The only current speeches by President Biden with wikipedia pages are his inagural adresss, his first adresss to a Joint session of Congress, and his first State of the Union. All of these were important presidential remarks covered nationally. This speech, while talked about, was not different than any other speech than Biden gave, it was not covered nationally.[1]Esolo5002 (

Keep. What channels it aired on live don't really affect the speech's notability. The speech itself has been covered by national (see sources cited in the article) and international (
Guardian,
BBC) sources.

But every speech made by the President is going to have coverage, the question if the speech was anything other than routine?

Keep – "This speech, while talked about, was not different than any other speech than Biden gave, it was not covered nationally." Is grossly incorrect to the point of being disingenuous. Primetime coverage discussed in the media internationally. More sources and prose are possible, but the article meets notability standards without their addition. Putting this all in other articles would bloat them.

Keep – It's notable, but needs some work. More sources would help this article well. Covered by international and national sources.

Keep It would be routine coverage if the coverage is just "Joe Biden gave a speech". But given the existence of sources that outright analyze or contextualize the speech's contents, it's not routine coverage. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (

Keep - More sources will expand the page, and its significance will likely grow as American history further unfolds.

Keep – It's not about coverage, it's about content and the content of this speech is clear: "Donald Trump and his MAGA-Republican cohort are taking an active role in overthrowing American democracy."

You got it backwards. To be considered notable for Wikipedia, something needs to be widely covered.
