We all know what these are. Pages that lack information in one way or another. They'll feature a general structure, but otherwise contain no text to describe what each section represents or any general content in these sections at all. They'll sometimes have an "Under Construction" template, or feature text like "TBA" or "Coming soon", despite having not been touched in months, or even years. Without any summary or general information to go off of, no one can even add to the articles, and due to the absence of the user who created the page, they can't even ask what they're plans were for the article.

Normally these pages would be deleted on other wikis. But, and this is only if you're willing, if you wish, any article that is 6 months old and older, that lacks content, and the user has been inactive since then or more, they are up to be adopted by an active user who can make the article into whatever they wish. The original creator has no say, as they were not around and had been inactive for 6 months or longer without a word as to whether or not they'd be back. Once the adoption is complete, the user is to place a property tag with their name on it on the page. If they fail to make something of the article within 30 days, it will be discussed on whether or not it will be deleted, or if someone else will adopt it. After 30 days and nothing has been made of the article, but the adopter still wishes to do so, they will be given a 10 day grace period to write up an outline and summary of the article. If they fail to do so after 5 days, every day until the 10th will they be notified of the coming deletion if they do not. On the 11th day, the article will be deleted without notification, and will not be restored. If you manage to come up with something after its deletion, you are to make a new page. Requesting for the original page's restoration will be ignored, and any user who continues to pester an admin about restoring it will be blocked for spam. Severity of the block depends on how persistent they continue to be.

That is all for today, thank you for your time.
