Hello,
I noticed that there are still a lot of open request for closure on Meta
so I decided to contact a LangCom member (Robin) asking him about how
and when the projects will be closed or when the requests will be
closed, but I recieved a answer I didn't expected.
Robin told me there was no policy (
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Closure_of_WMF_projects ) about the
closure of projects so the request can stay open for always.
I think its kind of strange that we people can make a request, that
there are people who are voting and spending there time commenting on
the request or even worse have stress because there project could be
closed but the request will never be closed.
Is there a way to change this with a new policy, or with a different com
for the closure, because this seems to me a waste of time for a lot of
people, people can stop editting projects just because the think the
project will be closed.
At this moment there are 27 request for projects to be closed, (
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposals_for_closing_projects ) I think
50% is a easy closure for keep or close. The oldest project is from 2007
that would mean its still open after 2 years :/
