Removing modules from Drupal.org
I have two ideas for Drupal modules a couple of years ago and immediately reserved the namespace for them at http://drupal.org/project/ariel and http://drupal.org/project/caliban. I've only just been reminded of these projects, and I now don't have the time to develop the ideas or write the code. How can I got about getting the projects removed from Drupal.org?
You cannot delete content on Drupal.org. I'd say just add a note to the project page saying that the project page is available, and that anyone who wants it can have it. On Apr 16, 2012 7:36 PM, "James Benstead" <james.benstead@gmail.com> wrote:

I believe it is possible to delete project nodes; is there some other technical reason they *aren't* deleted I am unaware of? /Robin On Mon, Apr 16, 2012 at 10:44 PM, Cameron Eagans <cweagans@gmail.com> wrote:

I thought they could be deleted if there are no releases or downloads. I would post an issue in the webmasters queue: http://drupal.org/project/issues/webmasters On 4/16/2012 10:21 PM, Robin Monks wrote:

Projects with code aren't generally deleted for community reasons more than technical reasons. Deleted projects leave interested people with nowhere to contribute. As the projects mentioned here don't have any code in them, they can probably be deleted, or maybe just unpublished. The way to do that is to open an issue in the webmasters queue: http://drupal.org/project/webmasters -- Scott Reynen Sliced Bread Labs On 4/16/12 9:21 PM, Robin Monks wrote:

In the edit tab you can set Vocabularies "Unsupported" and "Obsolete". Also remove any Module Categories you may have set. -- Earnie -- https://sites.google.com/site/earnieboyd
You could also file an issue at webmasters queue, as stated before by Scott Reynen. On 4/17/12 3:44 PM, Earnie Boyd wrote:
