 * Userfy - A notable competition, namely Iraq's top football cup tournament, but in this state, not useful. Userfy to allow additional content if not added by end of this AfD. Fenix down (talk) 15:38, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
 * But I think redirect is better, it will be easily restored this article after bracket is announced. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 14:06, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
 * And userify needs an editor willing to do this. You can consider Drafty. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 14:08, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm happy for a redirect if no one is prepared to take it into their userspace. Fenix down (talk) 15:55, 26 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete - not needed. GiantSnowman 15:46, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Iraq FA Cup. In the same way that the 2020 AFC Champions League redirects to the AFC Champions League. (As it is an upcoming tournament that as of yet has no dates/details about it). Hashim-afc (talk) 21:56, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
 * The redirect of 2020 AFC Champions League was created by me and the match schedule of 2020 AFC Champions League was announced in AFC offical website. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 00:07, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Fair enough, I still support a temporary redirect though as we know the tournament will start soon. Hashim-afc (talk) 10:46, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep, the topic is notable per, would not oppose a temporary redirect. Cobyan02069 (talk) 03:46, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Nominator comment: Not sure whether it should be deleted or not, but now I think it should redirect to Iraq FA Cup at least until the bracket is announced. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 10:51, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 09:40, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep it is still ongoing, but it needs to be expanded –  333-blue , 11:16, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Nominator question: Do you have any source about it? Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 14:00, 26 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Note: The Iraq Football Association announced the cancellation of the tournament today. Thus, the page should be deleted. Hashim-afc (talk) 22:44, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
 * We have 2015 Piala Indonesia, should that article be deleted? Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 01:38, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Looking back, we have 2016 Iraqi Super Cup as well which was also cancelled. I guess it doesn't necessarily have to be deleted, especially as there are numerous articles online talking about it's cancellation. Hashim-afc (talk) 18:23, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * You can reconsider your votes after the cancellation was announced. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 02:07, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Actually, I think a redirect to Iraq_FA_Cup is still the best outcome. Although the tournament is cancelled, it is still a plausible search term. Fenix down (talk) 09:13, 29 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Userfy: if it does not exist, then yes, it should be deleted. However, once there are enough secondary sources about the cancellation of this tournament, it should be recreated/kept –  333-blue , 09:03, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
