 I think, this requires something like [[:Category:Semantik Wiki]] to become the Category which contains [[:Category:Semantic MediaWiki]] [[User:Manorainjan|Manorainjan]] ([[User talk:Manorainjan|talk]]) 19:41, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

+[[ViaWiki]] — the [[Template:Wiki Farm|Farms template]] could use some status line where one can set the status also as archived. I saw that Wikifarms no less than Wikis deteriorate and therefore status should be given.  [[User:Manorainjan|Manorainjan]] ([[User talk:Manorainjan|talk]]) 00:15, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

+:How can you 'archive' a wiki farm?  Sure we can find links at [[Archive.org]] for the 'front page' of the former wiki host, but it is impossible to 'archive' all the individual wikis hosted on said wiki farm, and include those in the [[template:Wiki Farm]]!
+:The 'archived' option should only be used in individual articles using [[template:Wiki]] – be they hosted on a farm or independently.  I do agree that the status of the farm should be included, which is why I added to the template – but the only valid options for a [[wiki farm]] will either be 'active' or 'dead'.  [[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> 09:35, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
