Adoption:Orson Scott Card Wikia (2)

Adoption requests →

What is your username? MavikVCT

Please link to the wiki here: http://ansible.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

How many edits have you made on that wiki?

350 edits.

How many days/months have you been editing there?

Since December 29, 2015

On the Special Pages → Special:ListAdmins when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it?

There are four Admins on the wiki:


 * December 30, 2015 -->Teenbat (Replying to my post on his wall, not actually contributing)
 * June 20, 2006 --> Taalcon
 * April 28, 2014 --> NoodleGuy
 * December 30, 2015 -->123chess456 (Replying to a post on Teenbat's wall, not actually contributing)

Any other information:

This wiki is a mess, and there are no active, dedicated members who are fixing it. In the few days I've been there, I have done hundreds of edits to bring it up to shape, however there are some things I'm unable to do because I'm not an admin.

I see that this page was requested to be adopted recently, but the user who requested has not been active recently, and hasn't done many edits(the majority of which are edits to their own page)

I messaged Teenbat, an admin, on his wall, but he could not give me admin status because he is not a burecrat. Here is his reply: '' I'm sorry, I'm only an admin. Only bureaucrats can give admin status. What I would suggest is continuing to make edits as you can, and then requesting adoption at the Community Wiki. ''

I haven't edited here for 2+ years, which I regret considering I joined doing the same thing you are.

''Anyway, good luck. You have my permission to link to this message in your adoption request.''

Here is the link to his wall, so you can see the post. http://ansible.wikia.com/wiki/Message_Wall:Teenbat

Thanks.

Admins here at Community Central, please humor me, is this the correct way to submit another adoption request when the original post has not been officially taken care of by the Staff? I just want to understand, cuz personally I think it's hella rude to just make the request, originally filed by User:Aaron Warner-Perfection, a new and different one. True, Lyra is not qualified to adopt so soon in the first place, but nonetheless, it WAS her post; if you wanted to compete adopting the same wiki, shouldn't you at least create your OWN request?

 * About that...I've never requested adoption before, so when I saw that the page was already created, I looked at it to see what it was about. I saw she was turned down, and since I didn't think/know about creating one with (2) in it, I just replaced her information with mine. Obviously that was a bad idea, but as soon as I realized I should have just created a second one, I knew I couldn't revert this page, so it would end up having two duplicate pages. The best I could do was rename it to (2). I do apologize. --MavikVCT 10:04, January 1, 2016 (EST)
