Fails WP:NGAME and WP:GNG. Paul Vaurie (talk) 19:24, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep (or Draft) It's certainly early, but articles are coming out today about the cover athlete and a "full reveal" is scheduled for 2 days from now. It will release in a couple months and will certainly be notable. Every other NHL game has an article. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 19:49, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify per WP:TOOSOON. This article can come out the same time as the others. It could be a couple of days or up to the start of the NHL season. Conyo14 (talk) 19:50, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify: Obvious TOOSOON. Articles are coming out about Makar being on the cover, but that doesn't provide substantive coverage to the subject: "Cale Makar will be on the cover of NHL24" says nothing about the subject beyond those nine words, and that isn't even sub-stub material.

The subject is apparently due to be announced in 2 days, might be worth just sitting on and seeing how the article develops. - Indefensible (talk) 22:20, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify. Nominated for AfD two hours after creation and one hour after initial media coverage of the cover athlete selection (ESPN, Hockey News, among others). WP:ATD is policy; WP:ATD-I both allows and suggests that new page reviewers can unilaterally draftify before nominating for deletion. The nominator was this page's reviewer, and this AfD just wasted people's time instead. -Socccc (talk) 22:42, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
