Wikipedia:WikiProject Data Science


Nominating this one also for the same reasons as WikiProject Ivy League. I don't know what the criteria are for Wikiprojects, but the statement that this was formed by several Wikipedians seems dubious given that only its creator has edited this page and there are no other pages. The editor is also indefinitely topic banned from "anything to do with race, racism, racial history and politics, slavery, or white supremacy" and is currently under a one week block for violating it. I note that the only content under new articles is content that they may not editThis one seems particularly WP:POINTY. He's also creating an oral history one which I'm not nominating although it makes the same claim about several Wikipedians. Doug Weller talk 15:50, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete This editor has created 6 or 7 wikiprojects (some have been deleted, so I'm not sure) with no members other than himself. This is not the purpose of wikiprojects. Natureium (talk) 16:26, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete and let's nominate the other ones that never started beyond an idea. Legacypac (talk) 18:32, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete as a WikiProject with only one member. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 17:28, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete – Duplicative of WP:WikiProject Computer science and WP:WikiProject Statistics. Also, this new project has been around for four months with no activity; no new members; even the editor who started it appeared to abandon it after creating it (no edits since 13 Nov 2018).

 * Delete - In addition to what Legacypac says, the agenda on the project page shows that the proponent is using the WikiProject combatively in violation of their topic-ban. No good is likely to come of this.  Robert McClenon (talk) 04:06, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a stillborn WikiProject. &#8213; Susmuffin Talk 17:23, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
