[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Marillion

Dead WikiProject. The project page was created and edited by 1 user for a few days in January and February of this year. The talk page is pretty dead as well: a few edits in February, one in June. RobJ1981 03:27, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Comment -- if this project page is deleted, then presumably the project's article and assessment categories and talk page banners will need to be deleted too. The one editor put effort into assessing the articles for start/stub status and importance. (Note that the links from the assessment matrix all call up Marillion-related article categories (which are all empty), whereas they should be calling up the same cats without '-related'. I do not know how to fix this!) Is there an alternative project that could adopt the asssessments?

Much as I like Marillion's music, I do not have information which would help WP, which is why I have watched, rather than contributed to, this project. Presumably, Marillion fans are not regular users of WP...

• Keep - Wikipedia:WikiProject Music of the United Kingdom could possibly take over the functions of this project. Suggest that the project be allowed to remain and possibly discuss merger before this more drastic step be taken. John Carter 14:28, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
• Delete wikiproject that never really went off the ground that much, too broad for a topic as well, Wikipedia:WikiProject Music of the United Kingdom is inactive as well, so they can't possibly take overJaranda ^{wat's sup Sports!} 01:31, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
• Comment - Wikipedia:WikiProject Music of the United Kingdom was just joined by the same clown above who seems to have some sort of sick fixation on collecting userboxes. There is a very real chance that as soon as he can figure out how to make a userbox and banner for the project, he'll be plastering it hither and yon like he has with all of his other extremely derivative work. The prospect of merging this project to that one could be viable in a week or so, when I get the templates done. John Carter 00:58, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
• Userfy - maybe - I've posted a notice on the creator's userpage. I do see an awful lot of work organizing a plan of action and there may be execution, just no members.--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 01:00, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
• Userfy the following. - jc37 22:27, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Wikipedia:WikiProject Marillion to User:Setanta747/WikiProject Marillion
  • Wikipedia:WikiProject Marillion/Assessment to User:Setanta747/WikiProject Marillion/Assessment
  • Template:WPMAR to User:Setanta747/WikiProject Marillion/WPMAR
  • Template:Marillion singles - Delete as is just a copy of other navboxes in the future hope to create one for Marillion.
  • Template:Marillionlp to User:Setanta747/WikiProject Marillion/Lps
  • Template:Marillionsgl to User:Setanta747/WikiProject Marillion/Singles
  • Template:Marillion to User:Setanta747/WikiProject Marillion/Article bottom - While it's currently deleted, it should probably be restored to the user.
• Comment - There's also Category:WikiProject Marillion and it's many subcats (and subsubcats). Though I suppose these categories could be "Listified" to User:Setanta747/WikiProject Marillion/Articles. - jc37 22:33, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
