:::I think this 'Abandoned' has a real prospect.  We must really wait for out esteemed leader (along with the rest of the admin team) to have their say though.
:::Regarding the 'inactive' vs 'dead' - there are problems with both - and I don't think we have reached a satisfactory resolution.  Mark prefers to use <code>{{tl|inactive}}</code>, but this has (IMVHO) disatrous consquences (it basically strips out all categorisation from the former infobox).  And the <code>{{tl|wiki dead}}</code> template is very untidy.  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Hoof Hearted]] • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 13:47, 14 September 2012 (PDT)

Where does one draw the line between dormant and active? There are some wikis with not much activity other than a continual battle against spam. They keep the spam down but don't accomplish much else. This chart has no middle ground between dormant and active, though; there are a lot of wikis with low, but greater than zero, activity.
