Slash Dot mention
I've just noticed out project was mentioned on slashdot, a reference of an article written about how we are abandoned (this one). This was dated in December 2016 and shows ridiculous research when one considered we were pretty active then. I'm proposing changing the status to active to prevent this happening again. This project was never abandoned, I still rescue articles and I know many of you do too. Does anyone know who the user who wrote the article is? They said: "A few editors are still listed as active, but most don’t actively edit articles anymore. The few I tried to contact didn’t get back to me. One email address I found bounced back. Many seem to have moved on with their lives." I was never contacted by anyone regarding this project, were you? UaMaol (talk) 07:24, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
