Worldwide Trams Wiki talk:Cleanup

When I first had a look at the size of this page I was a little confused. But when I took a closer look I noticed that it is an exact copy of the Wikipedia article, with all the links to the cleanup articles from Wikipedia. In my opinion this page is a farce and a complete waste of valuable wiki space. I want to start a discussion on the need of this kind of articles. So I'm asking for a reaction from other members of the Tram Wiki.

The idea of this page is good, but not in the way it is implemented right now. As on the London Underground, I'm urging for an closer look on articles before they are uploaded. I think it's possible to set up a great wiki, but not if all the new articles are tagged with a "need attention" template. Maybe it's better to start new pages with a "stub" link so that members can fill in new info, than that they have to delete more than half of the non relevant Tram info.
