The recent Open Discussion has made it abundantly clear that this issue remains a problem. It's about time we abolished the policy so that we can make changes to it without having to worry about WikiLaw being involved.

Mind you, abolishing this policy does NOT mean that we would necessarily get rid of the Ghost Town status. It simply means that the community would be able to edit it or replace it with something more useful if they felt that a change of that sort was warranted. Aichon 18:45, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

Only Ghost Towns were a policy, so you can still do what you were planning. The rest were created and maintained the normal way. From what I can gather, it sounds like there was a lot of edit warring over status that were empty, so Ghost Towns were forced through as a policy to address the issue.
