Translink
While I do admire the creator for trying to create a Wikiproject on Public Transport in the South East Queensland area which is run by TransLink, the subject isn't big enough to be spun off it's parent Wikiproject, which is WikiProject Brisbane. I propose deletion of this project or, if the user wants, copying the information into user space and then deleting the page. I will notify the creator of this project --Arnzy (talk · contribs) 11:50, 13 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep Brand new. "Isn't big enough" presumes knowledge which we reasonably do not have at this point at all.   What if it is "big enough" and we simply stop it here?  Seems that we will have no deadline in removal if the project does not move ahead, right? Collect (talk) 12:49, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment The subject concerned is about Public Transport in the area concerned (in this case Brisbane/SE Qld). Instead of trying to integrate main page and the smaller subjects into a project which is not likely to get any users apart but the few Transport Enthusiasts in the local area, the pages could easily been sorted by categories instead as a part of the larger project. Most of the pages related to TransLink (operators, stations, etc) is already categorised on most of the pages anyway.  Rail subjects related to TransLink has their own category, same with Bus Companies in the service area.
 * To further add, the creator seems to have rushed this project poorly due to grammar issues, and it's not even named right per WP:MOS, since 'Translink' is actually "TransLink" according to the documents of the organisation that runs it (which is Queensland Transport/Queensland Government) or "TRANSLink" according to the Logo. --Arnzy (talk · contribs) 13:29, 13 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep and rename WikiProject Translink. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 13:48, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No other Australian public transport body or agency has a project dedicated to it, and can't see a need for South East Queensland's to have one. SEO75  [  talk  ]  11:57, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Appears to be as much an argument for allowing other projects, as for deleting this one. Collect (talk) 13:22, 14 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep : i believe that the project should be given a chance for me to see if i can get some users also the project could also get changed to a project about public transport in general after a rename to help it go alon with seperate subpages for every state mattman (talk) 12:21, 14 January 2009 (UTC) ps. i will keep a backup on my userpage anyway
