[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Catholicism 101/Strategy

• Speedy Keep. Shouldn't be on AfD. This should be listed at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion instead. DarthVader 23:40, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
• Moved from AFD See the talk page for some discussion. No vote from me. Kotepho 00:10, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

  This isn't a vote, just a note. Kotepho 15:16, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment: Comments above this line precede the listing on MFD. Stifle (talk) 14:11, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

• NOTE: Moved votes below the line. Left DarthVad's vote above the line because it's about the process of nominating this page for deletion not the substantive question of whether to keep the page.

• Delete This was unilaterally done by a user. The discussions should be page by page OR he should file a RfM. The discussions were moved back to the page where he snipped them away. Dominick ^(TALK) 18:57, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Keep This is precisely what Project Pages are for. Richard 19:25, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep- a WikiProject page... no valid reason to delete. —ERcheck @ 01:07, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Keep Articles and Categories regarding Catholicism/the Catholic Church are woefully disorganized and poorly linked or crossreferenced to once another. There needs to be a place where over-arching organizational matters should be discussed. Perhaps more care needs to be taken to alert the various talk pages inviting editors to join a conversation that concerns them. I am presently working on a plan for a topic-wide re-organization, and there is no central place to discuss this without such a project page. An encyclopedia needs to be coherent and well organized across wide ranges of articles, not just on the level of each individual article. This is not brain surgery. This is what we do at WikiProject Saints. If we do keep this WikiProject, we need to make sure it is well advertized to all the related Talk pages. --Vaquero100 12:57, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

In the interest of "truth in advertising", the project Wikipedia:WikiProject Catholicism 101 has existed for some time. This "delete" discussion is not about deleting the project but about whether there should be a subpage of that project called "/Strategy". The idea of using subpages for discussion forums is suggested by the standard Wikiproject Template [[Template:WikiProject]]. I don't think this distinction would change Vaquero100's vote but I just wanted to keep things crystal clear. --Richard 16:30, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

• Userfy (?) I don't see anything pernicious about the discussion ongoing at the page - it seems reasonable and in good faith, and should not be deleted. However, it isn't centrally located, and nominator is probably concerned about "forking" the discussion: it is hard to reach a meaningful concensus on a page so far removed from the topics it seeks to address. To remove the appearence that this effort has wide support, one solution would be to userfy. Xoloz 16:28, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
