[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject iPhone

A WikiProject dedicated to the maintenance of a single article. Its single contributor, GranTurismo2 (talk · contribs) (now MyMii (talk · contribs)), has made no contributions to Wikipedia since 2007-11-24. — pd_THOR ^{| =/\=} | 00:47, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

• Speedy delete, P1 → A1 Fails all aspects of Wikipedia:Portal guidelines, and contains little or no context. --12 Noon ^2¢ 01:18, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
  • This is neither a portal nor an article, though, so neither of those speedy criteria apply. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 02:45, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
    • Please pardon my intermittent aptitudinal ineffectiveness.--12 Noon ^2¢ 15:01, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete as entirely undesirable. The scope is too narrow to justify a WikiProject (or even a taskforce) and therefore is unsustainable, as evidenced by the lack of participants. --12 Noon ^2¢ 15:01, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - This is not a speedy candidate, but it is a one member single-article project. No one else has edited (not counting removals of images, tagging for mfd, etc.) The really unfortunate thing is that the talk page starts with a post "I need HELP" and the user_talk page is full of Help requests; if someone had seen this back when the user was still editing this enthusiasm could have been redirected to improving the article, working on other projects, etc. I only hope the editor doesn't come back, find the Project deleted and decide to leave. Suggest a personal note from the closer assuming we delete this, or I can post one if I notice it close.--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 05:05, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Note: the "I need HELP" comment was on the template, which was just deleted, so it no longer appears on the talk page. --12 Noon ^2¢ 15:01, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. Seeing as this project didn't really get too far, and would be better covered by other more broad projects (Mac project, etc), it doesn't do harm to delete it now. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 09:30, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - It seems to be an abortive, if well-intentioned, attempt to coordinate coverage of the iPhone. As pointed out above, though, that purpose is better served by existing projects, and the additional fact that this didn't get very far means there's no need to tag it as historical. On a related note, I've tagged {{WikiprojectiPhone}}, a template transcluded on the project talk page, for speedy deletion as a test page. --jonny-mt 11:32, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - per the above. Project does not have sufficient scope to justify its existence, and other projects already cover the material in question. John Carter (talk) 01:01, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Too narrow. MBisanz ^talk 06:55, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
