Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2029 European Parliament election


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Draftify‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__. On the delete side, TOOSOON is an essay and not strictly policy; it covers some cases where articles should be deleted, but leaves a grey area. On the keep side, the FUTURE policy explicitly talks about elections, but notes that they must meet the notability criteria. The happy medium, and standard practice, is to draftify until notability is established. UtherSRG (talk) 16:02, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

2029 European Parliament election

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Per WP:TOOSOON; the 2024 European Parliament election hasn't happened yet and we almost never would have articles for future elections except the next election (e.g we have articles such as 2024 United States presidential election and Next Australian federal election but not one for the 2028 United States presidential election just yet). When the next EU Parliament election is over, recreate this article. QLDer in NSW (talk) 11:32, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep - Per WP:FUTURE, 'Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place.' Future elections are explicitly called out as good subjects for articles. The Institut Jacques Delors information clears any hurdle for RS and specific notability, and the churn about the German changes to election law clears GNG.

 * Last is correct about the criteria that applies, rather than WP:OtherStuffDoesn'tExist. I created the article because I thought that wp:nevent is fulfilled at this time, and coverage can only increase in the future. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  17:14, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per WP:TOOSOON, 2024 hasn't happened yet, no need for this. Any details should be in main article - Elections to the European Parliament. Spleodrach (talk) 08:02, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, and the article can be recreated as the time comes. As it stands, it doesn't really need to exist yet. Fork99 (talk) 11:25, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Actually upon further reading, can any of the Institut Jacque Delors 2023 study information be merged into the 2024 election article? Regarding the 2023 German parliament law, has this been written about anywhere else on Wikipedia? Changed my stance to Keep for now if this information can't be merged elsewhere.

 * Draftify, as per standard practice on elections which is that they should not be moved to mainspace until the previous election cycle is completed. Devonian Wombat (talk) 14:40, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete or drafity. WP:FUTURE only supports keeping it if it is notable e. The think tank piece only has "2029" in it three times and twice lumped together with another election. Significant coverage? I think no.
 * Will switch to keep if anyone shows multiple reliable sources with significant coverage that are not from a think tank. My searches didn't find as much. I don't think the discussion about rules that would then impact this election (and every other one also) are the same as significant coverage of the election itself.
