Default Allotment waiting lists

I assume the person from 2004 doesn't actually want a plot anymore but
has been left on in case they change their mind. (Have had a couple of
people say this - that they want to be on the waiting list but don't
want a plot right now. I assume it's because it's not looking like a
plot right now...)

What do you do on your allotment site to keep the waiting list up to
date?

Allotments are an expensive hobby. They have stupid rents, I feel sure
most people must lose money not save money.
Why not see if you can use a neighbour's garden on a share cropping
basis?
