The resulting WikiProject was created at Wikipedia:WikiProject East Anglia
Description edit
Like wikiproject Essex this project will cover villages, Transport and lots more but all to do will Suffolk, Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. Rutland county may also be included but it is not in East Anglia. I read the notes on Essex so if you make a project with 3 counties it is far more likely to get through and do some work. Essex got through so should East Anglia. If I get a good amount of support I will make the project. Wilbysuffolk talk 02:08, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion edit
Wikipedia:WikiProject Essex has only got 5(4 members User:~~With love; MikeyMand :)~~ is now blocked) members. Will you be able to get them to sign up to East Anglia? --Kleinzach 10:44, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I will talk to them about the new wikiproject. Wilbysuffolk talk 06:22, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Could merge the two? -- Thomas888b (Say Hi) 08:09, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Essex is big and has thousands of articales therefor I think Essex should be seperate. Essex is also not known to be in East Anglia as the county goes as far south as london. Wilbysuffolk talk 05:36, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Would it be better to create an 'East of England' WikiProject? This is both an official UK region and a European Parliamentary Constituency. We should at least consider the pros and cons of East Anglia and the East of England.
The larger region is more likely to attract the high level of support needed for a WikiProject to succeed and there already exist WikiProjects for some of the other regions (North East and West Midlands). --Chris Jefferies (talk) 09:50, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I will hopfully merge it to Essex when I finish it as Thomas888b agrees and he is the maker of Essex. Wilbysuffolk Talk to me 21:20, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
