Comment: Very early for years beyond 2030 to have a standalone article. Some entries in this draft seem to be predictions or assumptions that fail WP:NOTCRYSTALBALL. These future events can still change since they are still five years ahead. AstrooKai (Talk) 19:58, 1 January 2025 (UTC)- Comment: @AstrooKai: The 'predictions' have been scheduled. If the year changes for an event, just change the article it is on. Based on what you said, all of them would be predictions, however, they are notable events, which are likely to happen. They can still change, but it's worth adding them onto this article. Also, I have no intentions to publish this as a standalone article yet, however, we could start thinking about it in late 2025/early 2026. For now, I want to work on the article to make it the best it can be. Diegg24 (talk) 08:13, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
