 * Delete: WP:TOOSOON, still 15 months away and no evidence it will happen (2021 one is cancelled after all). Thus, just WP:CRYSTALBALL Joseph2302 (talk) 09:53, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * delete as a basic operation of the encyclopedia, we typically will put articles about upcoming major events that are almost certain to happen (such as pro bowl, super bowl, etc.) because there is a good amount of third party reliable sources about the planning and preparation of the event. We've normally restricted that move to "the next one" because that makes sense, but having multiple future events typically does not.  There are exceptions such as 2024 Summer Olympics, 2028 Summer Olympics, and 2032 Summer Olympics but these specific events normally have political, economic, and cultural implications far beyond a single game.  I would argue that while the Pro Bowl is notable and cool and fun, it does not warrant a placeholder article beyond the next one.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:46, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
