Dead vs Inactive

Dead, maybe the action for dead wiki is to make the template inactive, not really needing inactive as a stage... not sure, will ponder, look forward to your thoughts on it. Best, MarkDilley

Aha - I didn't want to make any drastic changes – but yes, I agree, we have un-necessary duplication. Category:Dead currently has 270 articles, and Category:Inactive currently has 860 articles. I would personally prefer that the Dead category be kept; as Inactive has the potential to be confused with Category:Dormant. In terms of templates, we currently have both Template:Wiki dead and Template:Inactive – 'Wiki dead' renders a page better than 'Inactive' – the least preferred one can be redirected to the other. Which ever way you wish to proceed with the 1000+ affected articles, you'll need to create a bot account to process all the changes :p --Hoof Hearted 12:16, 8 January 2012 (PST)
