Adoption:King Harkinian Wiki

Adoption requests →

What is your username? Werdoland.

Please link to the wiki here: King Harkinian Wiki.

How many edits have you made on that wiki? 1,126 as of this request.

How many days/months have you been editing there? Ten months.

On the Special Pages → Special:ListUsers when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it? DevinMoffit made his last edit on April 15. His only activity on the wiki since then has been to give me permission to become an administrator.

Any other information: DevinMoffit is the King Harkinian Wiki's founder and only administrator, and with him inactive, there are no users who can maintain the wiki by updating the main page, protecting or deleting pages, blocking users, and deleting unused images. As I said before, he has given me permission to become an administrator, but he wouldn't or couldn't help me himself. I have made more edits on the King Harkinian Wiki than any user besides DevinMoffit. There are other editors who have been active on the wiki recently, so I notified the community of my intention to become an administrator on my user blog. So far, nobody has objected.

An anonymous editor who calls himself "Lorcan" has been editing on the wiki since last October and adding a lot of content about certain characters he likes, to the point where they essentially dominate the wiki. While he was still active, DevinMoffit asked Lorcan to tone down his writing style before trying to compromise by creating a new wiki for him, but Lorcan has never changed his behavior. Simply blocking Lorcan would likely be ineffective because his IP address is constantly changing, so I believe protecting certain pages would help the wiki.

There are also many unneeded images on the wiki that were added by a vandal. The VSTF helped by blocking this user, but the images remain.

EDIT: DevinMoffit made some new edits in the last few days, so I guess I'll have to try talking to him again.


 * Hi Werdoland. You are correct that the wikia is inelgible for adoption right now, but let me know on my wall if DevinMoffit disappears again without responding to your message about rights.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 16:11, July 3, 2014 (UTC)
