 * Merge to 2022 Asia Rugby Championship Parent article isn't particularly long here, and a merge of some of the details and sourcing to the parent article in my opinion would be better than deletion as these matches did occur. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 08:51, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

 * First, I want to explain the citation of Facebook posts. The official governing body of this competition, Asia Rugby, does not always write a news article including enough detail to be cited. I could not find a better source for the competition from the official governing body. Of course, I know very well that Wikipedia needs a secondary source, but adding an original source would not be harmful. Regpath (talk) 09:40, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Secondly, I don't think this article should be deleted. Though there are not many citations of secondary sources in this article's current status, there are plenty much news articles mentioning the competition. I will add them. Regpath (talk) 09:51, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I agree that this article and 2022 Asia Rugby Championship are not very long, so merging that may be a nice alternative. But the articles for these competitions have existed as separate articles from the 2008 edition. If we merge these two articles, then it is not consistent and may confuse readers.
