Description
This project talks about the fantasy genre. I wanted to give the genre it's own WikiProject instead of a section in the WikiProject Speculative Fiction RainbowSilver2ndBackup (talk) 19:30, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

List of important pages and categories for this proposed group
 * category (most of the are subcategories)
 * category (most of the are subcategories)


 * List of WikiProjects currently on the talk pages of those articles
 * Please invite these and any other similar groups to join the discussion about this proposal. See WikiProject_Council/Directory to find similar WikiProjects.




 * Why do you want to start a new group, instead of joining one of these existing groups?
 * There is no WikiProject that talk entirely about fantasy even though some exist through WikiProjects of other topics such as "Fantasy novels".

Support
Also, specify whether or not you would join the project.

 * 1) Support. I already regularly edit such topics, so would sign up for it if it existed. I would not have been opposed to it remaining a task force, but WP:WikiProject Speculative fiction was WP:MFDed out of existence, as redundant and unused. Fantasy is a major enough genre that it will stand on its own., along with the projects on sci-fi and horror.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  22:50, 18 February 2019 (UTC)

Discussion
, Because this has been discussed before, at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Novels/Fantasy task force, and because this overlaps significantly with that large 80-member task force, I think it makes sense to go there to get broad consensus on this proposal, and on if/how it would affect that TF, before proceeding. Would 30 days be enough time to get that consensus? UnitedStatesian (talk) 15:49, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
