2020 move to 2022
@
Fort esc: Can you explain the rationale behind moving the 2020 article to 2022? I understand that it was technically postponed, but most of the information about 2020 is not relevant to 2022. After reading through the article it feels like there's a gotcha at the end of each section saying "nah this is happening instead". For 2022, it doesn't really matter what was planned for 2020. Most of that information can be captured in 3-4 sentences on the main
Eurovision Young Musicians article in a history section.

Grk1011: My view was that it was simply a postponed contest, not actually cancelled and that some of the information (such as the participants) would be the same. I thought this type of move had already been done a few times before with, for example,
Turkvision Song Contest. But yes I agree with you. Thanks,

That one was also rather haphazardly done, but there was also less info there. I think what makes this different is that even though it's "postponed", they've reset the entire planning process. I think there are tidbits that may be worth keeping for context, but so much of the existing article will need to be trimmed down/removed.
