I mostly agree with what you've said.
Just wanted to point out gerrit projects (aka repos) can never be destroyed. so if you e.g. typo or rename a project or kill it 5 days after you started it's still there forever. Only very recently have we even been able to hide projects from project listings in the UI.
Isn't the same basically true of Wiki articles? I understand the desire to keep things tidy, okay. But what would be the big deal about having ten or even a hundred thousand abandoned repositories, so long as they are hidden, and do not clutter the UI? The repositories that would be candidates for deletion are the ones that got no further than an initial stab, and those measure in kilobytes.
