[edit] Wikimedia Incubator

In all seriousness, this is overkill on self-referencial content. To understand this, this is the place where new projects by the foundation go for testing before they get their own full section. Think about this, does it really meet WP:WEB? I can understand many of the things in the {{Wikimedia Foundation}} template, but this I dunno. Most of the wikimedia foundation's projects are putting quite a show, though not as strongly as the wikipedia is. But this is just the testbed for new projects; they have to come from somewhere, yes, but giving too much into self-content will look bad. Please don't say keep just because this is one of the foundation's projects, I'd rather we be impartial about the content on wikipedia. --Kevin_b_er 02:28, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete I think the Incubator is a great project. But I agree that it's not notable enough for an article. Bastique▼parler voir 02:31, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    • Merge and redirect seems to make more sense. I'm willing to go with consensus. Bastique▼parler voir 15:32, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect to Wikimedia Foundation. Doesn't deserve its own article, but could use a couple sentences of mention in the main one. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 04:50, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect per above. - Mgm|(talk) 10:20, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect per Night Gyr. It deserves mention somewhere, but not really in its own article. --Gray Porpoise 10:49, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
