Any other information: I am extremely concerned that the Sofia wikia is a constant target for vandalism.

Given the severity of the most recent incident, I am putting forward my application to adopt this wikia, to implement changes to limit the damage caused and gain access to the moderator functions in order to more readily revert malicious editing.

Also, I think some redesign/customization of the wikia templates is required, since I recently discovered the default templates aren't compatible with the subject matter and it appears no custom templates have been created. I assume this is something that requires admin or content moderator access, since I couldn't find a way to add a new template.

In order to be able to adopt a wiki, all admins would have to be inactive for at least 60 days, which a couple of them haven't been. If you'd like to gain rights, you'll have to ask them.--

I understand that, but given the severity of the last attack, the lack of basic protection enabling and the fact that this wikia is a frequent target for vandalism, I am hoping an exception to that rule can be made, just for these extenuating circumstances. Because I believe two months of more vandalisation would be too much.

Regardless, I did follow your advice and apply to become a content moderator. Buckmana (talk) 03:02, November 25, 2017 (UTC)


 * Hello. Like A&P said, the wiki is not eligible for adoption due to there being two active admins. I see that you contacted one of the admins about becoming a moderator, but you may also want to contact Kyurem147. In the case of vandalism when the admins aren't around, I recommend reporting it at VSTF Wiki.
