If no-one is going to work on it, close it. You can always find it and reopen one day, if needed

Hello @Haile_ Eskinder 

What is the type of project this concerns? Get that information from the projects list available from Projects > More Projects > View All Projects.

If you are working with a Team Managed Software project you will not be able to modify the filter used by the board as John suggested.

If you are working with a Business project (either Team Managed or Company Managed) you will not be able to modify the filter for that board either.

When you say you want to "hide" them do you just want to hide them from the board view, or do you also want to exclude them from the reports related to the board? This question applies only if you are using a Software project and a Scrum or Kanban board.

Hi Haile - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

If you are using a status or resolution for that, just modify the board filter used by the board and exclude those in the JQL query used by the filter.
