2032 Summer Olympics (talk|edit|history|logs|links|watch) (XfD|restore)

There is now (finally) enough specific information so that an article is appropriate. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:50, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Move draft to mainspace two common objections in the previous AfDs were that there was no concrete information about the games, only vague expressions of interest by some cities/countries, and that the 2028 games hadn't been awarded yet. Neither of those is the case any more: this is now the next games which hasn't been awarded and Draft:2032 Summer Olympics documents that there are some actual announced bids as opposed to expressions of interest. That's easily enough to justify reopening the issue. Hut 8.5 21:57, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • I should add that the current salting expires in 2027. That's far too late as the games will likely be awarded several years earlier. Hut 8.5 19:14, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move draft to mainspace as reviewer. There is now enough information for a separate article. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:01, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to mainspace per above. As I explained on the draft page, the WP:TOOSOON concerns are no longer valid, and notability is not and never was an issue. I don't even understand why we need to wait seven days for what's likely to be an overwhelming consensus to move it. Smartyllama (talk) 13:24, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to mainspace per above. Reliable sources added that bolster case for move. Bkissin (talk) 17:12, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Player has now played in a fully professional game, as documented by a reliable source. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:55, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Clearly notable now. Normally I would just accept the draft, but he's been deleted too much and the page is protected. Should just be an easy procedural unsalt/accept draft, not sure why we're all the way at DRV. SportingFlyer talk 20:33, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
User:SportingFlyer - I tried to accept it. I can't override the salting without an admin. That is why we are at DRV. Robert McClenon (talk) 21:15, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No, we're at DRV because you failed to follow the instructions, which say, Discuss the matter with the closing administrator and try to resolve it with him or her first. Had you done so, I would have almost certainly just unsalted the mainspace title. Which I have now done. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:33, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Thank you, User:RoySmith, and I apologize for the mistake. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:02, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
We can close this as moot. SportingFlyer talk 05:01, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
