Hello all.

I would like to adopt a wiki, even though I haven't put any edits towards it. It deals with a topic that I'm extremely passionate about, and I currently own and run a successful wiki dealing with the community surrounding that topic.

The problem is, if I were to join and edit the wiki for a week, trying to make the community a better place, the owner would delete all my edits and possibly even ban me for doing so. Currently, they are sitting on the wiki, and have removed all content from it, and instead have used the wiki to post a link to another wiki they are running. This is not conducive towards creating a better understanding of said topic, or creating a community around it.

The only updates the other mods and admins have made were way back in 2014. The only recent changes the onwer has made was to delete all content from the wiki, as stated before.

I would like to know if anyone else feels that I have a case if I submit an adoption request. Like I said before, I have no edits on the wiki, and I can't prove for a fact that I've been trying my best to create a community surrounding it, but I feel as if my own wiki dealing with the other side of the topic, and the fact the owner clearly has abandoned the wiki, is enough to warrant my ownership of it, so we can restore the content that was lost.
