*Is a stub that cannot/has not be/been expanded for a certain period of time (ie 2 months?)

How long?[edit]

Wondering how long to keep a VFD page on here, before deciding whether or not to delete. I was gonna go for a week, since it seems reasonable (and there's little activity on the current VFD after 6 days). Agree/disagree? --Lex (talk - contribs) 07:23, 14 May 2008 (EDT)

A week sounds reasonable. Although with this few contributors, we could just about do a roll call... --Bry 07:28, 14 May 2008 (EDT)
I'd previously raised this question and gone with 2 weeks (my own thoughts) in lieu of anyone else replying but I'll give my reasoning again. On a busier wiki I believe a shorter time is needed, in order for faster turn over as more pages need reviewing. However here, due to this being a small wiki at this stage I think we need longer in order to give everyone time to weigh in. Its harder sometimes to reach a consensus with less people. Particularly if 2 or 3 take a wiki-break for a week or so. Thats my 2c but I don't really mind so long as a decision is reached. :) I'd say the current vote could be acted on since most(all?) of the active contributors have voted now. ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 11:47, 14 May 2008
I'm still in favor of a week, but it's been two since "WikiProject:Hardware vs. Software" went on the block, so I'll swing the axe. --Bry 19:37, 22 May 2008 (EDT)
Thanks, Bry. I've been meaning to, but JoCopedia isn't high on my priority list right now, I'm afraid. --Lex (talk - contribs) 15:30, 23 May 2008 (EDT)
