Discussion[edit]

  • Conditional Support only this proposal if in fact is understood similarly to the WP:ASIA project - which is an umbrella/central point for the various projects that are component projects, and functions to link and centralise issues and categories... It would be very valuable if set up properly and had adequate support.

Very concerned that the proposor and the second supporter are very low edit users (unless they are socks or something) - the project setting up requires considerable effort; to actually get a project running requires sufficient experitse in coding and creating templates and things...

Considering the amount of edit time taken for others in the past arguing about what constitutes 'Australasia' and variants, one would hope that the proposed project is very well defined, in what constitutes the component parts.

Existing groups are sister or daughter projects also would need to be established clearly sats 06:50, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
