Games apparently canceled: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/jan/17/islamic-solidarity-games-cancelled —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 08:06, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, cancelled, but there is chance of it being moved to another host country in 2010. Druryfire (talk) 08:27, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Wikipedia is not for things "having a chance to happen". Blodance (talk) 09:27, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As of now, this event will not occur. It may or may not occur in 2010,'11 or'12, that's WP:CRYSTAL at this point. This has already been moved (and redirected) from Football at the 2009 Islamic Solidarity Games, it needs to be deleted for now; it can easily be recreated when and if the ISG ever gets off the ground again. Given the current climate, I won't hold my breath. Wine Guy Talk 09:32, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete unlikely to happen, and if that should change there's nothing here that can't be re-created in a couple of minutes anyway. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:36, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Postpone decision until the current situation is clarified. It would be silly if the event were confirmed 24 hours or so after Wikipedia had deleted its article. Wikipedia is not supposed to assume that an event won't happened, before a final decision is announced. Aridd (talk) 23:03, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose If it is confirmed then there's no problem with recreating or even undeleting it. But as long as this one is not confirmed, it does not belong to Wikipedia. Blodance (talk) 01:33, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Easy enough to recreate. The creator should consider saving the source text to use if it does come back. References should have been in anyways. 2010 Islamic Solidarity Games should probably be merged into Islamic Solidarity Games as well.Cptnono (talk) 09:06, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete if it's not going ahead. I would vote delete even if it was going ahead until a source is inserted into the article. I have no prejudice to recreation if it is rearranged and a source or sources are added. WFCforLife (talk) 02:25, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The information indicates that the event was cancelled last year. Nfitz (talk) 04:21, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as the article fails WP:CRYSTAL and WP:V. Armbrust ^Talk _Contribs 00:59, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
