== My two cents about inactive language wikis == As long as feedback is being sought, here is my thoughts on the matter: I think it would be a shame to make even the smallest one of serial vandalscompletely inaccessible, trolls and sockpuppetters of Wikipedia. Basically, I vandalize don't know what you had in the French and a little in Russian sectionmind for archiving them, but unfortunately, to break all the current links wouldn't be my open proxies there are blockedchoice either. However, therefore I could ones that have come herevery few pages or very little activity maybe be "locked down" as inactive until the time that there's sufficient interest to maybe unlock it again. Against your encyclopaedia I don't know if the user accounts have nothing, only to be created foreach language separately, but if all accounts get created through the English version, I could see how this *could* invite spammers to, say, create an account on the English wiki, and then trash one in another language. Secondly, I guess I would also suggest that "sufficient interest" to start/resurrect a language wiki would maybe start with at least 3-5 people, because in my work is two decades on the internet now, I only know of a couple of websites that are truly comprehensive on their subjects and been consistently maintained and updated through the long haul (10+ years) by one person. (The Charley Project and Cyndi's List are the ones thatcome to mind.--) [[User:Katjuscha|Katjuscha]] ([[Usertalk:I am your new vandalKatjuscha|I am your new vandaltalk]] 21) 03:1130, May 3113, 2009 2016 (UTC) :Thanks, Katjuscha. I do think there is some degree of responsibility to preserve work done by people in the community. I would not like any good contribution to go to waste. On the other hand, each localization comes with some maintenance overhead, and pruning makes for a better overall user experience. Right now, I am thinking that at least IT and TL should be archived. Of course, they could be reconstituted if there is sufficient interest. — [[User:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] ([http://orthodoxwiki.org/index.php?title=User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit&section=new talk])
