Bakugan Wiki (approved)
I would like to request a Spotlight for the Bakugan Wikia. It has 1,474 pages, which gets added to almost weekly. Even though we have few really regular contributers, we still get work done. The community is great together, and will help each other out. Abce2 | They call  ''me Prophet." 02:20, April 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Never mind, the community's an arse. :/ Abce2 | They call  ''me Prophet." 22:16, April 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Forget the above comment, left my account on accidentally. Taken care of. :P Abce2 | They call  ''me Prophet." 22:42, April 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Bakugan Wiki is generally in good shape, but needs a few tweaks to meet the spotlight criteria. You have 400+ in your stub category, which is more than 1/5th of your content; the goal would be to have no more than 300 or so.  Could you please look through them and remove any that are no longer truly stubs?  Some of them appear to be reasonably long to me.  Also you need to restore the corporate footer/spotlights which you are currently hiding with your css; it's against the Wikia customization policy to hide them like that.  Let me know on my talk page when you have taken care of these issues.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 03:13, May 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * Fixed.Abce2 | Diggy  ''diggy hole" 01:23, May 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for cleaning up those issues. I've added you to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy  (talk ) 12:31, May 6, 2011 (UTC)

Digimon Fanon Wiki
I like to request a spotlight for this Digimon fanon wikia. Digimon fanon wiki already reach over 200 articles. This wiki starts to grow since every month.--User_talk:Ericard 02:13, April 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. The wiki generally looks good.  You have some uncategorized pages; could you please sort them out? Also, you do not appear to be very active there (you have not edited in over two weeks), and there needs to be an active admin on spotlighted wikis.  At least one of the other admins appears to drop by sporadically; perhaps you could talk to them about the spotlight and make sure somebody will be active on the wiki for it?  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:27, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, you are right. Ok, I'll fixed them and I will let you know later. Thanks.--User_talk:Ericard 03:32, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

Wendy, seems there is none are active admin, maybe this wiki need to be pending until the admins will be further confirmed until I will let you know. Thanks.--User_talk:Ericard 03:36, May 3, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ok. No problem :). Let me know when you guys are back on there.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:16, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

Battle: Los Angeles Wiki
Hello! I understand my wiki, Battle: Los Angeles Wiki does not meet all of your criteria, but it is one of those topics where it will lose it's fan base if it does not get one growing immediately. I understand you will create Wikia spotlights for certain Wikis if they have a more current topic, such as a Wiki about a film that coincides with its release. I am really trying to keep my Wiki going and am continuing to create articles, but if I don't start to draw attention to people now, a lot of people will quickly lose interest in the film. Thanks!

Tsu&#39;tey te Rongloa Ateyitan 23:41, April 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Unfortunately if you request a spotlight you do have to meet the criteria here.  Many of the spotlights you see are not requested; they are chosen by the content team; and yes, frequently it is a smaller but current wiki.  You just can't request those here.  I'm sorry -- please feel free to ask again once the wiki has been built up.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:19, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

(Sigh) Okay. Thanks. Hopefully we'll have 200 non-stub articles by the time that the film is released on DVD. I just hope there's still some people out there interested in the movie. Because unless they make a sequel, it is gonna lose probably 90% of its fan base. =) Thanks again! Tsu&#39;tey te Rongloa Ateyitan 22:40, May 3, 2011 (UTC)Tsu'tey te Rongloa Ateyitan

RuneScape Fanfiction Wiki
Hello! I'd like to see if RuneScape Fanfiction Wiki can quallify for a Spotlight. It's been around since 2007, and I've notice it's becoming more popular by day. We get more and more users from our mother wiki the RuneScape Wiki. Chiafiend12 is also the founder of this wiki, but I've been running it for quite a whille after he gave me his position as founder.

~Sereniama~ | Page ▪ Talk ▪ Wiki Contributions | 04:53, April 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. RuneScape Fanfiction looks like it has a lot of neat content.  In order to be spotlighted it would need to have some sort of image/graphics added to the main page; right now it's visually a huge wall of text.  You would also need to finish categorizing all the pages (I see that you are aware of this from the community corner message).  Let me know on my talk page when you have taken care of these issues!  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:39, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

Gami Wiki (approved)
Hi,Wiki! I'm the creator of a Wiki called Gami Wiki and I was wishing for you to add it to the Spotlight list. It has exactly 200 pages with NO STUBS. The Main Page has a lot of links and a picture, all pages in a category, not promoting any new admins, have a pretty great Community message, has a customized skin and colorful images. It was a lot of hard work making more then half of these pages and we need more contributors.

It is about a Pokemon-like world (like Complipedia above) where everyone can share creatures they made. It was made about a month ago.

If you accept, please make this as the picture or. The description could be "Join a Pokémon-like world.

Thanks. I Have Come For Your Head! - SilverWingsxxx 03:43, April 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Gami Wiki looks great and I have added it to the approved spotlight list. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:46, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

Okami Wiki (approved)
I would like to request a spotlight for Ōkami Wiki. I believe we meet the requirements and are in good shape but we could use the extra users. I believe now is a good time for us to expand our user base as Ōkamiden, the second game in the series, was recently released.--Soul reaper 13:50, April 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Okami Wiki looks great and I have added it to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:37, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

Coasterpedia
Hello! Hopefully it's not too soon to put up another request, but it has been over six months since the first spotlight for this wiki, and other wikis have been spotlighted more than once in a six-month period, so this should be OK by your standards.

I'd like to request a spotlight for Roller Coaster Wiki. It still follows all the "best practices" and now has improved infoboxes. Thanks for your time! MontagnaMagica|Talk 22:01, April 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. If you look further up this page, you'll see that you already had a second spotlight approved in February. Generally we ask wikis to wait at least a year before requesting a 3rd spotlights.  So maybe ask sometime next fall.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:48, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

TTTE Wikia (approved)
Hello. Would you mind adding Thomas the Tank Engine Wikia please? It has been ages since it has last been spotlighted. Thank you, Toby7 Ding!Ding! 21:41, May 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've been asked to approve this request. So, not much to say except "I approve". <font face="Arial"> Thomasfan  Peep! Peep!   02:44, May 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. TTTE Wiki looks like it is in generally good shape. You would need to drop the main page protection to only protect against new and unregistered users; then I would be happy to add it to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:18, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

Layton Wiki (approved)
I would like to request a Spotlight for the Professor Layton Wiki. We've been working hard on our wiki to make it as big as possible. We've still got a lot of work on the puzzles and everything, but it'll be done eventually. We should meet all the requirements listed on the article page. Thank you in advance. - Tjcool007 (Talk / Contribs) 20:15, May 10, 2011 (UTC)

Camp Half-Blood Role Playing Wiki (approved)
I would like to request a spotlight for the Camp Half-Blood Role Playing Wiki, we are fairly new, but we already have over 300 pages and climbing, as this is an rpg wiki, the more user's we have that actively want to contribute in a role playing environment, the more fun the site will be and the faster it will grow and I feel having spotlight will help us to achieve that. http://camphalfbloodroleplay.wikia.com/wiki/Camp_Half-Blood_Role_Playing_Wiki --<font face="Vivaldi" size="5" color="Purple" >BachLynn (<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="2" color="Purple">Send an Owl! ) 23:23, May 12, 2011 (UTC)

ultra dragonball wiki (approved)
I am an admin on the ultra dragonball wiki and would like to make a spotlight request. It has has over two hundred pages, there is nothing going on there right now, it is a peaceful wiki, and it has all the other requirments. Gotek may 13


 * Hi. Ultra Dragonball Wiki looks great.  You would need to drop the main page protection to the autoconfirmed level, which prevents edits from unregistered users and new accounts in order to be spotlighted.  Let me know on my talk page when you have done that and I will be happy to add you to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:50, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

The main page level is changed now ~gotek~ may 18

Big Bang Theory Wiki (approved)
As one of the admins for the wiki, I am proud to say that we are ready to be spotlighted! Jim Parsons won an emmy for the show, we have been renews for three more seasons! We have a great source of information and growing community. I've looked over the requirements and have already a featured wiki for my other wikia back late last year, I feel we have everything we need to be featured. <font color="Red">Zey <font color="Silver">pher Admin of TBBT 09:41, May 17, 2011 (UTC)

The Lion King Wikia
Hi, I'd like to request a spotlight for The Lion King Wikia. We currently have over three-hundred articles, an active front page, and a family-friendly environment. -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 21:59, May 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Lion King Wiki looks like a nice wiki.  To meet the spotlight criteria you would need to customize the skin (you can use the Theme Designer) and the Community Corner.  You also have a handful of uncategorized pages that need to be sorted out.  Finally you would need to strengthen your content so no more than 1/5th (about 65 pages in your case) of the articles are stub pages (roughly speaking, shorter than 300 bytes).  Please let me know on my talk page when you have had a chance to meet all the spotlight criteria.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:47, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

Death Note Wiki
Please give Death Note Wiki a spotlight:

It has 200 pages.

The description should be... "I am...Justice!"

The image should be:

Link: This is it.


 * Hi. Congratulations on reaching 200 articles! However in order to meet the spotlight criteria the wiki would need some tweaks.  The main page protection would need to be dropped back to protect only against anonymous users.  You have about 60 uncategorized pages that would need to be sorted out.  The wiki would also need to fill out some of the pages; the spotlight criteria is to have at least 200 non-stub articles, but right now about 40 of your pages are still stub-length.  Please continue to work on the wiki and ask again when you have had a chance to meet all of the spotlight criteria.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 22:27, June 8, 2011 (UTC)

The British Wildlife Wiki (approved)
Hey, we applied for a spotlight a little while ago. I would like to apply again as we now meet the criteria. The British Wildlife Wiki now has over 1200 pages and over 1200 images. We are always adding more and we aim to have 2000 page by the end of the year. We have grown in number over the years and we have a great community although most contributors only help out occasionally. Cheers TheWWC 18:10, May 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * Great job strengthening the content. I have gone ahead and added you to the approved spotlights list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:30, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

I think Lostpedia should get a spotlight (if we don't already have it)!! We've got over 7200 pages (all with great detail) and thousands of images :D —This unsigned comment is by Julietfan2626 (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with !


 * Hi. Lostpedia has had several spotlights I believe. However if the wiki would like another, please have an admin or bureaucrat make the request. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:39, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

Deus Ex Wiki
Hey, Id like to ask for the Deus Ex Wiki to get a spotlight. It recently hit 450 pages, almost all of which are categorized, are decent length, and are legitamately written. The wiki is about 3 years old, but activity has really picked up this year (usually multiple edits a day). Honestly, most of the content that can be written has been written, so not much is going on right now, but in August the first game in 8 years is coming out and some more users would be great to tackle the influx of new content. Dorgles 20:20, May 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Deus Ex Wiki looks really sharp.  There are a few tweaks it would need to meet the spotlight criteria.  The main page would need to be protected only against anonymous/new account edits (the middle protection level), and you would need to customize the Community Corner.  There is also a small handful of uncategorized pages that need to be sorted out.  Please let me know on my talk page when you have taken care of these things and I'll be happy to add the wiki to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:51, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

House of Anubis Wiki
Hi! May you please spotlight the House of Anubis Wikia! We have a lot of users, but Season 1 just ended and some users that have been on since the wikia started have been gone and they say they will be back soon, but we still need users. All of our admins are on at least every two days. (We have five)

Thank you for your time! =D

Have a Nice Day,

<font color="Red">NeneG  Leave me a message!  17:14, June 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. In order to be spotlighted through this page, a wiki needs to meet our Spotlight criteria.    One of the basic requirements is 200 non-stub articles.  Right now House of Anubis Wiki doesn't quite meet that criteria.  Please continue to build up your content and ask again when the wiki can meet all of the spotlight criteria.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:11, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

Dead Space Wiki
Hello. I am Subtank, a representative of the administration team of Dead Space Wiki and would like to request a spotlight. Activity has slowly been in decline and having a spotlight could hopefully make the wiki more livelier (oh, the irony of a wiki that focuses on space zombies). The wiki has a current amount of 933 active articles, not including redirects, and fits all of the requirements. — subtank  ( 7alk ) 18:40, June 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Dead Space Wiki looks like it is generally in great shape.  For a spotlight you would need to drop the main page protection to only protect against anonymous/new users (the vandalism for which it was protected was by an anonymous user, not an established account).  You also have a few uncategorized pages that need sorting out.  Please let me know on my talk page when you have taken care of these and I will be happy to add the wiki to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:18, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

The Sims Wiki
The Sims Wiki is hoping to get a spotlight for sometime in October. We're not sure when we should jump on the list, so earlier seems like a better idea. We want to correspond our spotlight to the release of The Sims 3: Pets expansion pack, which is apparently sometime in October. I'll be sure to bring the exact date of release when it becomes available. Thanks for considering us! --  LostInRiverview talk · blog 01:43, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

Pokemon Wiki
The Pokemon Wiki could use some extra users, we need a little bit of clean up on the items articles, we also want ourselves to be spotlighted for the Unova region incoming info, and Black and White related things, along with info on the new game, Pokedex 3D. We really need a hand on the wiki, and if it gets approved, the wiki will too! I know we have a few uncategorized pages, but that's why we need help as well, that is where we are struggling, but we excel in everything else! --Bullet Francisco, admin, Pokemon Wiki02:04, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

RollerCoaster Tycoon Wiki
Hey, I'm Dolphanatic! Although you probably know me from Coasterpedia, I do a lot of contributions on RCT Wiki too, and like Coasterpedia, most of the wiki's visitors stay for a little while to make a couple edits, then they forget about the site, leaving Hadesengel, Matt_20_1, Zeesims, and I (most of which, including me, are admins) as the majority of contributions. On the brighter side, though, The formatting is consistent and there's also an "Article Creator" to help make creating formatted pages easier. Also I checked the requirements and it fits all the criteria. Thanks in advance! (
