycloneYoris talk! 21:18, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting, opinion divided between editors advocating Draftification and those arguing for Deletion. This might come down to No consensus.

- Comment: I contend that "Draftify per TOOSOON" does not hold water in that it will still be too soon for 12–15 more months. There is nothing worth retaining in that the article contains no information other than a circular definition of the article title: "Singapore at the 2026 Asian Games means that Singapore will compete at the 2026 Asian Games".

- Draftify, as a preferable WP:ATD. If there isn't information added to the article in 6 months time, it can easily and with little effort be deleted. Esolo5002 (talk) 02:14, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Draftifying would be completely pointless, since there isn't any valuable content to preserve. Better to delete now than later. CycloneYoris talk! 03:59, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: This is a case of WP:TOOSOON and this will also be the case in the near future, so no need for draftification. Let'srun (talk) 02:57, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- delete for Pete's sake. It's a one sentence article which will outdated if they do compete, and false if they don't. There is nothing here to save for a draft, unless you think it's too much trouble to recreate an infobox. It isn't. Mangoe (talk) 03:29, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
