Forum:For the sake of the Monster Hunter Wiki

The head person in charge of the Monster Hunter Wiki is DeathSlayer, but he does absolutely nothing. He even told me last night that he doesnt care for it. He created ONE article since its creation on July the 15th. I on the other hand joined 3 days ago, and created about 40. He shows absolutely no appreciation and does not care whether the wiki will fail or not.

I will actually help the Monster Hunter wiki succeed. Please help me take over the site. If you wish, you can take a look over there and look at all the edits. Youll be surprised. =) PitchBlack696 11:13, 10 July 2007 (UTC)


 * The term isn't actually take over. Wikia wiki are not owned by any one person, an administrator is simply someone who has powers to help the editors in the community. So feel free to continue editing. Since he's inactive that means that the Monster Hunter Wiki could be adopted. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) tricks Jul 10, 2007 @ 13:32 (UTC)

Thanks, I was rushing and I couldn't think of any other term at the moment. If I adopt, I get his powers? And he won't have them anymore? He seems to be a vengeful person... Do I have to wait for staff to come by and approve? PitchBlack696 13:51, 10 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, staff have to approve, and you do get his powahs--not sure if he loses them, but quite possibly, yes. But if you just keep editing like a good user and stick there for aboot a week, you'll adopt it in no time. =D ~ NOTASTAFF -- GPT ( talk )(eating) 16:14, 10 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Ok, sounds good, thanks for the help. One last question though: If the staff were to see all this, wont they forget about it and its situation by the time a week comes around?


 * Also, I've noticed I can't use certain templates on the wiki, why? PitchBlack696 16:23, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Umm...anyone? How do I know staff has approved? Will they come here and tell me? PitchBlack696 15:09, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Can someone please verify whether I am the admin of this wiki or not?

http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

I've noticed I've been able to do more things, such as edit the main page, which I don't think I've had the ability to do since yesterday. But there are some things which either, I dont know how to do it, or I just cant, like deleting a page or editing the monobook.

How do you know if youre an admin of a wiki? PitchBlack696 12:48, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Go to the Special Pages: User List on your wiki and find your user name, it will have the notation "(sysop)" after the name. Anyone with the SYSOP privileged is the administrator on the wiki. Tjoneslo 13:39, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh okay thanks. Is this the right place to request adminship?
 * 'Cause no one's helping me out here relating to that. PitchBlack696 14:32, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


 * If you're interested in adopting the wiki, you should contact Wikia staff directly using the contact form. You'll be granted sysop and bureaucrat permissions if approved.--Imaginationac (Talk | Edits | [mailto:imaginationac@gmail.com Email]) 22:51, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


 * I already tried that the other day when I first came here. I filled out the form, but when I pressed SEND, it moved on but the page just stayed white.. nothing happened. Same thing today. Maybe I need to activate something on my computer? Any other suggestion? PitchBlack696 02:42, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Post to mailing list (wikia-l), and hopefully a staff will get to you.--Imaginationac (Talk | Edits | [mailto:imaginationac@gmail.com Email]) 03:04, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * If you have been active on that wiki and doing contributions for a while you can contact Community Team and request to one of them but be advice they will review your contributions on that wiki so better have requirements. And then just wait for them to answer as they can be sometimes very busy--Cizagna (Talk) 04:19, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
