A spectre is haunting Wikipedia, and that spectre is WP:WikiProject. Hundreds of the over 2000 WikiProjects present on Wikipedia are either inactive, or semi-active. Many WikiProjects overlap in scope and cause confusion for editors who seek to collaborate on a topic, or seek help from others familiar with the topic.
WikiStalin is the proposed solution to this problem. WikiStalin will solve this problem with a swift, authoritative fist. It will not only bring editors together to revitalize the discussion of topics, but it will also free up the shortcuts being used by WikiProjects for use elsewhere.
