[edit] 2012 presidential election

2012 presidential election (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Nom per WP:CRYSTAL, and bearing in mind Wikipedia:There is no deadline. When the time is right, we can have an article properly titled United States presidential election, 2012 AlasdairGreen27 (talk) 00:00, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete. The only content is an electoral vote template, but that will change due to redistricting after the 2010 census. The current election is too much of a wild card for anyone to be positioning themselves for a '12 run. --Dhartung | Talk 00:09, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete There is no information on here?... delete it. Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 00:18, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Strong delete per WP:CRYSTAL. Dylan (talk) 00:31, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete As Dhartung points out, even the electoral vote information is going to change by 2012. Somehow, I get the feeling that someone will be planning their campaign on the first Wednesday of this November. Mandsford (talk) 04:25, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete - no valid information whatsoever. - fchd (talk) 09:07, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. I don't even know that you could call this WP:CRYSTAL--it's not predicting anything other than that electoral votes will still be the same in 2012. This is a placeholder article it seems and we don't really need a placeholder for four years. Redfarmer (talk) 12:37, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete as having no information. A very nice and earnest newbie started a new entry that's not even a stub. Try in another 11 months. Sorry. Bearian'sBooties (talk) 18:22, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete as premature. Let's get the 2008 election over with first, shall we? This ain't the Olympics where things are set in stone years in advance. Considering the way the US electoral system works, the preparations for the 2012 election will likely begin in December 2008 or January 2009, so the article can be recreated then. 23skidoo (talk) 00:38, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep but re-title it United States presidential election, 2012 and rapidly start entering information to get it to an appropriate length.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolfpackfan72 (talk • contribs)
