Can you explain why this one should not be deleted? `'Míkka 06:00, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Generally, WikiProjects, "defense squads" (i.e. Article Rescue Squadron, Recent Changes Patrol), and their ilk are not deleted; rather they are tagged as inactive unless there is a good reason why they should be deleted. It's mainly for history purposes. -Jéské ( v^_^v ) 06:06, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I see. Makes sense. `'Míkka 21:36, 17 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Mark as inactive Because of somethin called "institutional memory"--victor falk 20:23, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Tag as inactive, per Template messages/Wikipedia namespace if you want to consider this proposal equivalent to a WikiProject; or tag as historical if you see it in "policies and guidelines" as a call-to-action-with-guidelines essay. No activity in over a year since people cleaned up some poor bits of content in the month after creation; no talk-page activity since just after its creation.  No other project pages.  I read AfD regularly and I don't recall people referring to "AfD Patrol" there or on my talkpage.  Barno 00:06, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
