Community Central:Adoption requests

Hannah Montana Wikia (On hold)
- My contributions page. - The wikia

I'm currently working on renovating the Hannah Montana wikia, working on characters and episodes. There are a lot of articles so I haven't created many new articles, I've mostly been working on the articles there. It would help to have administrative powers because, unfortunately, there is a LOT of vandalism and it'd also be nice to delete unused pictures or pages.

The administrators haven't been on for months and most of the only recent edits have been vandalism or reverting vandalism. I will continue working on it (I took a break for a month for holidays and such but I'm going to try to work every day again). =] Hope I put everything that I had to.


 * Hi. You've done a nice job starting to clean up the Hannah Montana wiki, and it would be great to have somebody take care of that wiki.  However we do still need you to meet the criteria for adoption.  You've only worked on the wiki for a few days on either side of your holiday, so we'd like to see you work on it steadily for another week or so.  Also, there are a lot of editors, mostly one-shot, who do make useful contributions, and we'd like to see you welcoming them.  For articles/images that need deleting you can add the  tag so it will be easy to find them later.  And while this wiki does have content in place, there are still lots of articles that can be created.  Let us know if we can help and please get back to us when you meet the criteria for adopting.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 21:08, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Soul Eater Wiki (On hold)
(r c)

I'd like to adopt the Soul Eater Wiki myself. I've been administrating the Narutopedia for awhile, and as part of Wikia ACG look over a number of other wiki. However the only ones that take active attention are the Narutopedia and the Dragon Ball Wiki. Both of them have a good live community and only need a bit of watching and administration. So I've been looking for a wiki to adopt that I actually have some capability to work on.

Soul Eater is a currently running series, so creating a community is not as hard as with the series which have already been finished. And there have only been around 35 episodes so far, and the series is not as complex as other ones like Naruto. So it's not to hard to get the wiki to catch up with content. Wikipedia already has a fair bit of content, so I've started out with merging in what WP has and cleaning it up (the wiki has some content of it's own, as well as some badly copied pages which I'm fixing up).

Just to note for whoever's handling rights, could I also get a Bot flag on AnimeBot. I have a large number of templates inside of Wikia ACG that vastly simplify cleaning up and being compatible with content based from Wikipedia, as well a good Infobox system. So I'd like to put Soul Eater in the loop so the content can start to look better. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) (tricks) (current topic) Dec 13, 2008 @ 01:05 (UTC)
 * Hey Dantman. Now you are admin on a lot of wikis.  Of course I understand why, but... I think there's a point where we have to look at whether you need to drop some :) Perhaps we can talk about this on IRC?  I'm off to sleep soon, but perhaps I can catch you tomorrow.  Thanks -- sannse (talk) 21:17, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

MechQuest Wiki (On hold)
I would like to adopt the MechQuest wiki. The reason why, is because I feel that there has been absolutely no effort into creating it. If you look at the front page, it has news fro August, 2008. It has a nonsense-ID page, and no users have really done anything to support it. I a not sure if the admin has been active recently, but I ask, for the sake of MechQuest players, to adopt this wikia and establish it to it's former glory. ~Omega! 22:45, 15 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree, it looks like the admins have been inactive there. Please work on meeting the guidelines at the top of the page -- welcome new users, create new pages, work on improving the wiki for two weeks -- and we will be happy to have a new admin there.  — Catherine (talk) 01:48, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

i feel that the second wiki under .hack needs to be revived but no one has and i feel like it is my obligation to do so. So plz let me be an admin. so that i can revive this wiki

Thank You Your Fellow Wiki Member lastdemon5
 * Could you please clarify which wiki you are talking about? Do you mean the second wiki on the .hack page, which is http://ja.dothack.wikia.com ?  Thank you!  — Catherine (talk) 01:37, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Age of Mythology Wikia (On hold)
Since there are no active bureaucrats anything I would like to request to be a bureaucrat, admin, or even a sysop on it, so in that way I can fix up the wiki. Halogod35 16:58, 18 December 2008 (UTC)


 * It looks like you've made a great start in the two days you've been editing there -- please keep it up and we'll check back with you when two weeks have passed. Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 01:37, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Can do. Halogod35 17:33, 20 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Looking good -- keep working! — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Polish Software (On hold)
So, I want to adopt a Wiki about Software. My contribution isn't very big now, but I want to build good Wiki. There are many things to repair, vandalismes, very, very short articles... Yes, I will do very lot. And to do some of that things i must to be an admin. My friend said he can help me with writing new articles. And – my contribution. Misiek 17:17, 19 December 2008 (UTC)


 * It looks like you've done some great editing in one day -- please keep it up and we'll check back with you when two weeks have passed. Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 01:37, 20 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Excellent work -- please keep it up! — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Wackypedia (On hold)
I am interested in adopting Wackypedia and reviving it. I could not contribute since it has been abandoned and editing has been disabled. --Thehmmm13 18:30, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * So Wikia's Illogicopedia finally decided to change its name and start with a clean slate. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 18:32, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

No, I want to adopt this and make it a different wiki and rebrand it.--Thehmmm13 19:46, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Just so you know, the database is locked down so that Wikia can perform a major clean-up of the wiki in order to distinguish it from the real Illogicopedia. You may have to wait. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 16:29, 20 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thehmmm, you don't appear to have made edits anywhere on Wikia other than this request -- why are you interested in adopting this wiki? — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

I would like to adopt wackypedia
 * Sorry, but only registered accounts can adopt wikis. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 14:26, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

NCIS wikia (Declined)
I would like to request Adminship on NCIS Wikia because i am very knowledgable on that show.I been a NCIS fan since 2003 and i really want to help that Wikia grow


 * There are other active editors and administrators on this wiki, so it is not eligible for adoption. You have only made one edit so far -- I encourage you to say hello to the admin User:Nighthawk leader and add more of your knowledge to the wiki!  — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Warhawk wiki (Accepted)
I'd like to be made a bureaucrat/admin on the Warhawk wiki. Our only bureaucrat/admin, the founder, has been inactive for months and doesn't respond to emails or Talk page posts. The entire wiki has been relatively dead for a while. I believe I meet all the necessary requirements. I've been doing a lot of maintenance on it lately, re-structuring it too. I think at this point 50% or more of the content could be mine (the founder made about 100 edits, I've made about 1,000), and I've revised as well as started many pages. I've been publicizing it heavily in the Warhawk gaming community, and I'm starting to get new visitors and a few occasional, tentative editors. Though most of them don't create an account yet, and unfortunately while the ones that have are making useful contributions, they often need spelling, grammatical, & organization cleanups afterwards. And I'm now also getting vandals, and while they don't need blocking yet, that may happen. We may have a lot of new players after Christmas day. There are also pages I'd like to delete. You can find my contributions by clicking here --Jason C.K. 05:42, 20 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Excellent work, Jason -- you're definitely admin material. Thanks for ensuring that you met all the guidelines before applying here, and for trying to contact the previous admin.  I've granted you the rights -- please keep creating pages and building relationships with new editors.  Check in with the Logo Creation wiki if you need help designing a logo for your wiki!   Best wishes — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Mu Online Wiki (On hold)
I was about to look more info about MU Online, but when I saw the wiki page, it DOES NOT have even 3 pages, and the main page is a Total Mess! it does not even have relevance to the game.

I had an idea about adopting the page, and at the same time I'm making new pages. Thanks for your coordination, hope that you could grant this for me! Merry Christmas!

PS: I've found the very first article, and doesn't even have links on it about the whole wiki. And it's PICTURE-LESS, so i hope that i could build this better as the admin, for example the side menu, I can add some more character unto it, And I can change the background of the whole wiki. Please Let Me Have This! Thank You Very Much! - ZJ_morales


 * You've made an excellent start, but you've only been editing a couple of days so far. Please keep up the good work, and concentrate on building twenty new pages -- you might also want to create a user page for yourself.  I look forward to seeing the improvements you make here, and will check back on you when two weeks have passed!  — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Artemis Fowl (Declined)
Hello. I'm Howdychicken, and I'm requesting adminship on the wikia Artemis Fowl. I've haven't been a part of the wiki for long, but since I already had somoe experience with the Wikipedia style format, I decided it couldn't hurt to make a few changes when I saw fit. Within only a couple days, I've made many major edits, created many new templates, made easter eggs on the site, have made brand new needed articles numerous times, and have really cleaned up what I could in the articles' text and added details and new pictures. I know there are limited accounts on the site, and I feel like the others admins (which as far as I can tell only work on major projects) could use some help. I'm willing to provide that help. I love the series and think the articles on that wiki need some major overhauling. Some don't even need to exist, although I don't have the power to do anything but redirect some of the stupid stuff and edit out the bad. I don't know if it's in the Central Wikia's power to provide that type of power, so if it's not, could you at least tell me how to address this to the other admins? Or perhaps put in a good word for me? Thanks to the gazilliath power for your time!

18:42, 21 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Howdychicken -- this page is for the adoption of inactive wikis -- it looks like Artemis Fowl has many active editors, and the admin User:C Teng last edited about a six weeks ago. I suggest you try to contact him/her using the user talk page and/or the "Email this user" link on that page, and express an interest in gaining rights.  If s/he doesn't respond, then you should talk to the rest of the community to decide how new admins should be chosen.   Once the active editors have come to an agreement, we'll be happy to hand out the admin tools.  — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Wobbupedia (Declined)
Hi

Not sure how this works exactly but i would love adopt the brilliantly named "Wobbupedia". Dispite it appearing to be in spanish (?) i feel i can improve it behond recognision, i boast a considerably knowedge of the first 150 pakemon and a couple of my mates are even completely clued up on the later generations! So if you can find it in the goodness of your heart to allow me the honour of nuturing and developing this wiki i will be most grateful.

Love KormaPolice and his friends x


 * KormaPolice, "Wobbupedia" is our Pokémon wiki in the Catalan language -- do you speak that language? If not, then we can't allow you to adopt it.  However, we have Pokémon wikis in English and fifteen other languages, and they all can use new contributors.  If you speak only English, please join the active community there, and start making good edits -- you may be able to earn adminship there over time.   If you speak another language that is currently inactive, please start making edits there and work on meeting the guidelines at the top of this page.  — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Maplestory Wiki adoption request (Declined)
I would like to request adopting the Maplestory Wiki, as the admins are never active and I am the only one who works on the wiki. In the past two or so weeks since I tried to help them, not a single person besides me has edited the wiki, nor has it been updated. I have filled out pages in major need of editing and such, and I have also contacted one of the three admins, who has not yet responded to my question. Veni, Vidi, Vici 03:46, 22 December 2008 (UTC)Raptearer


 * It looks like the admin User:DarkNShadow has been editing frequently this month -- the wiki is not inactive. You've only edited there for a few days, but you can talk to DarkNShadow about earning admin rights.  Good luck!  — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

6Teen wiki (On hold)
The 6teen wiki is largly unedited by users, and I'm not even sure who the adminitrators are. The wiki has under 50 articles. I have been editing for a bit, correcting grammer, and such. I would like to adopt it because of it's inactivity. I have redesigned the logo, the welcome template, and other templates. I have also introduced an editing award system, along with --Piebob2323 22:29, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Scratch that. I don't need to adopt it. I'll ask the user who I think is administrator to make me a rollback.--Piebob2323 05:07, 23 December 2008 (UTC)


 * You've only been editing there for a couple of days, and you are already an admin at Weeblsstuff, where you've only edited sporadically. We would need to see a lot more evidence of dedication on your part before we'd be willing to let you take on a second wiki.   Please work on improving both wikis and we can take another look in two weeks.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

I don't want to adopt it i bought a site about it. --Piebob2323 12:33, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Lord of The Rings (Declined)
I wish to adopt or become an admin at the the Lord of the Rings Wikia. The reason being because I have fixed so many red links, made 4-3 pages, and only contributed since, like 2 or so days.GEARS OF WAR 2
 * Sorry, but this is only for the adoption of inactive wikis. The Lord of the Rings wiki already has four active administrators. Please use w:c:lotr:LOTR:Requests for adminship instead. If you're having trouble applying for administrator rights, please ask User:Robin Patterson for help or another active administrator for help. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 04:47, 22 December 2008 (UTC)


 * As Michael says, those who are interested in adminship on actively edited wikis should start making good edits and talk to the community there to find out the local policies for earning the tools. Good luck!  — Catherine (talk) 19:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

FringeWiki
I would like to adopt the FringeWIki. The admins have not been active for over 60 days. I have been working on the wiki for over two weeks, I've added more text, added several images, and categorized several pages. I have created over 20 pages. I also customized the welcome template, the welcome IP template, and the delete template if you take a look at their histories. I have also welcomed anyone who came. Here are my contributions --Balistic Pve (T/C/E) 17:38, 22 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the hard work, Ballistic, and for following the guidelines carefully. Fringe is a fun show that's growing in popularity and I would love to see this wiki take off.  As you've seen me recommend to many others, developing a relationship with new users is the key to building a successful project, and building many long pages that are well-linked to each other will help you rise in search engine rankings and attract new visitors.  Good luck and best wishes!  — Catherine (talk) 21:53, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
