What is considered "Major"? Looking at http://organofcorti.blogspot.com/ the current "categories" are pools over 20%, some around 10% and the big majority is below 5%. Why have that separation Major/Active to begin with? "Major" is not necessary a good thing in a decentralised network. If there is no objections, I would change it to Active/Defunct only.

Maybe we should consider grouping them by network share? Active/Defunct only would be okay. I have to think however that most users would prefer to join an established, powerful pool (which is not necessarily a good thing). Taras (talk) 01:54, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
I agree on active/defunct being enough. We always can link to pages like http://blockorigin.pfoe.be/chart.php (outdated actually...) or organofcorti's blog, as the information on the top pools changes quicker than this wiki is edited. ^^ Newar (talk) 17:37, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
