Help talk:Adopting a community

A question regarding the adoption guidelines
You have not adopted another community in the last month

I wonder, how exactly is this one meant?

Does it mean any I adoptions I tried to perform or just the ones that succeeded?

I am asking this, because I am planning to adopt an abandoned Five Nights at Candy's Wiki once I meet the requirements to do so, but had a failed adoption request for another wiki almost a month ago, where myself and some fellow admins merged the wiki with one of our wikis instead.

 * I believe the restriction is only for adoptions that have succeeded. So, you should be fine there in requesting adoption of Five Nights at Candy's - good luck! no replyz 14:41, May 1, 2018 (UTC)

If the adoption succeeds, I am planning to clean up all the spam and vandalism and update the wiki's content, so that fellow FNAC fans can enjoy the wiki again. I am already working on the latter and on categorizing all the images on the wiki. There are also two more users, who want to help me out once the adoption has succeeded. One of them already tried to adopt the wiki, but he isn't active enough to fulfill the requirements. I have been editing for 6 days straight now and made 514 edits. Should I start my request tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? - have a conversation with Semerone 14:51, May 1, 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much! I am looking forward to adopt the Five Nights at Candy's wiki then.

Outdated
This page is outdated, with invalid links for desired links. An updated version would allow us to find how to make new requests. ;)

Average Time
What is the average time it takes for an adoption request to be complete &#91;&#91;Entity303lollol&#93;&#93;&#61;&#61;&#61;&#61;&#62; (talk) 07:48, November 18, 2020 (UTC)


 * It's generally about a week or less. :) https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/cfmtest/images/4/40/Signature_avatar_img.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/30?cb=20201109051129  CrazyForMyself 08:01, 11/18/20 (UTC)

Request page creation error
For some reason, the request page for the wiki I'm attempt to adopt only redirects to code of an already-completed request instead of...actually adding a new template. Like it is supposed to do.

It actually produced the true template once but then it stopped doing so.
