This project has only 12 members and it never got of the ground. I doubt this project will cover PBS Kids articles, it might better to suited as a task force WikiProject Television. This project was created by a sockpuppet of Simulation12 who has been blocked indefinitely. JJ98 (Talk) 09:41, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- Delete as a non-starter Wikiproject initiated by a blocked user. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 18:45, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- Delete I guess, if it's effectively defunct (although 12 members is rather a lot) and as it's by a banned user. Herostratus (talk) 18:47, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
- This is completely off-topic, but this is the second time recently I've come across reasonable material that needed to be deleted because its by a banned user. To me, I've always associated "blocked indefinitely" with "type of user whose contributions are 'LORRIE SUX DIK' or 'The Canadian cement industry is controlled by the Jews' or whatever". Why are editors whose contributions are things like "create Wikipedia:WikiProject PBS Kids" being blocked indefinitely? This seems like a reasonable person, was there no way to work with him. Sounds like possible evidence of a bug in the system. Of course I don't know the particulars and I'm sure there was a very good reason for banning him, but hmmm.

- I don't know all the details, but it looks like the person was banned for being disruptive in regards to articles related to FETCH! with Ruff Ruffman, which is a PBS Kids show. See discussion at [1]. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:18, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
- Oh, well, FETCH! with Ruff Ruffman, that explains it, of course that's a contentious subject. I got into a knife fight last week with a couple of local hoods over that very subject. Herostratus (talk) 05:54, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
