In [[2003]] after the inaugural success of the [[2002 FIFA U-19 Women's World Championship]], held in [[Canada]], FIFA proposed adding a second youth tournament for girls. Continental confederations told FIFA it would be difficult to create a second championship, with the age limits in place at the time. Therefore, FIFA created the U-17 Women's World Cup and the [[FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup|U-20 Women's World Championship]] (renamed the "U-20 Women's World Cup" in 2007), the same age groups as its men's youth tournaments. Accordingly, the age limit for the U-19 championship was increased to 20, effective with the [[2006 FIFA U-20 Women's World Championship]] in [[Russia]]. FIFA committed to creating a U-17 women's championship, slated to begin in [[2008]]. [http://fifa.com/en/comp/index/0,3332,U17W2008,00.html?comp=U17W&year=2008]

The phrase "2008 Nobel Prize in Chemistry" is a link, implying that there is a page about this year's chemistry prize. However it actually links to [[Nobel Prize in Chemistry]], which is a generic page.

:I have just seen that the Physics & Literature entries are also formatted the same way ("2008 Nobel Prize in X" links to "Nobel Prize in X"), so maybe this is a deliberate style choice but if so I think it is misleading.

::It is sometimes displayed in this manner - I think you're right in that it could mislead, but it's not ''wrong'', it's just perhaps not the best way it could be linked. It's not always done that way - see, for example, [[J. M. Coetzee]]. I've changed this one. I also changed the bolding, as the top entry had emboldened the winner's name, and the bottom entry had emboldened the award's name.

::: Thanks for that. I agree that it is not wrong in the sense that "2+2=5" is wrong but as it is (or at least could be) misleading and a better alternative is readily available I would say that it should be avoided.
::: Also I checked the articles of the seven recipients listed on ITN and six of them do not include the "2008" in the link, [[Roger Y. Tsien]] being the exception. <aside>Some say "Nobel Prize for X in 2008" so it is not an issue</aside>. As the Main Page is supposed to defer to the subject pages I think what you have changed it to is ''right'' in some sense of the word..

FIFA committed to creating a U-17 women's championship, slated to begin in 2008. [1]
