List of artists that refused to perform at Donald Trump's inauguration listed at Redirects for discussion
edit
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect List of artists that refused to perform at Donald Trump's inauguration. Since you had some involvement with the List of artists that refused to perform at Donald Trump's inauguration redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. -- Tavix (talk) 02:21, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
The article West Midlands mayoral election, 2020 has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- this is clearly a case of WP:TOOSOON
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

- As there are pages for other local elections in 2020 (see Category:English local elections, 2020), I feel that if this should be deleted, they should too? If the rest stay, then so should this article. The results from the 2017 elections will be known in two days time, which can then be populated onto this article. In only one day's time it will be the next WM mayoral election, which I don't feel is too soon. CarlDurose (talk) 09:15, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
- Hi toosoon is an essay to explain why some topics should not have pages yet and actors and films are exemples.
