816:: The reality of the situation is that the coronavirus epidemic will have significant and lasting flow-on effects on many aspects of society, both large and small. If there is significant widespread coverage of the smaller things being affected, then there isn't really any reason to exclude it on the basis that it's a smaller matter than much more important issues;
56:. Clear consensus that the article cannot stay on its own. Seems like there is a consensus as well that some of the material can be kept in the main Olympics article(s) so this is a merge rather than plain deletion, with the exact nature of the content to be kept presumably up for discussion through the usual means.

While it is clear that the unprecedented postponement of the Summer
Olympics is worth noting, I don't see any reason for us to create another page or Knowledge entry entirely devoted to that matter. A lot of sporting events other than the Olympics have either cancelled or postponed as well, including
623:; there is just about nothing to say except that it was postponed to 2021. It would make much more sense just to discuss the qualifying tournaments in the article in which they would normally be discussed, because all the upcoming ones have been postponed. This is really an indiscriminate list.—

the qualifying rounds for most of
Olympic sports. It's better to briefly include a section in the main Tokyo 2020 page about the postponement, and merge other important details (e.g. qualifying events that got cancelled) into one entry outlining the impact of Coronavirus in sports in general.

Yes I understand there are specialisms. And I understand sport- I actually have a sport DYK on the front page right now. And I don't believe the article is needed, because the relevant information (the Games postponement, torch relay) can go in the main

This frenzy to list every item in the news in the encyclopedia does not require this page: "Everything was canceled or postponed" gets you the gist. Details can go in the main
