Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Speculation about the papal conclave, 2005
as obsolete  ball. Articles about speculation are inherently problematic. The article contains comments such as "A Latin American pope is a strong possibility" to be elected in 2005. I have no doubt that we could find articles from 2005 saying that there was a strong possibility that a pope from Latin America would be elected. However, we know that, in fact, the pope elected was not from Latin America, and the only way we could prove that any Latin Americans were considered strong candidates would be for one of the cardinals to violate the oath of secrecy. So unless and until that happens, there could be no |reliable sources to say that "A Latin American pope was a strong possibility in 2005
