Proposals for closing projects/Closure of zh-min-nan wikibooks

< Proposals for closing projects

The result of the following proposal for closing a WMF project is to KEEP the project. Please, do not modify this page.

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it.

The only activity at the zh-min-nan wikibooks is the index.php spambot which hasn't been cleaned up. Just one legitimate article and one main page (5 pages overall and no images)--Cometstyles 18:52, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I propose to close this discussion in 48 hours for now —Dferg (talk) 18:40, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support closing

edit
  1. Support closure: virtually no content (b:zh-min-nan:Special:Allpages) and no useful recent activity other than protection and spam cleanup.(b:zh-min-nan:Special:Recentchanges). However, I'm willing to reconsider if this changes and someone commits to moving this project forward and keeping it clear of spam. I know that Chun-hian opposes closure (see below) and he/she is very active on zh-min-nan.wikipedia. --A. B. (talk) 17:47, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support closure: almost no content, plus few people prefer Latin expression to Chinese character expression in the Min-nan language.--RekishiEJ 06:21, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Support Absolutely no edit in the Main namespace in the last 90 days (since this proposal). Malafaya 17:07, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Support --Johney 07:29, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Support Per above, and localisation is in pretty bad shape. 35% and not even 100% for read-only. No localisation activity in the past 6 months. Siebrand 16:02, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  6. Support, no activity---Shizhao 07:13, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  7. Support only 5 books --Ilaria 07:05, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  8. Support, Min-nan dialect is rarely represented in Latin form by native speakers. --RekishiEJ 15:03, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  9. Support: no comment.--1j1z2 19:47, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  10. Support per target of spambot. OhanaUnitedTalk page 14:01, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  11. Support, no activity.--Gzdavidwong 17:15, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  12. Support, per Cometstyles, also inactivity. —Dferg (talk) 18:40, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  13. Support but I will reconsider if there is any major activity. I would localize this, but not being fluent in Min-nan, I don't have the ability too. From what I can make of the local Special:Statistics page, it does not seem worthwhile to keep it open at this time - but we could move it to incubator.wikimedia.org (not as a "graveyard", but to see if there is interest) and lock the wiki from editing. --Sunwell5 talk 18:45, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  14. Support Little to no activity. A brief revival of interest from a single user fizzled quickly. A Stop at Willoughby 19:06, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Support --MisterWiki 16:25, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  15. Support --Xqt 07:44, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  16. Support -FASTILY (TALK) 05:18, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
