Wikipedia talk:Overview of Germany project pages

I moved this to Wikipedia namespace, because it does not belong in article namespace. Angr (talk • contribs) 08:53, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Inactive Wikiprojects

Do we have to list them all on this page, with a TOC entry? There seem to be so many of them, which makes the German community look a lot less alive than it is. Kusma (討論) 14:58, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Is there any other way of finding them? Perhaps we could just have a link to that. But if there is no other way for people to stumble over them, without being invited, it seems useful to put them somewhere. After all, one reason they are inactive may be that people don't know about them. I had no idea they existed and only found them by using Google and searching for "project" and "german" on the wikipedia site.

One thing I myself find a bit annoying about wikipedia is the lack of site maps and comprehensive overviews. When you start out, you can find yourself clicking on links to "German translation", "translation from German", "German translating" etc, discovering they are all in fact the same page and going round in circles without getting any clear idea of what is going on.

But perhaps just a list or something would be enough. Saint|swithin 15:35, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

I would just like to see the active projects separated well enough from the dead one-man projects that just clutter up project space, or the projects (like "German districts") that are essentially done. By the way, I found the Prussian ones by using [1]. Maybe we should include some suggestions how to reactivate the old projects -- possibly by going through Wikipedia:Wikiproject/List of proposed projects. But I think this page is more useful if it concentrates on projects that work NOW, instead of on old stuff: anybody posting to one of the inactive project pages will only be frustrated.
