Back in July, MF-Warburg proposed that these projects could be "deleted" by simply redirecting the urls appropriately:
* mo.wik*.org > ro.wik*.org * For now, als projects to the appropriate page of als.wikipedia.org, even if als.wikipedia.org will eventually be moved to gsw.wikipedia.org
This was the approach preferred because the developers were reluctant from a technical perspective to truly delete the databases. Nobody on LangCom commented further about that, so there was no closure. So I'm going to start a seven-day clock here: Unless there are objections, after seven days I'm going to mark those requests closed as "successful", with the implementation being accomplished through redirecting the urls. Then MF-W (possibly with help from me) will work through the implementation with the developers. Steven

This wont be necessary, the “objection period“ for Langcom is already long over, as you mentioned (and I am very slow). As closures/deletions have to be approved by the Board as well, I have now explicitly mailed our Board liaison James Heilman about these requests (though I believe he reads the list as well, it used to be the best practice that the closing langcom member - back when we last closed projects - sent a specific mail for the Board to start the period for getting their possible Veto).
