 * This would likely require an RfC to amend our Dormancy Policy and as such, is out-of-scope for SRE. Apologies but do feel free to express your thoughts on the Community noticeboard to receive feedback from others.  Agent Isai  Talk to me! 19:14, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Steward comment in regards to Agent Isai's closing comments: As far as my understanding goes, this actually is codified into Dormancy Policy where the default Main Page remains and there's been no edits elsewhere, they are eligible for accelerated deletion within thirty (30) calendar days. However, based on what Reception123 told me, it was never implemented for mainly technical reasons. Dmehus (talk) 22:15, 31 December 2021 (UTC)}}

Proposed by GTrang

Proposal summary: Wikis where the only edit (including deleted ones) is the default Main Page creation with oldid=1 should be automatically deleted after a month (rather than six months).

Full proposal: If one is not making progress on the wiki, then what is the point of keeping it for six months, wasting server space? The people wishing to build the wiki could be procrastinating, and if so, the automatic deletion bot would also be procrastinating. Instead, the automatic deletion bot should not procrastinate for far longer than necessary.
