Board Thread:Wiki Maintenance/@comment-26762908-20160826000729

So, the high amount of bad articles in this wiki is nothing new to us. Many policies were created, such as WC's old list and B.A.S.S. While those two have actually been quite helpful to get rid of some of this wiki's trash, we still need something more powerful. While this won't replace B.A.S.S (B.A.S.S will help it by finding some bad articles and helping people to fix them), this will give us the firepower to reduce this wiki's bad content to a minimum. We will call this Deletion Day.

During this day, admins will delete a certain amount of articles that meet our criteria. Users, however, will have the rest of the week to improve the articles they think have potential. And plus, if you think you could improve an article deleted during this day, nothing blocks you from asking an admin to revive it. I hope this means one day fixing articles won't be such a chore as it is now.

So, the reason I'm raising this thread is to discuss a few things:


 * Whether or not Deletion Day should be a policy


 * Which day of the week should this take place?


 * How many articles are we going to delete each Deletion Day?
