Adoption:Indiana Jones Wiki

Adoption requests →

What is your username? Gunman6

Please link to the wiki here: http://indianajones.wikia.com/

How many edits have you made on that wiki? 419

How many days/months have you been editing there? Been there since June 25, 2013

On the Special Pages → Special:ListUsers when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it? http://indianajones.wikia.com/wiki/User:Vetinari was the one who edited there just today.

Any other information: I wish to take over this wikia since this admin keeps being vague, unhelpful, removing relevant material for unknown reasons and abusing his power as an admin. This guy never listens to me so asking for me to take over the wikia is POINTLESS.

Hi there! The most basic and prime rule about adopting a wiki is for none of the Admins to be inactive for 60 days. But since Vetinari has edited within that timeframe, you cannot adopt. Contact them if you desire the rights.

 * Please read above. "...prime rule about adopting a wiki is for none of the Admins to be inactive for 60 days." You cannot adopt a wiki against an active sysop and bureaucrat. --Kevingr (talk) 18:14, February 3, 2015 (UTC)


 * The rules should be revised then.--Gunman6 (talk) 09:43, February 4, 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes, you are ineligible to adopt. However, if the admin is truly abusing his power, along with other things, then I suggest attempting demotion by starting a thread on the wiki. Although, said thread will not work if you are the only user who feels this way. Hope this helped. Tysonjackson (talk) 22:02, February 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * No one else is on there enough or at all for that matter aside from the admin and I but there have been similar complaints. Also, see here. That is bullshit though.--Gunman6 (talk) 22:43, February 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * There are rules. Adoption is for taking care of abandoned wikis, not for hostile takeovers. The simple fact that the rules don't facilitate what you want is not a reason to change them. -- Tupka 217 22:55, February 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * This has nothing to do with hostility let alone wanting to change something for the heck of it all. It's the fact that this doesn't apply to the other scenarios and therefore is irrelevant.--Gunman6 (talk) 23:14, February 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * If you want to oust the current admin, that's a hostile takeover. It's not a friendly takeover. Hostile doesn't refer to you, or the admin, it refers to the takeover part.
 * If you disagree with the admin, you can start a discussion on the wiki to gauge other users' opinions. If he doesn't want to talk to you... you have no other options. -- Tupka 217 11:27, February 7, 2015 (UTC)
