Lane, there is no such record keeping now on lists with active admins.
Simply put, there is no value to such a list. Many WMF mailing lists get
100-200 or more spams a *day* in their moderation queues - many of these
inactive lists have thousands of spams in them, and there's no value in
publishing the spam.
Sorry, but just...no.

Hello,
I oppose as stated.
I would support the proposal with the modification that there is reporting
of deletions. The report should say which moderation queue is cleared, when
the emails were deleted, and how many emails were deleted.
Deletion is useful if we have a record of what is being deleted. Deletion
is not useful, and more likely harmful, if we get no feedback of what is
deleted. If a report of what is deleted is too much to ask then say
something more about why that is the case.
yours,

Removing the symptoms is not the best approach.
Orphaned lists should
have new moderators appointed shortly or should be closed.
Agreed. Though i think it's not an "either-or" kind of thing but we
should do both. The question is though how to define "orphaned" list.
We would need some criteria, then a script that detects them and
somehow notifies us, or even better just creates tickets.
