- Delete - Concur with above. Article should be deleted per WP:CRYSTAL. Editor10293813 (talk) 18:01, 8 June 2018 (UTC)]
- Keep It's the end of the 2017-18 season, although early for next season we always need these articles and the Coppa Italia is a major tournament and I am sure it will be fixed up properly soon, just delete it to recreate in a few weeks seems pointless. Govvy (talk) 18:56, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep WP:CRYSTAL does not provide an argument for deletion, as the event is notable and almost certain to take place. Television rights have been secured for the next three seasons, and this has been an annual event since 1958. The season starts in only a few weeks. Maybe it could have been left in draft space for a while, but it would certainly have been created within a few weeks. Last year, the Italian WP created an article on 18 June with a schedule published by the League on 12 June, and English WP created an article on 28 July. I'm sure someone fluent in Italian could find plenty of sources, if not today then certainly by the time this AfD closes. Jack N. Stock (talk) 08:30, 9 June 2018 (UTC)]
- Keep - CRYSTAL does not apply here. Show some ]
- Keep - if it somehow doesn't happen, that would still be notable. It will start in about 2 months, and there are probably Italian references now. I expect that the regular football editors will update this very soon. π, ν) 18:19, 9 June 2018 (UTC)]
- Keep, and speedy. Ridiculous nom. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 18:25, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
- Nominating an unreferenced article for a future event is never ridiculous. There are plenty of Italian sources, but my Italian is very bad even with Google Translate; I've added one source for the start date. π, ν) 18:42, 9 June 2018 (UTC)]

- Per GiantSnowman, COMMONSENSE. It was poorly written to start with, and probably created a bit too early, but after 70+ years of playing, and a quick google search will show it is obviously running. For this nom, it's ridiculous. The source doesn't say it starts August 11 or 12, it says August 12 for the 2018 Supercoppa Italiana, which was recently changed to January 2019, so the info is outdated. It doesn't look like there's a start date for the Coppa Italia yet, but we can see that it is obviously playing for those sources.Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 18:56, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
- I copied the wrong link. [1] is the one with the 11 August date. π, ν) 19:12, 9 June 2018 (UTC)]
- I found thousands of mentions of the 2018-19 TIM Cup, including the sale of the TV rights, start date, and when ticket sales commence. Like you, I consider Google Translate is poor at Italian→English, and also I don't know which Italian sources are preferable or considered reliable, so I left it for one of the many Italian-speaking soccer fans to provide citations.

- Keep It's already scheduled and notable per WP:GNG even if the article wasn't fleshed out when I saw it. Clear keep. It's at the point where if it gets canceled, it'll be notable. SportingFlyer talk 19:29, 9 June 2018 (UTC)]
- Speedy keep Per all above, this is a ridiculous nomination, it's obviously happening, it's obviously happening soon, and we have literally thousands of sources. Smartyllama (talk) 12:55, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep, pedantic nomination. Jmorrison230582 (talk) 04:48, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
