I was thinking of taking [[Apologetics Wiki]] and adding it to a birth category (perhaps 2009 March births?)[http://www.apologetics-wiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page&dir=prev&limit=7&action=history].

When is a wiki's status no longer New? When it is three months old? Seven months old? --EarthFurst 19:45, 24 October 2009 (EDT)
- I agree, it's a silly cat. "A wiki that's just gone live with no content" - that's how they all start. Huw Powell 23:00, 24 October 2009 (EDT)

- I'd like to keep New category. I think it is a reasonable way of letting people know of a wiki that relatively New and is thus probably a wiki they haven't looked at and probably needs more contributions. I was thinking of taking Apologetics Wiki and adding it to a birth category (perhaps 2009 March births?)[1]. I think a wiki should lose New status when (a) after seven months (so Apologetics Wiki would lose its New status in November (1 month old in April, 2 months old in May, 3 in June, 4 in July, 5 in Aug, 6 in Sept and 7 in October) or (b) it gets big enough (more than 100 articles?) --EarthFurst 01:58, 25 October 2009 (EDT)
