2011 WDF World Cup

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Future event; crystal-balling; nothing in the sections (empty tables). Could be userfied, I suppose until the event actually happensa and something can be sourced and written about it. Pesky ( talk  …stalk!) 13:45, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Given that there have been 17 previous such tournaments, and that this one is to be held this very September, removing the article now is unnecessary. The relevant policy is NOT BURO.  DGG ( talk ) 19:48, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Because it gets coverage before it happens, and also in a few weeks it'll happen anyway, so no sense in deleting an article only to bring it back then.  D r e a m Focus  03:14, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, I think DGG, said it right, this page will be populated as soon as the events unfold. – Phoenix B 1of3 (talk) 17:39, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, many events have pages well before the start of the event, dont see why this is any different. Bradleyspencer1983 (talk) 15:27, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:GNG. Stuartyeates (talk) 10:36, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOT. Warden (talk) 17:49, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's very soon to be filled in, and as notable as any other WDF World Cup. Its near-future status is irrelevant (though a hypothetical WDF 2013 article should not exist yet). If WP:GNG or WP:NOT are supposed to be relevant, let's separate those issues from this discussion about a near-future event, and instead mass-nominate everything in Category:WDF World Cup.

 * Keep - WP:GNG is met, see WDF World Cup. WP:NOT is not violated as this is not a long and sprawling list of statistics and contains tables to enhance the readability. As far as WP:CRYSTAL, I quote: Individual scheduled or expected future events should only be included if the event is notable and almost certain to take place. This event is both.
