Is this a taskforce of WikiProject Google? Your destination location suggests so... -- 76.65.131.160 (talk) 12:27, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

  • Only 75 articles, not 100. This may work better as a task force for WikiProject Internet culture. Brambleberry of RiverClan Mew ♠ Tail 17:31, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

;Why do you want to start a new group, instead of joining one of these existing groups?

  1. --- :D Derry Adama (talk) 04:58, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
  2. Great proposal! I support the creation on a YouTube WikiProject, but probably not join it. Cheers though! CookieMonster755 (talk) 17:39, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
  3. Support, ever growing profession which would be better suited with a structural base for organization. Will most likely join.. GuzzyG (talk) 22:41, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
  4. YouTube is a growing and important place in modern world. The pages about YouTube need new guidelines in many cases. Furthermore, there is a WikiProject YouTube in the German Wikiepdia too, which works quite active. Because my main activity is at the German Wikiepdia, I won't join. --MGChecker (talk) 00:54, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
  5. I don't think a YouTube only project is a valid one, however if this would cover all online created shows (YouTube, Netflix, webshows, etc) I would support that. Looking at the scope of WP:WPIC, it doesn't seem like its part of it. --Gonnym (talk) 21:01, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
  6. Support, great idea, YouTube has many topics about it and similar WikiProjects are successful. I would most certainly join. --Yonikasz (talk) 18:32, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
  7. Support. Will eventually join. --Fadesga (talk) 01:57, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
  8. Support, the wikiproject starts now.--RokkZtar (talk) 21:58, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

= Oppose =

  1. I don't think that it's a good idea to create this wikiproject. Interested editors should go to "Internet", "Internet culture" or "Google", which seem to have few members. --NaBUru38 (talk) 00:04, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
  2. Oppose if it is just going to be a place to promote YouTube personalities, there is little use if any for that kind of thing in an encyclopedia. — {{U|Technical 13}} (e • t • c) 16:33, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
  3. 'Oppose - make it a subsection of the Internet culture WikiProject. --☣Anarchyte☣ 06:44, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
