2022–23 Serie B

Article about the upcoming season of the second-tier Italian association football league. This article is too soon and does not contain enough information to satisfy general notability or any version of football notability. There are only two references, neither of which contains any information about secondary coverage of the league, and only one of which displays any information:

This article was moved from article space to draft space by User:Eagleash with the edit summary: Not ready for mainspace WP:TOOSOON; insufficient information to remain as a published encyclopedia entry, which was correct at the time and is still correct. However, it was tweaked, and then moved back to article space by the originator with the edit summary "Ready", which was incorrect. It is not ready. It does not say anything encyclopedic except that the league exists, and there is already a parent article that says that.

The proper place for this page is either draft space, user space, or a bit bucket until the season starts, but another unilateral move to draft space would be move-warring. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:44, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep. It's typical for major leagues to create such articles for the following season as the previous season ends, and it becomes clear who has qualified for next season. 2022–23 Serie A was created 6 weeks ago. Another second tier league that also has been created is 2022–23 EFL Championship. If the article was deleted, it would be recreated shortly. If it isn't good enough, then WP:ATD applies, which says editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page. Though to me, the article looks typical enough for this stage in the season. Nfitz (talk) 15:59, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep What's the point in deleting a high priority article. This is a valid article, valid place holder and the Italian league easily passes GNG. Govvy (talk) 19:37, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep It's clearly a notable league that has season articles and more references will be added as it progresses. I also don't believe it is WP:TOOSOON.— NZFC  (talk) (cont)  09:35, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep If this was six months ago, when literally nothing was known, I might have been sympathetic. However, at this stage there doesn't seem to be any purpose in deleting it, as it would simply be recreated within a few weeks; at least one promotion to the division for this season has been confirmed already.

 * Keep. Pointless to delete this, and there are certainly enough sources on the upcoming season at this point to write an article about it.-- Mvqr (talk) 11:30, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep as above. GiantSnowman 18:19, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep current season is almost over. Rylesbourne (talk) 20:19, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep as per comments above. Please note three out of four teams promoted to it from Serie C have already been confirmed, as the regular season for the latter has finalized today. --Angelo (talk) 22:36, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
 * keep WP:TOOSOON not apply here. 2021-22 will be over soon and some promotion and relegation is sure Hhkohh (talk) 00:13, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
