~~Delete or Merge~~ into Cricket World Cup Citicat 02:13, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or Merge I still am not convinced of the need for this being separate from the main artice, but you're right, it does pass WP:CRYSTAL Citicat 02:04, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Passes WP:CRYSTAL. Event is scheduled, notable, location is known, and is as certain to take place as anything twelve years hence can be. Eludium-q36 10:45, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Still, how is the purpose not served by merging and redirecting to the main article? The sum total of the informatin known is the location, and that is not likely to change for over a decade Citicat 20:18, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Because that (global) article isn't in the relevant English categories, which means it is less likely to be seen by interested readers, or indeed by people who can improve the article. Nathanian 20:45, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Verifiable article. Planning in hand. There will be lots of information than can be added well before a decade is up. At the moment there are lots of redevelopment projects in hand for English cricket grounds, and the possibility of getting a World Cup match will become a factor in how they proceed.

Keep By this definition, we shouldn't have an article on the 2012 Olympics until we absolutely, definitely know it wil happen (which will be on the day it opens). Regan123 21:14, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete WP:CRYSTAL. 13 years is too far away. I think 8 years is the maximum years for an event to happen likely. Tonytypoon 02:02, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There are political reasons why England 2019 is absolutely certain, and I have edited the article to explain these further. Eludium-q36 10:16, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
