Per the suggestion in the closed discussion above I have placed the events that have been discussed and passed so far onto ]. I still feel new with how things work here so feel free to change what I have done, move it, etc. ] (]) 00:56, 29 May 2013 (UTC) |

*Is the aim to change the scope/remit of ITN/R, or to simply make sure all items are "accountable" to a discussion? If the latter, there are a fair few items which are on the current list with citations for community consensus (e.g. the Sumo item). ]<sup> ] ]</sup> 09:59, 29 May 2013 (UTC) |
|
|
**The biggest aim is indeed to make sure all items have a discussion where they obtained consensus for inclusion, something which doesn't exist for all items now(or it may have changed). If there are items that had consensus or are otherwise not controversial, they can be proposed much like the above "non-controversial" discussions above. The goal is to create a new list that will replace the current one once said current one has been reviewed. ] (]) 10:10, 29 May 2013 (UTC) |

] edit, revert if you disagree. No-one had edited the page for months, so I've tagged it as historical and removed the link from the top of this page. A third-level discussion page seems rather overkill anyways. If these elections need to be discussed, I can't see a good reason why it can't be done here. --]<sup> ] ]</sup> 00:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC) |

I am surprised that there is no athletics and swimming in ITN/R and there is plenty for a majority of other sports. These are the biggest events other than the Olympics, considering we successfully got the recent WAC listed and the athletics have started today. ] (]) 13:01, 9 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Support both''' Big events that get international coverage. My only concern is that I don't like blurbs that just say "X has started/finished in Y", without imparting any real news. I therefore think that posting the end of the tournament (as we did for the recent World Aquatics Championships) would be preferable, since then we can at least include the country that tops the medal table (and any particularly noteworthy achievements, such as Missy Franklin's in the recent one). ] (]) 02:29, 11 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Support both''': As mentioned in the Aquatics ITNC nomination they are two of the three Category A ]. ] (]) 14:18, 11 August 2013 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Support both''' as per nom. From a procedural POV, I'd suggest not putting this into effect until ''after'' this year's IAAF World Championships in Athletics nomination has been posted (can't imagine much trouble on notability grounds). --]<sup> ] ]</sup> 20:21, 11 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Support both''' It's pretty strange that the World Championships in two of the most popular sports in any terms are underrated to the team sports.--] (]) 16:05, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Support both''' (at end of events) - both recently passed with no opposition so I can't imagine them failing in the future. --] (]) 21:27, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Oppose both''' ITNR itself is based on a false premise that prior !votes establish a precedent. ] (]) 21:37, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |

::::I'm not going to retype the reasons above that I agree with, instead of simply saying I agree with them, just for you. I did not say your reason was "invalid", I said it was not relevant. This isn't a discussion about the existence of ITNR in general or how people arrive at their opinions. This is about discussing whether or not this item should be ITNR. ] (]) 03:09, 19 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Support IAAF World Championships in Athletics, oppose World Aquatics Championships''' I've seen the world athletics gain quite a bit of coverage where I'm from, but I've barely seen much from the world aquatics. Just because it happens to fall in the top Olympic revenue share category doesn't necessarily mean it translates into international media coverage. ] (]) 19:49, 23 August 2013 (UTC) |

As another user said "Category A ]" in my previous proposal, I discovered that Gymnastics is the third in that category which is not also in ITN/R yet, so I proposed two championships that have a lot of history at the World Championship and the Olympics. I also proposed ice skating as it is one of the biggest sport in the Winter Olympics as I was surprised that it was not being included nor nominated yet. The former two is coming up in a few months time. ] (]) 13:34, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Comment''' Gymnastics, along with athletics and swimming, is surely one of the most popular sports and always attracts many spectators at the Olympics, but I'm afraid that the gap in the popularity of the Olympic events in gymnastics and the World Championships is so big that it doesn't merit inclusion simply because it's gymnastics. Also note that there are separate World Championships in artistic and rhythmic gymnastics, which further diminishes the significance of the both events. As for the figure skating, the World Championships are surely very significant among the Winter sports, but there are other significant sports like alpine skiing, biathlon and cross-country that must be taken into consideration.--] (]) 16:17, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Comment'''. The gymnastics articles are almost prose-free. That indicates to me that the events are not held in high esteem, at least by Wikipedians. ] (]) 16:20, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |
|
|
*:Interest among Wikipedians should definitely not be considered an important factor in overall notability.--] (]) 02:12, 19 August 2013 (UTC) |

**:Au contraire. For any sporting event that is among the very most important in the world, so that it might be considered for membership of the exclusive ITNR club, I would expect to see a fair amount of prose, outlining the history of the event, its governance, qualification structures, noteworthy controversies, design of medals, what the actual things are that competitors do etc. But Wikipedians don't seem to have found these events important enough. Granted, Wikipedians only represent a sample of all English-speaking people, but I think its a very good guide. ] (]) 11:04, 19 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Support''' Artistic Gymnastics. I believe it is more popular than Rhythmic based on e.g. the number of Olympic events and coverage in my country.<br>'''Weak support''' the other two. They certainly compare favourably to several of the included sports events.<br>Naturally, if editors don't care about the events are they won't be posted for quality reasons. Hopefully listing them here may be an extra motivation for creating quality articles on them. ] (]) 20:12, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Support''' Artistic Gymnastics only. It is the more popular of the two and is followed for Olympic prospects. ] (]) 21:52, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Weak oppose''' on Figure Skating; the Olympics is typically the only time that is followed closely. ] (]) 22:02, 18 August 2013 (UTC) |
|

*I would prefer the items go through the regular ITN process at least once. Doing so provides a good chance to evaluate the level of coverage in "real time" rather than trying to gauge it from the past (incomplete archives) or the future (speculation). At the moment, I would '''lean support''' for artistic and skating and '''lean oppose''' to rhythmic. --] (]) 04:18, 19 August 2013 (UTC) |

== Inclusion proposal: Election of the ] == |

The President of the International Olympic Committee has a prominent role in the world of sports. She or he has a very visible contribution every two years during the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the Olympic Games, events which are followed by hundred of millions, for instance she/he proclaims the Games closed during the Closing Ceremony. In addition she/he is the person who announces the host cities. The election of a new president is a rare event, once every eight or twelve years. ] (]) 06:33, 7 September 2013 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Question'''. If it's such a rare event, does it really need to take up space on ITNR? ITNR is meant for more regularly occurring events. ] (]) 09:29, 7 September 2013 (UTC) |
|
|
*Let's nominate this as a regular ITN/C item when it happens this session, then think about ITNR. --]<sup> ] ]</sup> 10:21, 7 September 2013 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Comment''' I believe the IOC Presidential election is usually conducted at the same congress at whichh an Olympic host city is chosen. They can therefore be incorporated into one blurb. I think the election of a new president would probably be important enough on its own, but that can probably be left to be determined on a case-by-case basis. I'm not sure that the re-election of a president would be sufficiently important by itself. ] (]) 01:40, 8 September 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Oppose''' Why the hell do we need to put something on ITN/R that's only going to happen once every dozen years? How about we put ] on ITN/R as well? Maybe ice ages? The heat death of the universe? (Ok, that last one isn't recurring.) -- ''']''' 03:19, 8 September 2013 (UTC) |
