Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United States presidential election, 2024
I read  as specifically permitting articles of this very type. '''First''' - Criterion #1 reminds us that ''"Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place."'' The 2024 U.S. presidential election ''could'' be canceled, but the circumstances under which that would occur is a situation of a catastrophic exigency (this is 2024 we're talking about, not 3016). U.S. presidential elections are inherently notable as they are the method for selection of the control official for the world's largest nuclear arsenal, which is clearly significant. Ergo, the two provisions of criterion 1 (notability and certainty) are met. '''Second''' - CRYSTAL reminds us that 2024 Summer Olympics is a permitted article. The 2024 Olympics article does not even have a location or date scheduled, in contrast to 2024 U.S. Presidential election which has both a location and date. If 2024 Summer Olympics is absolutely permitted by CRYSTAL, how can 2024 U.S. presidential election not be
