Any other information: This wiki is being vandalized by unregistered users, and that is the main reason why I want to adopt this wiki.

There appears to a number of active users. Normally that would require a blog, forum or discussions post but this wiki doesn't seem to have any of that. So you might need to ask staff to activate one of those features then make a post about the adoption. Miiohau (talk) 02:04, March 6, 2018 (UTC)

NOT an official response, but rather someone on the Disney Princess Wiki. I feel this should be it's own reply instead of being in response to Miiohau, however feel free to correct it if it should be. The Disney Princess Wiki has Discussions and blogs, this is their blog post about adopting the Wiki from their previous request. I had previously told them on this thread on CC to make the blog post. They were asked by Merrystar recently to make a new request as the other is too old. I don't know if they will have to make a new blog post or not, however, I wrote this comment on this blog and also to Merrystar.

I do not believe 21EvanED155508 should be given Admin and Bureaucrat rights, unless they are willing to change the way they currently handle spammers and discussions with other Users, and Admins from other Wikis. Specifically what I mean is, they copied and pasted a page from the FernGully Wiki, a Wiki Skyebreeze and I are Bureaucrats and Admins on, adopted by us on Community Central in April of 2015. Evan did not discuss anything with us first or credit our Wiki. Skye and I wrote to them in the comments of said page about the issue and they deleted the parts of the page from our Wiki (discluding the picture) but said nothing to us. Evan had previously wrote me a message on my Message Wall, so I brought up the page again there, which they ignored again, but replied to everything else. This refusal and avoidance to discuss what they did is not only annoying but also a bit concerning if they are to become Admin. Evan is also fairly quick to become frustrated when talking to a spammer and undoing vandal edits. Instead of remaining calm, objective and fair, Evan will copy the spammer if they write in all caps and yell back at them, making themselves no better than the spammer and acting as immaturely as the spammer is. This also makes me worry about if they will assume good faith and be rational with blocks, especially if an edit war arises like they often do on this particular Wiki.

So again, unless they are willing to change how they handle certain situations, then I vote no.

 * Hello. There are a lot of other active contributors on the wiki, but they do not appear to support your request, and Ember opposes it.  As such, I cannot grant you the rights.  If this situation changes - either because you have the support of the other users on the wiki or because Ember changes her mind, please let me know.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 06:17, August 17, 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your quick reply, Merrystar, and I'm really sorry for being late in mine. I think Evan just needs guidance, then they would be set. They definitely have shown they care for the Wiki, and in my personal opinion, that's the most important part of an Adoption. They've been very protective of the Wiki from spammers and vandals, and are very quick to be helpful and informative, I think as it is right now they would be perfect as a Rollback and even as a Content Moderator. They have a lot of potential and are very passionate about the Wiki, so again, I believe Rollback and even Content Moderator rights could be a great fit right now. It would be very beneficial and helpful to the Wiki, and it would make all the reverting of vandalism they do much easier and quicker. I did see a User say I could become Admin, and Adopting that Wiki in the upcoming future would not be something I would be against. If I adopted the Wiki, I would make Evan a Rollback and Content Moderator and Skyebreeze an Admin as well as she has always proven to be fair and understanding to everyone. Please consider the above for Evan at the moment, and thank you very much for your time :) Madness is like gravity,  all it takes is a little push.  00:09, August 18, 2018 (UTC)
