Tron Wiki
I'd like to nominate Tron Wiki. We recently finished our 100th article and will continue to add more, especially when TR2N, the long-awaited sequel to the original movie will be released in the near future.

Thank you very much!

 * Hi. Tron Wiki looks really nice -- congratulations on reaching 100 articles!  I see two things that need to be worked on, per the Guidelines before I can put you on the spotlight list:
 * 1) You have 40+ uncategorized articles (you can see them at Special:UncategorizedPages). Could you please find a spot for them.
 * 2) You have a couple of unwelcomed anonymous users in your recent changes who should be welcomed if they weren't vandals.
 * Let me know when you get them taken care of and we'll add you to the list! -- Wendy  (talk ) 03:25, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Great job fixing those! I'll add you to the list. -- Wendy  (talk ) 15:54, 9 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Wendy! Thanks for responding so quickly!  I categorized the rest of the articles and welcomed all of the anonymous users.  I hope you can add us to the list really soon!  Once again, thanks a lot! --Mr. Sinistar 16:51, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Hardy Boys
I'd like to nominate The Hardy Boys Wiki for the Wikia Spotlight. We currently have over 380 articles (145 of which are in stubs in theArticle stubs category), and with the upcoming release of the first Hardy Boys video game, The Hardy Boys: The Hidden Theft we hope to have more articles soon. I think we meet most, if not all the criteria, but if not please tell me what we need to improve upon. By the way, this has been mentioned to the comunity at Forum:Spotlight.

 * Hi -- the Hardy Boys Wiki looks good. I'll add you to the list. -- Wendy  (talk ) 18:33, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

I'd like to use more then one logo, would that be all right?

This will be one of them:

The other one hasn't been decided yet, but it's being voted on here.

Also, I made a logo that will appear to users using Monobook.

Literature
Please consider spotlighting Literawiki. It has over 750 articles and several regular contributors who have been working hard to meet the spotlight criteria. The articles cover books from a variety of genres, authors, literary devices and contributor's reviews. -- CocoaZen 01:07, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi CocoaZen. Literawiki looks great -- I'll add you to the list!  -- Wendy  (talk ) 18:20, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Check out the criteria. When you can meet all of them you can ask for a spotlight.  One big thing is that you need 100 content pages.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 15:14, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Weedee - About People and Companies
Weedee is a collaborative platform showcasing the people and companies that make up the social fabric of the world. We stretched the concept of a wiki to cover even more ground and be more useful for our users. We have around 18,000 entries made in the site. We are in beta mode, but would love to get feedback and some spotlight. 


 * Hi. I'm sorry, but to get a spotlight the wiki has to be on wikia.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 02:51, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Club Penguin Wiki
Club Penguin Wiki is a community wiki about the well-known online virtual world Club Penguin. We are currently editing over 320 articles and counting. We currently only have a few main users, and would love it if we were in the wikia spotlight as that would attract more users, and more users means more articles! We have had an ongoing debate about how to get more users for weeks now, and someone said something about the wikia spotlight. Perfect! Please put us in the wikia spotlight! Club Penguin Wiki.
 * Thanks for your time. Sincierly -- Pingu Penguin Oh Just Say It!  17:36, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Bandipedia (Formerley know as Crash Bandicoot Wiki)
Hi, Bandipedia is a wiki about the Crash Bandicoot game series. I started editing there on November 2 2007, at which it was abandoned and only had about 80 articles. I attached a link to the Wikipedia article to get more hits. After 3 weeks or so, I gave up on editing because no-one had came. I went back in May this year and I discovered the wiki had 160 articles, another user had been looking after it until May, when I discovered that another user had been looking after it from December-1 April, since he stopped editing the wiki had became infested with vanadals. In June, I adopted the wiki. Now, the Wiki has over 250 articles and has a healthy number of contributors. The wiki is becoming pretty large now, and is in a pretty good condition.

Dead or Alive Wiki
Hello, I'm Squallinoa_08 from the DOA wikia site. I know that I don't have 100 articles, but I was hoping that I can let the DOA site be listed for the wikia spotlight. I have the monocoskin as my default, I categorized all my articles, I have a welcome template, a logo, and a nice main page. I know I didn't follow the 100 articles criteria, but in order for me to do so, I need more users! There's only 2 sysops, me and this other user who is inactive at the moment. So could you help me? Let me know on my DOA talk page (the link to the right) Thank you! Squallinoa_08
