We'll have our weekly office hours today (September 1, 2009) from
20:00-21:00 UTC on #wikimedia-strategy. Details at:
http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_Office_Hours
I suspect we'll have lots to talk about after a really great Wikimania.

Good eyes, Sj. I have to agree - opening a new wiki for every single
project is a terrible idea, as we've learned from quality.wikimedia.org.
Please try to use Meta for this purpose.

Is it time to close the advisory board wiki like we just closed
quality.wikimedia.org? Considering the state you describe, I rather
think so (even qualitywiki wasn't so bad). Content could be moved to

Small wikis need a lot more administrative work per articles than larger
wikis. If there isn't any clear real reason then simply don't make a new
