Proposals for closing projects/header

This page hosts proposals for closing down existing Wikimedia Foundation projects, and provides a forum for discussing the relevant arguments for or against these proposals.

Please list each proposal on a separate subpage, and make sure that you add in details to explain why you think the project is no longer useful to the Wikimedia Foundation, links to where the project is currently working at, and links to any discussions prior to its being listed on this page. Do not forget to warn the project itself and/or its language community in Wikimedia in the best possible way and add a link to it in the proposal. Proposals with no fair warnings to the projects will be ignored.

These pages are for discussion. Providing reasons after your votes is encouraged and appreciated.

If this is not the first time a project has been nominated for closure, please compare prior discussions to the current situation and circumstances. Experience shows that repeating a failed proposal wouldn't work.
