The HTTPS transition was a bit different in that it was something that had to be done else things would break. Barring Monobook-only scripts, most code in scripts to support the skin is minor (it often is as simple as an additional selector in a jQuery append), and such code may still be useful for anyone using scripts from here on other MediaWiki sites - all of my own scripts here, for example, are fully compatible with vanilla MediaWiki (except the Wikia-specific ones, of course!).

References to Monobook in templates and doc pages, on the other hand, might as well be removed, since they're of no use any more.

Regarding Monobook-only scripts, I personally prefer to remove them from current lists/categories and archive them in some way - I'm not a big fan of deleting otherwise good content. Old code can still be a reference in the future, and it's not like we have some limit on number of pages on the wiki.
