Forum:Wiki Adoption

I have a wiki that I no longer have the heart to work on, as I let someone else "help" (he actually took it over), a decision which I greatly regret. Is someone else willing to adopt my wiki? (I have it up for adoption for anyone other than the current person whom has ruined it, of course.)

I will admit too, that I probably should have worked more on it myself, but I have lost the interest in the subject dealt.

It is a wiki on Sonic the Hedgehog and Super Mario, and it will need a LOT of love; a lot of the pages are rather... poorly written and contain NO information. I will need to eliminate some personal files I have on my profile and ban this user before I hand the keys over to someone else.


 * Dear Sophie,


 * Even tough it my sound harsh, leaving the wiki is your best call. There are thousands of wiki's abandoned througout Wikia and some of them get people interested in the subject landing on them, and making edits, adopting and more. Sometimes that takes a few weeks, other times it can be up to 4 years of hardly any activity on a wiki. No problems with that.


 * Every single wiki becomes available after the administrator/ bureaucrat hasn't been editing for 6 weeks or more. Even after such a short time staff recommends contacting the former bureaucrat/ admin before going through the adoption process.


 * So leaving it and not edit on it anymore, focusing on other things is ok. It's a natural process for any wiki that people come and go, and quite a lot get left behind without any editors for some time. Don't feel bad about it. It's not worth your time to do so.
