VSTF is definitely the place to report the vandalism when there is no admin.

In terms of the founder....I've reviewed his contributions and agree he is not helping you maintain the wiki. So go ahead and hold a community discussion there to pick a new admin (sysop). Leave a message for the founder that you are concerned about the vandalism and wiki maintenance and are discussing a new admin who can help with that, and give him a link to the discussion. It's fine if he doesn't answer, but he should be told about it and given the chance to read it.

When the community has agreed on who should be admin and/or after a week if the founder does not comment, have the person put in a new adoption request, with links to the conversations on the wiki, the note for the admin, and this conversation (so I can find it easily again). In cases such as this, when there is strong community support, we will appoint an admin to help out; whoever it is can request bureaucrat rights for the full adoption if/when the founder is inactive the 60 days.
