:::Pretty much entirely agree with Ac2k. I can't say I really agree with any of the points Miles made. I don't see any issue with overlap of competitive articles within the mainspace and no policies seem to suggest otherwise. As far as determining what is notable or not, we can easily make an amendment to the Notability policy determining what is and isn't impactful to the scene. I'd definitely argue that these three events in particular have deeply impacted the scene.

Well first I'll get my opinion out of the way: This template groups together all the articles I don't want us to have because their content is covered just fine on the relevant pages. Grouping them on their own pages causes information duplication, and by their very nature they'll be constant targets - I don't really mean vandalism targets because we can use protection for that, I mean "pages that make it a lot easier for people to give the wiki negative publicity". | |||
Now the template itself: I think it is naturally much harder to define what makes an "event" notable compared to a player or tournament. Players have results that can be compared to some reasonable baselines; tournaments have things like number of entrants or prize money. But events by their very nature cannot be compared to each other in such a way, which is how we would decide which ones are notable and which are not. In addition, I do not think any event classified as "ongoing" can have its notability determined fairly without a large amount of recency bias; it would have to be considered "over" for a few months first.
