Any other information: Hi there, I'm an admin on the Fallout Wiki and a staff member on the Official SCP Wiki over on Wikidot. I'm looking to adopt the SCP Wiki here on Wikia to extend our community presence to here on Wikia, and convert the current extant wiki into a sort of meta-analysis site breaking down articles that are published on the main site, their themes, and other articles that are similar to them. I have 284 edits on the wiki at the time of posting this request, which have been acquired through the implementation of an early category structure which you will see when going through my edits, formatting cleanups on those articles that exist, and the begining stages of template imports.

Notably: I've imported several functional templates that are currently not so functional due to the lack of access to the backend I would need to implement the Javascript and CSS that I would need in order to get rid of the script errors. This is understandable and has made some of the process of importing templates a little less smooth than I would like.

I've also created two functional Infobox template formats for use in articles that I have had to tinker with a bit, and currently aren't portable. I intend to convert those into usable portable forms. You can find those Here and here.

I have also outlined the beginnings of policies for general wiki, article, and content concerns that I would implement upon adoption should this request pass, and will continue to refine as I'm very aware that the foundations will need lots of revision. You can find these here, here,and here. A lot of this early work is in the sloppy stages because there just aren't really any people around. This brings me to the next thing, I made a user blog here and attempted to communicate with the only other regularly active editor here. Unfortunately, none of these efforts at communication have garnered any feedback or responses at this time.

I have also drafted and posted two mainspace articles which should provide examples of the kind of material I wish to curate and post on the site as demonstrated in SCP-015 and SCP-3637. ---bleep196- (talk) 16:58, June 4, 2020 (UTC)
