[edit] 2099

Too far in the future to put any relevant events, all events currently documented there are fiction or anniversaries and it is the most distant year to have a page of its own, the next being 2065. I suggest delete and redirect to 2090s. Philip Stevens 05:57, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, verging on Crystal Ball. Doesn't follow the same format of all other years, apparently because there is no information to fill the subheadings that all other notable years do. Daniel.Bryant 06:21, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Considering that many future years have their own page at the moment (2132, 2207, ..., 2301) it would seem odd to have an empty hole at 2099. However, WP:WINI states that Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and doesn't require an article about any future year with speculation as to what may or may not occur in that year. It just seems there's a bit of a precident to keep those dates at least within the next hundred years. --Brad Beattie ^(talk) 06:47, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. I just noticed that the year articles start dropping off in consistency around the 2300s. If 2099 ends up getting deleted, we'll need to take a look at pretty much all the years there-after. --Brad Beattie ^(talk) 06:47, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Disambiguate as per User:IslaySolomon. Sorry, I did look at the pages, but didn't notice that they were redirects. Oh, the shame. :( --Brad Beattie ^(talk) 16:22, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Comment. Er... 2132, 2207, ..., 2301 don't have pages of their own, they're all redirected to their respective century or decade, perhaps you should have looked at them before putting them in your comment. The last year to have a page of its own is 2065, as I said before. Philip Stevens 07:03, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Brad. - Mike | Talk 12:36, 22 October 2006 (UTC) Merge and redirect to 2090s. - Mike | Talk 12:41, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and Redirect it's too early to have a separate article for this year.-- danntm ^T _C 14:06, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep because 2099 may be searched for by people looking for the Marvel Comics series, and I'm not sure a straight redirect is a good idea. FrozenPurpleCube 14:13, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Disambiguate with links to the decade 2090s and the comic book series Marvel 2099. -- IslaySolomon | talk 15:59, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete and redirect per nom. M1ss1ontomars2k4 ^{(T | C | @)} 16:29, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to 2090s. A merge shouldn't require an AfD. — RJH (talk) 18:06, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Ultra delete merge and redirect Two of the so-called "events" the article cites are not events, but rather fictional comedies/comics. --WaltCip 13:18, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
