What does it mean for a quiz to be retired?

Retired quizzes are quizzes that were verified and published to the Sporcle home page, but are no longer actively updated and maintained by Sporcle staff. Retired quizzes are still considered 'published', but full editing control has been returned to the quiz creator for any updates they may need in the future.

A quiz may be retired if its source data is no longer available, if the content of the quiz was specific to a certain point in time, or for other reasons determined by the publishing team.
