2023 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships

This article is written in the past tense about the future, which violates Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and so violates verifiability. It has already been to draft space once and moved back to article space, so should not be unilaterally draftified again.

 * Keep, to retain the work which has been put in to this article. I have modified it to "is scheduled ...", the wording used in 2024 Summer Olympics. It can be updated back to "was" in 8 months' time. Pam  D  08:28, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Draftification would also retain the work. There is no need/info for an article to exist at this stage. Star   Mississippi  13:41, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete: Obviously not ready. WP:TOOSOON Can be undeleted when ready in order to recover the work put in. Could Draftify 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 11:42, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Move to draftspace as way WP:TOOSOON for an article, as it's 7 months until the event. Drafting will keep the article history, and it can be moved back when there's more information and sources in 6-7 months time. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:23, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep WP:CRYSTAL allows for articles to be created for future events if they are notable and almost certain to take place, which is true for this event. Also, it has already received significant coverage from the announcement of the venue and schedule as shown here and here (the latter is already in the article).

 * Keep I agree that CRYSTAL clearly allows this, especially given the notability and proximity of the event. The article just needs improvement. QuintinK (talk) 23:57, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep — The event has already been announced, with details (perhaps too many details in the article, but we can edit those down) White 720 (talk) 18:24, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
