How many edits have you made on that wiki?

I made most of my contributions without an account. I registered this account earlier today, because I am tired of seeing spammers remove my contributions. This wiki is facing a lot of spam, mostly made by commercial websites who're trying to place backlinks on the Wiki.

How many days/months have you been editing there?

On this account, just today. But I have been contributing to this Wiki for more than a year.

On the Special Pages → Special:ListAdmins when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it?
 * Username: 'rsps'. Last edit: 2016.


 * Username: Canownueasy. Last edit: 2017.

Any other information:

I understand this adoption request might seem a little odd as I registered this account just now.

The Wiki I am placing this adoption request for is related to RuneScape Private Servers (RSPS). I have been an active member of the RSPS scene since 2006, and my contributions to the scene have led to a big growth of the scene.

This growth is good, but has its downsides. One of the downsides is commercialisation of the scene. This has resulted into many commercial websites, who're now abusing this Wiki to place totally irrelevant backlinks to their websites. You'll instantly notice this when looking at the Wki's history. I have been undo'ing a lot of these changes (before I registered this account), yet I'm still seeing that a lot of my contributions are being overwritten by hyperlinks.

I would like to adopt the wiki to put an end to this. Using my (almost 14 years of) experience in the RSPS scene, I intend on building a stable and actively monitored Wiki with no spam. With the amount of spam this wiki is currently facing, there really is no point in contributing until there is an active admin.


 * Adoption denied. Reason: Insufficient history. Feel free to reapply when you have more edits over time. --MisterWoodhouse (talk) 13:01, October 26, 2020 (UTC)
