Or at a minimum widely advertised as needing community effort to keep active?There are a handful of very active members who put in a lot of work and effort; it isn't just a vacant lot full of weeds and bricks, which would make the decision easy. We never did get a "meta" site set up, so there's not really a great place to have this discussion (which is why I'm having it here). I guess I'll start a discussion there with the [meta] tag.
As a thought to add to this, it would be nice to have a place for people interested in Ask Fedora to congregate and discuss. Before I was involved now, I had joined #fedora-ask in 2014 because I had considered looking into if I could help moderate or help the platform, but the channel was mostly fedmsg notifications.
My point is, I think there may be people outside of the normal contributor periphery who may want to assist with Ask, but there's no effective means for people who wish to help to do so. This may not be relevant for Infrastructure, but some helpful steps I could see to bringing contributor focus into Ask is starting by providing a place and means for people who want to help to do so.
One part of me says "there aren't enough contributors actively helping here to justify having it as a resource", but another part sees the great value in the fedmsg integration with Ask and how it does bring people and contributors *into* the project community.
