Contested PROD. Concern was "Given that there isn't even an article about the 2026 FIFA World Cup, let alone 2030, it seems a bit daft to have an article about a rumoured 2030 bid." by Jmorrison230582. The PROD was removed with no reason given. Argyle 4 Life^talk 19:49, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - per original PROD rationale, nothing but rumours and hearsay - which has no place on Wikipedia. Giant Snowman 21:21, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Delete Bad grammar, as well as this bid not being offical. Intoronto1125 (talk) 13:07, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and tell ASEAN that they are wasting their time, as to AFC location will be eligible for the two editions after 2022. Kevin McE (talk) 19:41, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please consider There are also article Argentina-Uruguay 2030 World Cup bid in Wikipedia (please search by yourself in Google). Now, they have officially bid, but it means several years after the article firstly appear in Wikipedia at 2007. ASEAN will bid after ASEAN Summit on May 2011. I think please ASEAN and Argentina-Uruguay bid sportively. There are many reasons FIFA choose the host and I think not only for centennial purposes. The host of Centennial Olympic Games of 1996 was not Greece (one of the worst economics country in Europe right now). So, every possibilities is possible. Might be China want to bid also. The viewers of football games in China are the biggest right now and some of European matches have played (and plan) at around noon to accomodate China's prime time viewers.Gsarwa (talk) 19:15, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If they do so bid at that time, a request could be made to desalt the article: until then, it is WP:CRYSTAL. But not "every possibilities is possible": after South Africa 2010, CAF teams couldn't apply for 2014 or 2018; due to Brazil 2014, CONMEBOL teams could'nt apply for 2018 or 2022; Russia 2018 disqualifies all UEFA members for 2022 and 2026, and Qatar 2022 will preclude AFC bids for 2026 and 2030.
