Closing WP-l, perhaps the oldest and most-subscribed list, while leaving a hundred other unused lists https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Overview, is not sensible.
Instead, we might close all lists with <10 non-administrative messages over the past year, and leave a single [wiki*-l] list, per language, with broader scope. Which scope should include "any topics not covered in other lists", including topics related to wikipedia.

Just close it. Don't forward or merge or anything.
The only useful emails here for the last ten years or so were questions about creating new Wikipedias, and a few days ago I found why: there's a horribly outdated page about adding new languages on Meta, and it points people to this list. I'm working on carefully rewriting that page, so that it points people to be right place (it's not as trivial as it may seem).
But really, that's the only useful thing here. Once that page is gone, there will be nothing at all.
So please, be bold and close this list.

How about [re-]merging the various lower-traffic project mailing lists
into
one, with auto-mod? sj

Really... a good reminder that this list should probably get switched
off,
especially if it's no longer on auto-mod.
