[edit]

Please gain consensus here for the removal of the entry before removing the entry again. Carter00000 (talk) 06:20, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

do you really think that a boycott by a deputy minister is a "clearly notable event"? Do you know what a "deputy minister" is? Do you know that the World Cup has not even started? Do you know that people don't come to Wikipedia to "play"? _-_Alsor (talk) 07:15, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The blurb here does a very poor job of explaining what significance there is. According to the BBC source, this is apparently a decision by the Welsh government, not an individual one by Dawn Bowden. The blurb implies the latter. —Cryptic 09:50, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Alsoriano97. I've amended the entry to reflect that the match has not happened yet.

@Cryptic. I've amended the entry as per your comment to reflect that the decision was made by the Welsh government and not an personally by Dawn Bowden.

It's still irrelevant. "Announce"? Come on, I'm sure it can wait until the day of the game, right? That's what can be remarkable. Everyone announces many things and Wikipedia is a serious place. It's just that the boycott is still being done by a deputy minister from a subnational (although sovereigb) entity. Do you know what rank that is? _-_Alsor (talk) 11:14, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
