You can have the template for the project, but it goes on the article's talk page, so a reader would have to go to the talk page and see the template to get to the list. I rarely do that except with a few projects that I'm in.

I got your message about moving it to a project page. Is there going to be a Wikiproject about quackery? The problem I have with it being moved to a project page is it makes it harder for users to find it. With the list as an article, you can find it with "search". You can also add it under "see also" on each of the articles, so if you get to one of the articles you can easily get to the rest. If it is in the project space, it doesn't show up in a search. You can have the template for the project, but it goes on the article's talk page, so a reader would have to go to the talk page and see the template to get to the list.

OTOH, maybe it is time for a project on quackery - there is a category for wikipedians against quackery, etc. A formal project would be a good thing. Bubba73 (talk), 22:15, 4 January 2007 (UTC)


List of people related to quackery or anti-quackery

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article List of people related to quackery or anti-quackery, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Misplaced Pages, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.
