Disputed draftification by copy and paste move. WP:TOOSOON, oft declined WP:AFC draft. Unreferenced - or one reference that is not particularly useful. Sensible outcome Draftify 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 11:48, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify Can be recreated when the event starts. QuicoleJR (talk) 13:58, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Administrative note there is already a draft written by the same author, so if "draftify" is the outcome, this article can (should?) just be deleted, leaving the extant draft. (please ping on reply) Primefac (talk) 07:16, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~ Several hits on a Google search show details about its date, time, etc and it’s reasonable to believe much more WP:SIGCOV will be available once it gets underway. It is certainly not WP:TOOSOON because the event starts in LESS THAN TWO WEEKS. (it is possible this AFD will still be open when the tournament starts). Per WP:CRYSTAL, an article on a future event is appropriate if the event is notable and almost certain to take place. (Y based coverage already present such as schedule announcements) and if the subject matter [is] of sufficiently wide interest that it would merit an article if the event had already occurred. (Y based on articles of previous editions of this tournament). Frank Anchor 17:15, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Changed to speedy keep as the tournament started on 11 April and the first round has been completed. Therefore any concerns of being too soon are now moot. Already passes WP:N per my above argument. Frank Anchor 21:47, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - leave draft in draftspace. If and when there is enough WP:SIGCOV, the article can be moved to mainspace. However, due to the behavior of the article creator, there should be a caveat that it must go through AfC.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 18:52, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
