Helen Osborne Storrow Immersed Tube Tunnel
I believe this to be a non-notable proposal by a private group, based on this Google search. In fact, they might be using Wikipedia for promotion: "He said those who want more information can find details on the Helen Osborne Storrow Immersed Tube Tunnel at www. HOSITT.us or on Wikipedia." This edit makes that clear: "Sorry, this may not be the most apropriate spot. But we've got a close deadline"; "That puts urgency to make Hositt easily accessible (and WikiHositt understood, even if Wikihositt engineers need anonymity to work)." Their site doesn't even work! --NE2 16:33, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete, advertising. Some of the article almost sounds like an encyclopedia article and then other bits are obviously just promotional. Considering that the editors' intentions are quite clear, I think it would be good to just speedy this to discourage people from doing this kind of thing. Recury 16:48, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete, advertising. Set up a web site, folks. Gazpacho 18:49, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Project proposals sound like some one is trying to make WikiPedia a crystal ball. Wikipedia is Not a Crystal Ball.  Until the project is greenlighted by the the Massachuesetts DOT it doesn't deserve mention here. --Jayron32 20:44, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. This topic could theoretically be notable even as a proposal if there were widespread media coverage and proper citations, but those are missing. Vectro 04:31, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
