:No!  We have a long-standing policy here on WikiIndex of not deleting dead wikis.  And whilst this particular wiki may seem 'useless', the article title was chosen because they knew it ''was'' a wiki which was using the [[:Category:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]] software, but no-one new how to translate korean (and it is now too late to translate, because [[Archive.org]] reports the site was overwhealmed by robots)!  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • <sub>[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]]</sub> • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 19:59, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

:: OK, but <u>why including a picture that says: "This wiki is inactive"</u> while we are emtying this cat? Would, if at all the pic not have to say "dead" or "no logo"? I would prefer "nologo" if at all. "inactive" prompt people to change the status in something we do not want.
