Not in keeping with WP:NOT OR,#2, which states:
Personal inventions. If you or a friend invented the word frindle, a drinking game, or a new type of dance move, it is not notable enough to be an article until multiple, independent, and reliable secondary sources report on it. Wikipedia is not for things made up one day.
Nice idea, but policy doesn't support it. --Naluboutes,NalubotesAeria Gloris,Aeria Gloris 14:01, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- Keep: The policy cited regarding personal inventions concerns Wikipedia articles, pages in the mainspace. This is not an article but a project page. See Wikipedia:Department of Fun and Wikipedia:Wikipediholism test for other examples of games invented by Wikipedians and preserved in Wikipedia space. ♠TomasBat 14:28, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- Keep TomasBat has it right above. The original research policy regards article space, not WP:Project namespace. Nearly every page starting with "Wikipedia:" is something original created specifically for Wikipedia. Equazcion (talk) 17:57, 18 Feb 2010 (UTC)
- Keep; WP:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought's second point does not apply to Wikipedia space. —Jeremy (v^_^v Boribori!) 20:15, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- Keep per the fact that this is a projectspace page and is not eligible for deletion under that policy. Besides, it is clearly stated that this is a fundraiser project for the Wikimedia Foundation, so I wouldn't particularly see the deletion of this page as productive. ♠ 03:25, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
- Keep All WikiProjects are personal inventions, and the quoted policy only applies to articles. Certes (talk) 11:54, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
- Speedy keep - Wikipedia is a community. Kayau Voting IS evil 13:15, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
- Speedy keep - This obviously isn't an article. —C Teng(talk) 01:13, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- Speedy keep - Anyone can tell this isn't an article, but a project page -- AquaTeen13 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 21:39, 24 February 2010 (UTC).
