Needed?

edit

Does this article really need to excist? They have not been in the past and i can't see a reason why it should be. Kante4 (talk) 10:57, 3 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

@GolazoGolazo1234, Flix11, and S.A. Julio:. Any opinion? Kante4 (talk) 13:25, 3 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
I agree the article is not necessary. I thought the understanding was that we don't have articles on finals of Olympic events, unless independently notable such as 1972 Olympic Men's Basketball Final. S.A. Julio (talk) 19:05, 3 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Kante4: Should this be discussed elsewhere? Now an article for the women's final has been created, this seems quite excessive to me and adds very little. S.A. Julio (talk) 12:49, 4 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
@S.A. Julio: Maybe the footy project? Or olympic prject (aswell)? Kante4 (talk) 12:59, 4 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
Keep. It is a major event in the Olympics. Suwon FIFA World Cup Stadium 24:50, 4 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
Comment: I came across this discussion after noticing the article about the women’s final had already been changed to a redirect. My understanding is that the Olympic women’s football tournament is second only to the Women’s World Cup in prominence (I know the men’s tournament is different due to age limits), so it seems inconsistent to me that there would be articles about, say, continent-specific final games like the UEFA Women's Euro 2017 Final, but not the Olympic women’s football final which I believe would (normally) be a bigger event. But I also get that if there’s an article about the women’s Olympic final, it would be strange not to have one for the men’s final, or even other Olympic sports’ finals, differences in quality/popularity notwithstanding. — stickguy (:^›)— || talk || 03:54, 6 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
I restored the article about the women’s final for now. I can see no reason to delete that one and keep this while it is being discussed. --Skizziktalk 17:53, 6 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
Both articles should be deleted, tbh. Kante4 (talk) 01:56, 7 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
