User:Doug/sandbox User:Doug/Sandbox  User:Doug/Sandbox 2 Discussion of inactive projects -thoughts:


 * So I would tentatively organize the inactive projects more like this:


 * 1. Delete - Spurious projects we wouldn't consider beneficial no matter how many members they had and projects that have never done more than create a Project page with no activity for several months.
 * 2. Userfy and refer editor to WP:COUNCIL/P (but remembering that neither the Guide nor Proposals are policy)- One member projects where the member is actively editing in the topic covered by the project
 * 3. Rename as a task force - Projects with Very few members and a small scope (some very large scope projects have very few members)
 * 4. Mark Historical and either rename as a task force or otherwise suggest where to comment - projects with little activity over an extended period of time that don't fall into any of the above - including most inactive maintenance projects.
 * 5. Mark Inactive - projects of any size with little activity for several months as a sort of yellow light to everyone concerned and to help us track when someone needs to suggest actions 1 though 4.

A template for law? Not really that great, there's better stuff down below.

--comment-- According to the article the United States is eligible as "a group of British Colonies until 1783". Is there a reliable third party source that says that the United States, a federal republic only 13 of the states of which were ever British Colonies (though many other parts were British territory at times) and which also includes French, Spanish, and Russian colonies or territories and one previously autonomous kingdom, that repudiated the Crown and made war against it, is eligible for membership.

Also, as an American, I consider the idea that we were colonies until 1783 POV. During the Revolution the American's carried arms openly, organized a standing army which moved about at will, and operated virtually all of the functions of civil government.

- maybe want to add

Looking for something good/better for WPs I'm involved with - these are just models, I am not necessarily associated with any of them:

- thorough and looks nice, but VERY busy

- this is clearly laid out, easy to make sense of

- cleaner than buddhism and I like the cross outs

- another nicely laid out template

- a more descriptive way to handle it

- even more so
