I dissagree, we need more good material about Gibraltar not stupid templates. --Gibnews 11:11, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't take the template as an "in your face" sort of thing. It is simply a way to tag together related subject articles. Regards, Asterion^talk 10:53, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

This is a vanity project created by one editor without any proposal or consultation and who does not have any connection with Gibraltar. It exists only as a 'tit-for-tat' answer to project Spain and it only creates needless confrontation. The real solution is to deal with overtagging from that and reduce the real estate occupied by templates. If everyone did it Wikipedia would become unworkable. --Gibnews 12:04, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Nonsense. There's more than enough scope for the WikiProject - I've tagged 151 articles so far and there are certainly more that could be tagged. The vast majority need substantial improvement - many are stubs, only a few cite sources, etc. If you don't want to participate in the project, fine, but please don't try to undermine it. -- ChrisO 17:21, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, I joined the wikiproject thinking that it seemed a sensible enough thing to do having been a part of other wikiprojects ( and found them useful as ways of centralising work on articles, requesting help etc. But if it's just going to be a focus for edit warring and such then that a shame. I'll keep an eye on this and see what happens. Robotforaday 22:32, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

The only reason to create it was to give some credibility to including the project Spain template with its national symbol, on Gibraltar pages. Its presence will cause endless edit wars. --Gibnews 19:26, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
