I don't see how Atlantis is adding from the community either, but I don't see how it's removing from the community. I don't think Atlantis should be removed yet, they actually have content, unlike Delteria.
I'm not sure that AEON generates a steady player count more than a steady staff count, but AEON is probably ready for classic depending on the content they have. I know I have seen their under construction content and it's quite nice.

I'm not sure approval is a great idea, it'll lead to delays and it's generally a repressive measure. Notification would be nice, so the PWA has a general knowledge of how active the worlds are in adding content.
Besides, approval doesn't tackle the real issue: that there is a lack of talent in the right locations or creativity/motivation to create new content. If we're to best serve the players, I think you'd need to allow such new content to go straight to the players.
With regard to Forgiven's comments: I agree! Not sure about Atlantis, for the same reasons as others here. But if Delteria has nothing, it should be gone. Not sure if it's been suggested, but when I was PWA informing Stefan of such things usually led to a quick removal if there were no signs of imminent life.
Just a general Graal comment: I wish they'd put 3D on hold and make a really good official playerworld for classic. I know it goes against the whole Gold subscription numbers, but that's a separate issue. We need good cheap content (and I know Gold is cheap in comparison to pay monthly MMORPGs) but the customers obviously don't fully agree - or at least need to be convinced.
