The result was delete. I can't make sense of Bearian's statement, and it is clear that, contra Shhhhwwww!!, the fact that elections are notable doees not mean that any list that contains them is also notable.  Sandstein  18:57, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

"It isn't normal to have future "XXX in the country" articles. At most it has a single link to the FIBA basketball WC, which is scheduled. If we allow this one, where does it end? Are we going to make a "2027 in North Korea" too? It's all WP:CRYSTAL."

Note that one !voter in the previous discussion suggested that this article might have more of a mandate, but it really doesn't. It's still just crystal balling what the election will be, we don't actually know that these will be the incumbents in that next election. And anyway, the place for listing those incumbents is 2022 Philippine presidential election, not here. It's just WP:TOO SOON for this article. 2021? sure, but we don't need more than a year in advance. —  Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) (click me!)    08:31, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NOTCRYSTAL. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 22:59, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - The article already satisfies WP:Notability with two, not one, elections scheduled. Future "x-year in country" articles already has a precedent in 2022 in Canada. Shhhhwwww!! (talk) 23:26, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
 * , sources about those elections don't establish notability for the year. That's not how WP:N works. In any case, this is more of a list article, so the relevant article would be WP:LISTN. In any case the notability guidelines don't really apply to articles like this one, about future years. Obviously this will be necessary topic, at some point, but currently it is just a bunch of predictions and scheduled stuff that should happen. (take the recent elections in Britain for example, you can't always predict these things in advance, and to say that the election definitely will happen is WP:CRYSTAL). 2022 in Canada should also not exist, thank's for bringing it to my attention, I'll AfD that one next. —  Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) (click me!)    23:55, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Article is simply WP:TOOSOON. A couple of sources re: election aren't good enough for the article to be kept. SUPER ASTIG 08:44, 29 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: I have hidden the empty sections (for obvious reasons) and the list of incumbents (this is a prediction, not definitively known). Mind  matrix  13:35, 29 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per my comment: "2022, which has national elections and many other fairly certain events", see Articles_for_deletion/2023_in_the_Philippines. Bearian (talk) 22:22, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
