Why delete them?  Aren't we supposed to be the SF resource for people?  In particular, it seems that SF fiction should be kept.

Clean up dead wood, at least one of those has 0 content, most have close to nothing but a few discussion threads. There is no real need and they can continue to linger in limbo. I did find one project that has been abandoned a long time that I thought I might dust its material off and do a write up for the zine though.

And this site isn't really set up to delete projects.  It was attempted once and caused all sorts of problems.  And that was for the guy that wrote the code that runs the site.  I don't know that I'd really want to mess with it.

You could email the project owners about it... give them a month or two to reply then delete.

But as you say Terl... or do people call you TO?  If you don't wanna its not a big deal either.

They could use some organizing (grouping them by categories, for example), with a few consolidating of redundant Projects, but I do not support deleting project with any content to them. Most of them maybe dead today, but in the future they may serve some use.
