How can i remove projects tab - github

Is it possible to remove the Projects tab like I can remove the issue tab? Because we don't really use the Projects tab , nor the issue tab.

According to this GitHub issue post it doesn't seem that it is possible to remove the projects tab just like the pull requests tab. Github should make a setting where you can definitely remove this tab, as many repositories aren't using this new feature Github got going on. I'm going to contact GitHub contact page shortly to get ahold of this issue.
As of 10/28/2016
They said this will be considered as one of the top priorty for Github Developers as said in thier statement:
Hi!
I have a question on how to delete the projects tab from your github repository. Is this possible? Can you guys implement this any time soon? I already have asked a question here about it : How can i remove projects tab , and there is also a github issue about it. If you can inform me more that will be helpfull :-)
This is not possible currently. Thanks for the suggestion though! I have added it to our list for our team to consider.
Thanks,
GitHub Staff
Sadly , as of right now its not possible to delete the project tab :( .

Note: since March 24th, 2017, this seems possible.
See "Disabling projects" from Ayman Nadeem (aymannadeem):
Users with admin privileges on a repository can disable Projects by navigating to that repository's settings and unchecking the "Projects" box.
Similarly, organization owners can disable Projects by navigating to an organization's settings and clicking "Projects" in the sidebar.
On this page, unchecking the "Enable Projects for the organization" box will disable organization-wide Projects, and unchecking the "Enable Projects for all repositories" box will disable Projects for all repositories in the organization.
Disabling Projects:
hides the Projects tab from the repository and organization navigation,
removes Projects from Issue and Pull Request sidebars, and
hides Project-related events from Issue timelines.
Disabled Projects are also inaccessible via API requests.

Hidden repository on github website, which I contributed but now I do not use anymore and I want to hide them

Hidden repository on github.com website, which I contributed (open an issue, forked).
But now I do not use them anymore and I want to hide them, these repositories are not necessary
Thanks.
In 2019, the policy was that GitHub would clear out those repositories for you after 4 month of "non-interaction" (no issue or PR opened by you on that other repository)
That must have changed, because I have in my own "Recent Repositories" list very old external archived repositories, which are still listed.
So far, there is no way to control that list.

Cannot create GitHub project board: no "Projects" tab at the top

Step 2 of this guide claims that there is a "Projects" tab under each repository's name at the top. I do not see this tab for any of my repositories (example here).
EDIT
Projects are already activated in Settings.
1. Is the tab enabled?
Maybe the "Projects" tab is disabled in the repository settings.
Try to go to Settings > Options and under Features, check Projects to enable the tab, as seen in the screenshot below.
2. Have you checked your add-ons?
It is possible that your browser has an add-on/extension that changes GitHub's interface.
Try to disable Refined GitHub that removes the tab when there is no project linked to your repository. Also try to disable your ad-blocker, theme manager (Stylish), etc.

EGit not working after switching my workspace

I have recently switched to a new workspace and have been unable to get some of the EGit functionalities to run since.
For example, when I right click and choose "Compare with", I now only have "Revision" and "Local History" as options - the "Commit" option is gone. The same goes for right clicking "Replace with".
Clicking on "Team" after right-clicking no longer produces the "Show in History" option.
The annotations on the right, which show which line of code has been added by who, also no longer shows.
I am sure that there are some more functionalities that I have lost since changing my workspace, but these were the most common ones that I used.
Anyway, my question would be if anyone has any tips on what I need to do in order to get these options back. I've searched the Eclipse and EGit documentations and boards, but have not had much luck.
You need to add the repositories you are working with to make EGit aware of them. In the Repositories view, select the Add existing repository tool button from the top of the view and choose the repositories in which your projects are stored.
Afterwards, you may need to Share the projects with their respective repositories (see What does the option "Auto share projects located in git repository" of EGit mean?). Then you should be set up again.

How to show the "Repositories contributed to" on github

One of our team member create a repository and all other team member can push their own work to this repository. It seems that, under the tab "Contributions" there should be two kinds of directory: "Popular repositories" and "Repositories contributed to". I push my work to this repository from the user Interface of Eclipse. But in the home page of my github, directory "Repositories contributed to" was not shown up and all my push history can only be seen in the "Public activity". How can I make "Repositories contributed to" shown up so others can see my contribution to the team work? Thanks a lot!
This is the best workaround I have found so far, not a direct solution but could be used as a workaround:
You can see the contributions you have made to a repo with:
https://github.com/{REPO_OWNER}/{REPO_NAME}/commits?author={USER_ID}
So in your profile, you could put hyperlinks to the repos with that. E.g.,:
Contributed to [Caffe][1] and [OpenCV][2]
[1]: https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/commits?author=gineshidalgo99
[2]: https://github.com/opencv/opencv/commits?author=gineshidalgo99
I found the repositories I've pushed code at https://github.com/settings/repositories
I found the other answers cover the issue partially.
One shows repositories with write access only and the other requires you to know the repositories.
Here's how to find all your contributions step-by-step
Log in to your GitHub account and visit https://github.com/pulls
Filter and remove any organizations (like regular work repository/org) with -user:org-i-do-not-want. Add as many org as you want to filter out.
You can see all the pull requests you have raised

Yes, it is called the "Network Graph Visualizer"
The "original" repo is the one with the oldest commit. This can be accessed via the project page, click Insights top tab then click left-side tab Network (using Desktop browser, as of January 2019).
An alternative to list forks of a repo is branchesapp.
