Hello, Actually the policy allows closing projects "which don't have content or existing content is insignificant" (type one). In this case, mgwikibooks falls under that clause totally in my opinion: - only one editor has been somewhat active there for 10 years and has not really objected to the

We can lock and leave the "content" there and inform people that if they wish to contribute further they can start a test project on the Incubator if that's okay. 2018-03-21 15:33 GMT+01:00 Gerard Meijssen : > Hoi, > Having a project locked is different from having it
