House keeping
Creating channels - careful consideration should be given to creating channels to ensure it is the appropriate time (usually when comm’s have grown great enough that it is polluting an existing channel).
Archiving channels - when in doubt--ARCHIVE! Anything business related should be archived. Archived projects can be reopened, but loses users previously subscribed.
Deleting channels - when in doubt--ARCHIVE! Anything not related to business can be deleted. For instance, #actv-fun-picnic2020 can be deleted after the event, unless someone believes it contains information/contacts/discussions useful to reference prior to next year’s picnic. For instance, I wish I knew what beer distributor we used for last year’s picnic.
User and group maintenance needs to be included in onboarding/offboarding procedures.
