Page was recently moved to mainspace despite the AfC comments. I think that this is still WP:TOOSOON, so it should not have an article yet, seeing that even the 2030 Winter Olympics does not yet have an official host city. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 16:34, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Delete - Delete per nom. Tw294 (talk) 16:57, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Delete or Draftify per nom. Also, based on the prior deletion request, could we maybe run a CheckUser to make sure it is not the same account trying to push this towards creation? I've noticed a blocked [IP] contributed a lot to this article. I suspect there is some correlation between the author and the IP and therefore could be evading a block. Could possibly go to speedy per G5. Conyo14 (talk) 18:57, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

- Move to Bids for the 2034 Winter Olympics and redirect to that title, as is currently done for 2036 Summer Olympics. There is already some confirmed interest in bidding for these Games, though it is way, way WP:TOOSOON to have an article on the games themselves. Frank Anchor 20:42, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Move to Bids for the 2034 Winter Olympics per consensus established at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2036 Winter Olympics.--OlympicsFan2034 (talk) 22:31, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- I believe you meant Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2036 Summer Olympics. Frank Anchor 23:17, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Move The argument for deletion, in the nom, is a mix of personal objection on the theoretical basis that events to happen sooner aren't fully confirmed, and invoking WP:TOOSOON even though that largely (if not entirely) focuses on things that have already happened and we can't yet tell if it will have lasting notability - the opposite of the situation here (future event which, if it happens, definitely will). Could just say close this per no actual reason being given to delete.
But since it's been brought up, let's evaluate it. The subject has extensive coverage in sources, and the article includes good use of them, so except for bureaucratic reasons (if it was wholesale copyvio/zero source-text integrity, neither of which appear to be the case) there isn't a policy reason to delete. However, the focus of those sources, while describing the event, is of course on the bidding at this point in time. So I agree with the other users that a move to Bids for the 2034 Winter Olympics, also matching precedent, is the solution here. Kingsif (talk) 12:44, 27 February 2024 (UTC) - Move In the same vein, 2030 Winter Olympics should also be moved to Bids for the 2030 Winter Olympics. I think both were just created incorrectly as the games pages instead of the bid pages. The actual page 2034 Winter Olympics isn't usually created until it is awarded (which is happening in just 5 months).Chris1834 Talk 14:19, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
- Move as suggested. As an article about the bidding process, it is actually well-sourced. Bearian (talk) 16:13, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
- Move as per others. It's an article on proposed bids for the games, and so should be moved to that name. Not too soon for an article on the ongoing bidding process. Would also support similar move for 2030 Winter Olympics. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:52, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
