Best Practices: List Maintenance & Hygiene

Hi all,

Any orgs have working best practices around cleaning up Lists that they'd be willing to share?

I've always let the lists pile up without worrying too much about them, but recently I've had users asking me to mass inactivate their lists.  It's led me to wonder if I should/could delete them?  Or, more safely, dump them all into an Archived folder?

Interested to hear what others are doing, if anything?  What about when staff leave?  Do you reassign their lists?

Thanks,

Frannie

    We let them pile up from 2008-2014, at which point we agreed to delete all Extractions that haven't been promoted in 13 months, and all Lists when they are created/last modified in more than 24 months in the past.

    We've had a scheduled job running with those parameters for over a year now, with no complaints.
