The proposed WikiProject was not created. Closing proposal. There was some interest at the time, but the proposal has gone stale. Feel free to re-propose anytime to guage current interest. Ajpolino (talk) 21:29, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Description

[edit]

The World Trade Center proposed WikiProject would be a project dedicated to articles related to the World Trade Center (New York), including–but not limited to–World Trade Center (1973-2001), World Trade Center (2001-present) and World Trade Center site. I am proposing this WikiProject, because there are so many topics on the World Trade Center, and a WikiProject with editors who like editing articles related to the World Trade Center could team up and make sure all articles are up-to-date, improve articles, nominate for GA/FA, and much more fun stuff, with this new WTC WikiProject. I first discussed the idea with User:Epicgenius, a wonderful user who does a lot of editing on WTC subjects. I do want to stamp out some "concerns" or some questions people may have. There is a September 11, 2001 WikiProject, however, having a World Trade Center task force would cause some trouble. First thing, the group is semi-active, and second thing, not everything related to the World Trade Center is directly related to the September 11 attacks. That's why I am proposing a separate WikiProject. I hope you support, and if you have any questions, please ask! CookieMonster755 📞 ✉ ✓ 19:33, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please invite these and any other similar groups to join the discussion about this proposal. See Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Directory to find similar WikiProjects.
Why do you want to start a new group, instead of joining one of these existing groups?
Please see my synopsis above. Like I mentioned, a separate project for the World Trade Center would be beneficial in several ways, including that the 9/11 WikiProject is not very active and that not everything associated to the WTC is associated with the September 11 attacks.

  2. I endorse this proposal and I would also join this wikiproject if it is created. However, some logistical difficulties need to be worked out, such as a banner and guidelines. Sincerely, Kylo, Rey, & Finn Consortium (formerly epicgenius) (talk) 19:46, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
