Hi.

Thanks for leaving a message for Kanamekun; however the message you left gave no indication that the blog was about choosing a new admin for the wiki; all things considered I also wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't answer.

The new blog you made was basically just a reset of your original blog, although it is fine for what it is. However, almost none of the people who supported you there appear to be active contributors on that wiki. It's great that you have support from other Wikia users, but you need the support of the Smallville Wiki community -- the longterm active contributors on that wiki.

I suggest that you make a blog about promoting new admins in general, and let the community choose who they wish to have be the admins/bureaucrats. Wikis where this has worked well started by having a blog for people to nominate candidate admins (you can nominate yourself) and then created a new blog/poll for voting on the candidates.

Your original blog already showed that some of the contributors on Smallville Wiki did not support your adoption. However it is possible they would agree to promoting you as part of a new admin team, and given the level of activity on that wiki more than one new admin would be useful. A discussion point might be how many bureaucrats and/or admins people wish to have. For example the top vote getter might be bureaucrat and 2nd and 3rd admin or something similar.

Any conversation needs to be held between active contributors on the Smallville wiki. It may help to go to Special:ListUsers, sort by date of last edit, and leave wall messages about electing new admins for anybody who has contributed in the last week to encourage them to make comments.

You are clearly dedicated to gaining admin rights on this wiki, and I do appreciate that you want to help it out; but you need the support of the wiki community there.
