Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Rail transport in Jamaica

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the miscellaneous page below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the page's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the discussion was Userfy - the creator is still involved and there is support to keep the project but no past practice nor support from the WikiProject Council/Guide for single member projects outside userspace. Equal support for a redirect; however this would result in eliminating the project that is under development and redirecting to a relatively unrelated location. If the project had more members this could be seen as grounds to turn it into a task force if the parent project were willing; however, in this case that creates a blended consensus for userfication, which is consistent with both past practice and the WikiProject Council/Guide (both of which are non-binding but indicative of community position on the default position).--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 12:36, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiProject Rail transport in Jamaica

Relisted. Salvio ^{Let's talk about it!} 11:38, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This has only one member, and not enough members to join the project. JJ98 (Talk / Contributions) 20:34, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Project will be progressed when I have the time. The project page is a useful place to summarise known resources, progress and work still to do. The number of project members is irrelevant; more could join at any time. -Arb. (talk) 09:28, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Wikipedia:WikiProject Jamaica or similar Overly-narrow one-member 2009 project that never became a collaboration. Zero discussions. Founder is encouraged to work with other editors, not on his/her own. --Klein zach 01:02, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Salvio ^{Let's talk about it!} 11:38, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect (to either the Jamaica wikiproject or Trains wikiproject, I don't care). Wikiprojects are for collaboration; you'd need at least several people to make a meaningful wikiproject, but no other person has signed up for this one in the couple of years that it's been around. It seems unlikely that a surge of new members is imminent. bobrayner (talk) 21:13, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per User:Arb. One committed member is not bad. I don't know that a single-member wikiproject is or should be forbidden. There is a useful amount of information here, so it certainly should not be deleted. Whether this project should be merged to a larger project is a matter for discussion with its active members. If Arb says he is going to work with this wikiproject, and doesn't want to work within a different more broad wikiproject, then leave him alone. I imagine that it would be nice if there were a measure of activity of members in a wikiproject, perhaps the number of editors who have made 10 edits in covered articles in the past month. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 08:43, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
