'''I came to Hetalia Archives to help it out because it pretty much only has Character Pairing pages and I wanted to help it out by putting character pages, which they have a list with a short description. This Wiki needs alot of work and if I become the new founder, I know I can help it out. This Wiki is susceptible to Trolls and Spam, and it needs admins and Chat Moderators dearly...'''

 * Hi. Since you state here that you intend to work on the fork wiki and also to go on vacation for a month I am closing this request.


 * You should realize, however, that Icelilly and the others left that wiki; it is not up to them to decide what it should be or how big it should remain just so it does not compete with their own wiki. -- Wendy (talk ) 05:28, July 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * I am willing to help too! My friends over there are also going to too. We can do this. If OWB is gone, then I can take her place. Please, please please don't close the request. I myself have alot of experience and OWB said that she could possibly get to a computer. She also wrote that blog before Icelilly told her about the move and explained everything but that wouldn't have happend if you read the request in time. I also got a message from another member of your staff and it states this:


 * "Hi, I saw your blog post and wanted to say that I think it would be great for you to add more content on the characters, episodes, etc. Many members of the former community have moved to a new site, but as they mentioned we have kept the site open so members who have decided to stay and new editors can still participate here. Please let me know if you plan to stay and any help you might need."


 * I think we can still work it out. My friends have also promised they would stay and if they stay, then I am staying too. We do acknowledge the fact that they have moved but that shouldn't stop us. We will commit to the wiki and we will do what has to be done.


 * If you read this, then thank you for doing so. StarsandPeacesigns 12:02, July 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'd like to throw in my two cents her and reaffirm that Icelilly and myself have -not- left this wiki, despite assertions that we have. We monitor the site to prevent any vandalism, though the users there are pretty good about catching it quickly without us needing to step in ourselves (though we have let the fanart rule become lax which we shouldn't have). We have been in the process (albeit a slow one) of figuring out a way to reformat the wiki to gear towards the stronger sections (like the Uniform Guides). We even encouraged OWB to join us in helping us with this endeavor and even take a leading position on this wiki, and I'm a little surprised she rescinded her request, to be perfectly honest.


 * The concern we have includes a copying of content straight from our new location to here, were has happened a few times in the past (Just off the top of my head, the original version of the page for Netherlands and Belgium's Hatafutte Parade). Should the editors choose to help rebuild sections anew instead of copying this info or work that has long since been removed with consent of all the editors (and wikia staff) at the time, then they are more than welcome to help with a restructure/revival. -FH14 15:23, July 13, 2012 (UTC)
