WikiProject Tarling


I don't think we need a wikiproject devoted to a single surname; especially when we only have one article with that surname. No prejudice against deletion if this picks up steam and many other notable Tarlings are found. Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 20:44, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Userfy - To quote WP:PROJ "A WikiProject is a group of contributors who want to work together as a team to improve Wikipedia. These groups often focus on a specific topic area or a specific kind of task. (emphasis mine). A WikiProject with one contributor is not a WikiProject at all. If a single editor wants a place to coordinate his work, the User: namespace is the best place for it. If more editors can be found who'd like to coordinate, I have no qualms with moving back to WP: space. Achowat (talk) 04:04, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Actually not needed. Refer WP:PROJ. Later, the interested group (currently single user) can make a WikiProject proposal - Ninney (talk) 12:12, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete per Ninney. It would be much more logical for this to start as a task force of WikiProject Anthroponymy anyway, though even that might be excessive for coverage of such a narrow topic. The lack of an actual surname article at Tarling makes this all the more baffling. Perhaps this was just a test? --BDD (talk) 19:11, 26 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. Too small to be t WikiProject. Allow userfication on request. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:21, 26 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. Completely arbitrary distinction. Even if we had a hundred thousand biographies with this surname, WP:WPBIO and WP:WPNAMES would do a better job here. (Note: Template:WikiProject Tarling has been created. Would it go under WP:G8 after this is deleted?) Keφr 14:27, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, that seems logical. --BDD (talk) 18:25, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
