Changing the name of the template to Inactive is all that's needed. The other information doens't need to be removed!

Maybe this would be better named 'Offline', otherwise it could be interpreted as a label for a wiki which is not very active ...still too late now really. -- [[User:Harry Wood|Harry Wood]] 14:34, 2 Mar 2006 (EST) | Maybe this would be better named 'Offline', otherwise it could be interpreted as a label for a wiki which is not very active ...still too late now really. -- [[User:Harry Wood|Harry Wood]] 14:34, 2 Mar 2006 (EST) | ||

: It's never too late! :-) Of course it'll be a big job to convert existing records from inactive to offline, but we could make a note on category inactive saying that template is deprecated and link to offline, and make a new offline template that's identical to inactive. You might want to put this on the [[:Category:Proposals|Proposals]] page.

Thinking about Dead, Offline, WikiPassedOn or keep Inactive ... | |||
:'Inactive' could mean the wiki is in some temporary transition - maybe something like<br><tt>'ThisWasOnceAFineWikiWithLotsOfEiting-ButIGotBored/ChangedJob/GotANewGirlfriend/MovedToAKibutz/GotRunOverByABus/Couldn'tAffordTheServerFees-ButNowIGotMyselfSorted/PaidMyDebt/KickedTheServerTires/Went2TheGym-WillRestartTheWikiIn2015'</tt> . . . Ambiguation and cryptic are bad . . . clarity is good. If a wiki is definately gone for good - then 'Dead' is probably the best terminology . . .
