 * It depends on the specific nature of the request. If a wiki on the same subject already exists, and it is obvious that the requester didn't do any research before making the redundant request, then the decline happens very quickly, usually within 24 hours.  If the subject of the request involves a topic the staff is unfamiliar with, and the requester didn't provide much information (and/or external references), it can take longer for the staff to decide whether the subject is appropriate to have a wiki; in some unfortunate cases, it can take more than 72 hours to come to a conclusion.
 * General rule of thumb: provide lots of info on the background of the subject matter, including links to wikipedia, official websites, and/or other informational websites. The better the staff has an understanding of what the request is about, usually the faster the decision gets made. -User:PanSola(talk/history) 01:24, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
