Wikipedia:WikiProject SZA[edit]
Limited scope, lacks potential for growth and interest, new WikiProjects are currently being discouraged because of creations like this. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 22:38, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete we do not need a WikiProject for singers. Catfurball (talk) 22:49, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete or merge with another WikiProject - only around 120-ish articles are currently covered by the WikiProject, probably too-narrow in scope. Xeroctic (talk) 14:36, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
- Weak Keep - Taking an incipient WikiProject to MFD after five days because it either is still launching or has failed to launch seems premature. Wait a little longer to see if there is signup. (My own guess is that there will not be signup, but that this nomination is premature.) Robert McClenon (talk) 06:41, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment - Do we need some procedure for the review of WikiProjects other than MFD? Do we need a guideline on what are likely to be workable topic areas for WikiProjects? Robert McClenon (talk) 06:41, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
- Strong Keep The project has significantly improved the quality and coverage of articles to related to SZA and there's other popular singers who has wikiproject ( Dua Lipa, Michael Jackson, Olivia Rodrigo, etc).For instance, the project has contributed to the enhancement of key articles, such as her biography, discography and individual album pages. These improvements ensure that the information is reliable, well sourced and accessible to a audience. Sunrise In Brooklyn ✉ 18:52, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- It’s not really the project improving the articles, it’s you, as the only active member. You don’t need a WikiProject for that. The idea is to get a group together first then create the project. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 05:36, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment would this be better off as a sub-project or task force within Wikipedia:WikiProject Musicians? --Lenticel (talk) 00:19, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Lenticel: speaking as literally the only other person in this WikiProject, I would go as far as to say most WikiProjects about musicians, often being disorganized anyway, should just be task forces under a more encompassing genre or music WP where more people might actually see and attend to the relevant articles .

- Keep: It's only a week old! Other singers have WikiProjects. Zanahary (talk) 01:27, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: We should let the project grow before deleting it... Give it maybe a week.. 𝘮𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘦𝘭'𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺, 03:31, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Merge as a subproject or task force under Wikipedia:WikiProject Musicians. Deletion is a bit harsh IMO and I agree with PSA that it might be able to attract more editors there. --Lenticel (talk) 05:26, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Merge. Agree with above, and tidy discussion. Bduke (talk) 05:29, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment @SunriseInBrooklyn I find it very concerning that you almost word for word copied Wikipedia:WikiProject Lorde’s project layout, and even forgot to change instances of the word. 48JCL[citation needed][dubious – discuss] 20:21, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- @48JCL, what a coincidence, I made that WikiProject also. Sunrise In Brooklyn ✉ 05:58, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Final stance: Week Keep. Let it grow for a bit 48JCL[citation needed][dubious – discuss] 20:29, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
