Hoi,
To be honest, it is not the task of the language committee to kill of
projects. At best we may "recommend". At that we strongly urge the
Wikimedia Foundation to rename a few projects that are incorrectly named.
This does not happen as it does not have the needed priority.
Also, there are always people who one way or another want the language
committee to do whatever. That is fine but it does not mean that the
language committee can do much more than its remit.
Thanks,
GerardM

The community is getting impatient that LangCom is
leaving so many items
in limbo, especially the Beta Wikiversity proposal. (See
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Closing_projects_
policy#This_is_not_working.) That proposal passed its fourth anniversary
in the last week! In April, you discussed this question, and seemed on the
verge of approving the closure—but then the discussion was stopped, and no
action was taken.
There are currently four proposals that have been open for two years or
longer, and another two that have been open for over a year. I strongly
urge you to take action at least on those, lest the community step in and
make its own decisions. As a reminder these are:
- Move Beta Wikiversity to Incubator
- Deletion of Moldovan WIkipedia and Wiktionary (two
separate proposals) (already closed and locked)
- Deletion of Marshallese projects (already closed and locked)
- Closure of Limburgish and Bosnian Wikibooks (two proposals)
I'd venture to say that there is no groundswell insisting on the
Marshallese, Limburgish or Bosnian proposals, and you could easily close
those proposals as "not done" with little fanfare. The others I cannot
really comment on.
