Adoption requests →

What is your username? The_GreatPerhaps

Please link to the Wiki here: mtg.wikia.com

How many edits have you made to this Wiki? As of this post: 934

'''How many Days/Months have you been editing there? '''Since January 8, 2016

On the Special Pages → Special:ListUsers when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it? Dv54321 at 19:08 on April 23rd, 2016, However, he is largely inactive and has made small edits throughout the time I've been a member of the wiki.

Any Other Information  DV54321 has caused many problems in the community, amogst its contributors and to the Wiki. Please see:
 * His Message wall with requests we've given him to contribute: Dv54321's message wall
 * His Profile which threatens to ban contributors: Dv54321's profile
 * His Bot's contributions, most of which were useless and had to be rolled back manually due to a lack of able sysops to rollback with one click: contributions "Avenger of Magic"
 * Him yelling at an active contributor in all caps, (with no formal apology:) Thread 23089
 * Neglecting to make edits and contributions specifically for a Sysop: Thread 22692

He is the only "active" sysop in the Wiki and because he accesses the Wiki sporadically and sparsely, it would be a long time before three months passed with no contributions from him and we were able to make this request per the norm.

The other members of the Wiki approve of my adopting the Wiki and their approval can be seen here while asking for admin rights to an inactive Sysop: here. The two other users shown in this link are the only two other active members in the community, not including myself and DV54321.

Please allow me to attain Bureaucrat status so that I may help this Wiki in many more ways than one. Other contributors and myself have had discussions on how to improve the Wiki if I were to attain this status, please see this thread.

As The GreatPerhaps mentioned, the community fully supports his request. More details about Dv54321's behaviour/edits can be provided. However, this is not an attempt to demote or get rid of Dv54321, but to keep the wiki alive and growing. If I can help in any way, please let me know.

I would like to state that perhaps you should try and contact the admin and gain rights, if he or she is active, good luck. Darytyg The Furry Darryn (talk) 07:36, April 28, 2016 (UTC)
