So we're done evaluating all the pages, and we even presented a nice fancy list of what we were doing with each Sue. Now some questions arise.

1. What are we going to do with actual deletion?

Neshomeh had a good idea on that, and I'd like to see what the rest of the community thinks of that.

2. What are we going to do with the pages that need work?

That's an excellent question, to which I have no answer. Tawaki at least is still around; perhaps he should work on improving the ones of his that need work? Other than that, if a page we're keeping has no link, and we have a link, that should probably be added. Still, I don't really know what to do with the pages that need improvement whose creators are no longer active.

3. What are we going to do about adding pages in the future?

Obviously, the community needs to weigh in on this one. There are a few options; either strict, clear rules, some kind of deciding body, or perhaps a simple peer nomination process. I'm sure there are more I'm not thinking of, and I'd love suggestions. A poll should probably be created to vote on this issue.
