How should we phase out the Site Proposals category?

+3
−0

Currently the old Site Proposals category points to the new Proposals community, presumably as a temporary measure until people get used to the new community. This is not ideal, as described in the last paragraph of Discoverability for the new Proposals site.

What is the best way to approach removing the old Site Proposals category?

  • To what extent should old proposals be preserved, even if they haven't been transferred to the new Proposals community, or haven't had any recent activity?
  • Should existing links to old proposals continue to work?
  • Should the authors/followers of old proposals be notified and be given time to migrate before losing access?
  • Should there be any automatic migration?
  • What other considerations have I overlooked?

  • Should existing links to old proposals continue to work?
  • Should the authors/followers of old proposals be notified and be given time to migrate before losing access?
  • Should there be any automatic migration?

Why should these not be preserved/handled?

I don't have reasons for or against. I've started a Meta discussion so that people can answer with any reasons, positive or negative, for or against these or any other questions they think of.
