1) Technically we're in "year 10" so people might still reference it as an "open" matter until January 2012 (eg some kind of "Wikimedia 10 in perspective"). I wouldn't necessarily assume we archive it until then, in case there are any "end of year" stuff people add to it before it's closed. 2) Once it's archival interest only, then close it via bugzilla request - unlikely to be controversial so long as the data is publicly preserved. If we don't have a "Requests to close wikis" page on Meta we probably should create one. 3) Finally, we should devise some kind of canonical naming for old inactive wikis which are being kept for historical/archival interest but are closed to public editing. I'd suggest something like ten.archive.wikimedia.org -- hosting the same content but configured as read-only to all. Then leave ten.wikimedia.org as a one page soft redirect to this wiki. This will not be the only historical "old" wiki and a canonical naming system allows us to handle and index those to come.
