 * Nice work, I've given you the admin rights. Please keep working on building this wiki up, it's off to a neat start!  — Catherine (talk) 05:01, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for posting again.. (On hold)
Hello, I posted a week ago my request to be admin of the Spanish Wikia (my request is the number 62 of this page) and I was told that it would be ok but I needed the agreement from "Unomas" and "No Heart" that are the most active users (after me).

I asked Unomas and No Heart and they said that they want me as admin and they wrote it on my request post "Kingdom Hearts wiki" the number 62 from this page some days ago. The point is that I haven't had any answer from the admins from this site since then. So I write this because I think that unfortunately no one saw my request with the agreement of the community because some other wikis request have been answered and mine is still (on hold). If I need something else to be admin please tell me.

Sorry for posting again and thank you for your attention --PaS NaS 17:43, November 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, thank you for giving me admin rights but I have a couple of doubts: The first one: why have I vanished from my wiki community? The second one: am I beurecrat or only admin? because I would like to give admin rights to some users.
 * this is the wiki http://es.kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/ Thank you for your attention ;) --PaS NaS 23:45, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, you are welcome. I have just set your status to admin & bureaucrat, so you should be good to go. Let me know if you have any other requests. Cheers, --Sarah (talk 23:51, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

DragonBall Online (Accepted)
http://dragonball-online.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_Ball_Online_Wiki
 * Is the wiki inactive? There is one other user making changes, but they are fixing character descriptions from the original series not adding info about the game.


 * Are you eligible to adopt? Yes.


 * Are you contributing to the wiki's content? Yes I took part in both closed beta 1, and 2 for the Korean version, and have been updating the class section with full skill guides, and translations, along with multiple pictures. My main reason for attempting to adopt this wiki is so I can edit the side-bar to be more efficient.


 * Are you building the community? There currently isn't a blog opened for DBO, but I have encouraged many of ym community members to assist with the wiki. Once the wiki becomes presentable I plan to site this wiki to any new player to DBO to asist them in both playing in a foreign language, and just as a general source.

Thank you for your time.NeroJinous!


 * Hello NeroJinous! I have given you admin and bureaucrat rights. Use them well and good luck! Sarah (talk 21:22, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

Aviation Wiki (on hold)
I would like to make a request to adopt Wikifly (http://aviation.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page) which is currently inactive. I have a strong passion for flight and flight technology, and I am also a certified glider pilot, so I think my expertise would be put to good use. The articles that were there prior to my arrival were woefully incomplete: a few sentences at most and the majority are redirects. Therefore, as I have made a sizable amount of contributions, I think I would be well suited and I hope you consider me. Sincerely, --Mr.Aviation 20:35, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * Do you mean w:c:aviation? It really helps Catherine and the Community team if you provide a link to the wiki. -- 08:56, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Roswell (Accepted)
As it has been abandoned, I would like to take over Roswell wiki, I have seen every episode of Roswell and I have experience on wiki's.

Homer-simpson 20:55, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * w:c:roswell? It seems there is an active community there, with a user close to 1000 edits. You should discuss as a community new admin rights. -- 08:59, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * The community has not been active for six months and this user last edited in may. All the recent edits are mine. Homer-simpson 16:21, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * The day I asked for adminship of this wiki this user started editing again. Perhaps you should give the both of us adminship of Roswell wiki as he is not an admin. Homer-simpson 16:25, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * That sounds like a better idea :D -- 16:29, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks. So is it accepted or not? The other user that i think should be an admin's user name is CadmiumX99.Homer-simpson 21:18, November 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Have you contacted CadmiumX99? It would be good to get their input before the rights are given. If you both agree on who or if both should become admins, I can make the change. Thanks! Sarah (talk 21:35, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * I left a message on thier talk page and i am awaiting a responce. Homer-simpson 22:13, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, great. Lets give them some time to get back to you and we can decide from there. Thanks! --Sarah (talk 22:22, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

Eddsworld Wiki (Accepted)
Hello there! I'm the Head Administrator and Community Liaison of http://www.eddsworld.co.uk A long time ago, a fan of Eddsworld decided to create the Eddsworld Wiki (without the permission of Eddsworld), sadly this member was very inexperienced with Wikia's and was unable to grant anyone Bureaucrat permissions. He has since been inactive for 10 months now.

It's going to be a pain for me to have to migrate all the data to a Mediawiki hosted on our own site if we're unable to secure the Wikia, so this is our last attempt.

I plan on making full use of the Wikia, and bringing organization to it's currently dilapidated state. (which has since been quite hard without any proper permissions)

Aside from my position on Eddsworld, I feel that the current Bureaucrat has been gone long enough for the position to be open to anyone.

Thank you for taking the time to read.

- Simsarmy 22:30, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hello, there seems to be a couple of editors who have been contributing in the last month. If you could start a community thread that engages these users, and they agree that you should be given admin rights, I am happy to grant them. Best, --Sarah (talk 23:08, November 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, in my personal opinion, there has only been one continuous active member editing the Wikia since the start of November, and that would be Trap Wolf, who has given me permission in this topic: Eddsworld Wikia Forums, the rest of the members have made one or two edits then become inactive. ~ Simsarmy 23:16, December 1, 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for having the community discussion. We think its important to have these decisions be transparent to the community, especially as you move forward, even if it is a bit annoying. ;) I have given you admin and bureaucrat rights, enjoy! --Sarah (talk 19:01, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Habbo Wiki (Accepted)
I would like to adopt the Habbo Wiki. The wiki is somewhat active, only a few edits and changes every few days. Many pages have poor content: Some have too little information, some pages are clearly a joke, for example, one page talks about "cyber sex" which is totally unrelated, and some pages are about actual Habbos, which I doubt is not allowed.

'''Is the wiki inactive? '''A few users, excluding me, are making very few changes. Occasionally, there will be at least 1 user making changes. The only admin is very inactive. The latest edit he's made was since July 2009.

'''Are you eligible to adopt? '''Yes.

'''Are you contributing to the wiki's content? '''Yes, I've made about 10 new pages since I've posted this, and many edits as well.

Thank you for considering me, and I hope, that with my admin and bureaucrat rights, I can help maintain the wiki and keep it up and running!

Adult Swim Wikia (Accepted)
The Adult Swim Wikia says it is up for adoption, but I'm not entirely sure if it still is.

Is the wiki inactive? Mostly, apart from me and sometimes one other user.

Administrator Position Possible for "Medium Wiki"? (Accepted)
Hello: I was wondering if it was at all possible to get a Maintainer Position for the Medium Wiki? Outside of last night, there has been little to no activity on the Wiki since September 2009. Please let me know as soon as you get to this message. Lily Ford 19:40, December 3, 2009 (UTC)


 * Hello Lily, I have given you admin and bureaucrat rights. Good luck with editing on the Medium Wiki. One suggestion, your user page looks good now, but you might want to add a bit more to it so folks know you are the go to person on that wiki. For a great example, check out this user page: Xean   Also, a great place to make changes is in the community corner. You can see an good example one on the my home tab (lower right corner), when you visit the True Blood Wiki. Cheers, --Sarah (talk 19:11, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll do that and do my best to get the Wiki up and running on its feet (its been over a year since I've done any MAJOR editing and alot of things seemed to have changed, if only aesthetically, on Wikia.com, so I'm slowly relearning the ropes).Lily Ford 00:43, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I am currently bureaucrate for French site of Stargate Wiki. I would like to inhérit the bureaucrate and admin rights for the french Heroes Wiki for the same reason. I didn't edit yet for this site but I would build it correctly from scratch. By the way, is it possible to enable the Dynamic Page List function on this wiki please? Thanks for your answer. --LIMAFOX76 10:27, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

These can be really helpful in welcoming new editors. Cheers, --Sarah (talk 19:17, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

Photoshop Wiki (Accepted)
Photoshop Wiki

I think there is a lot of potential for this wiki and it definitely needs work. There isn't any active admins currently and I wouldn't mind taking up the responsibility. Not to mention there is some maintenance that needs to be done that I can't do as a regular user. I have begun some of the articles hand edited a few things, if you need me to contribute a bit more before giving my adminship then just say so and I will :). I have admin experience, I am a sysop over at the english Fable Wiki and a bcrat on Guild Wars Guilds. -- GW-Shadowphoenix  (talk) 18:32, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

The Legacy of Kain wiki
Hello, I would like to request adoption of the Legacy of Kain wiki. It's currently in poor shape, with just one other semi-regular editor and reams of fan content and spam. Its original admin has not been around in years. So far I've made just a few edits as I would first like to revamp the .css interface and make it less painful to work on before working with other maintenance. If it matters, I've also adopted the Might and Magic wiki and given its graphics a going over.

As for building the community, a newly-registered user and I have been rallying the Nosgothic Realm fansite for a few volunteers; prospects look good but will go nowhere while the thing remains so unsightly. I will be happy to build content until the wiki becomes a truly reliable resource but there is little else that can be done without bureaucrat rights. Thanks for reading, --Dubiel 22:09, December 4, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hello, thanks for the request. Can you check with the other active editors (I see two that have been involved since Nov), and make sure they are okay with you getting the rights? If they give the green light, I can give you the rights. Cheers, --Sarah (talk 19:55, December 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * Understood, I was planning to check with Prison Keeper, but judging from his/her contribs page, s/he is not an English speaker. Not quite sure who the other editor is, Mr.Quackman perhaps. Anyway, I've just left messages on their pages for solid confirmation; we'll see if there's a response. Thanks --Dubiel 20:42, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Russian WoWWiki (Accepted)
I would like to become bureaucrat of http://ru.wow.wikia.com because our bureaucrat is inactive.

Is the wiki inactive?: It is poor active. I'm a sysop of this wiki.

So at this time, we can not give you admin rights. Best, --Sarah (talk 20:58, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

I Wanna Be the Guy Wiki
I would like to request to adopt the I Wanna Be the Guy Wiki. There has been little activity on it except my attempts to improve it. I would do this under the account I used on it, but I forgot the password and did not register an email adress. However, this is a very similarly named account and anyone who knows me would know that Komodo Dragons go with Dragenah like penut butter and chocolate. Komodo Dragenah 20:33, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

The House of the Dead Wiki (Accepted)
I want to try and clean up The House of the Dead wiki but there seems to be hardly any active members. Over the past 30 days there have been less than 30 edits (other than myself) and most of them are from anonymous users. There are duplicate pages and redirects that need to be deleted, but the bureaucrat of the wiki has not made an edit in over a year. It is an abandoned wiki that I feel that I could clean up. ---Oranejo 00:48, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Cloud Nine Wiki (Accepted)
I would like to adopt this wiki. The admin has been inactive for a long period of time, and it is extremely unorganized. I have sent a message to the admin but I don't believe that the admin will be coming online anytime soon. I have noticed some registered and some unregistered members contribute information to the wiki. I would like to take charge and improve the overall quality of the resources and style that has been presented by the wiki.

Creative Sci-Fi Wiki
I would like to adopt Creative Sci-Fi Wiki. There are not many active users, only two that I know of and I am one of them. The other seems to think Creative Sci-Fi Wiki is the place for his fan fiction, which it isn't, at least according to the creator of the wiki. The original creator and administrator of the wiki is nowhere to be found and hasn't contributed to the wiki in over a year. I would simply like to take up his responsibilities and become an administrator. Here are my contributions. --Rojixus 00:33, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Controversypedia (Accepted)
Hello, Javilus here. I would like to adopt Controversypedia, as no user activity other than mine was made recently. Everyone on that wiki just left. I think it would be great to revive the wiki for collecting reports in the media, and view it to everyone. When I went onto the wiki, there was only one written article, made months ago. Send me a message if I should adopt the wiki. --Javilus 01:39, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

iPhone Games Wiki (Accepted)
I would like to adopt the iPhone Games Wiki and become a Bureaucrat.

Is the wiki inactive? Yes. There are no regular contributors to the Wiki and the 2 admins have not edited for a long time. It has not been 60 days, but the situation is very bad. Also, there has been massive vandalism on the Wiki recently, which is why I am making this request. There are no active admins around to deal with this, so we have a few users who regularly vandalise the Wiki. Although I can revert edits that they make, I can do nothing more than request deletion for spam pages, of which many have been made.

Are you eligible to adopt? Technically, no. Although I have never been blocked on a Wiki, U have recently been made an admin on another Wiki. However, we are facing serious vandalism problems and I feel that by adopting the Wiki, I can help stop the vandalism that has been plaguing the Wiki. I sent a message to Wiki Staff (with the link at the side). I received an e-mail telling me to request an adoption, which is why I am here.

Are you contributing to the wiki's content? Although I am relatively new, I have started editing the Wiki as much as I can. I have made edits to lots of pages, created a few myself and am working on templates and categories.

Are you building the community? Yes, as far as possible. There is no real community there but I have posted on the Forums encouraging other people to talk and help with the Wiki. I also have said that I am willing to help anyone who needs it.

Requesting Admin Status for The Name of the Wind Wiki (Accepted)
Hi, I'm Gaylesking.

I recently stumbled upon a seemingly forlorn site, the Name of the Wind Wiki. It's condition was disappointing to me (it had four articles at the time), especially since I immensely enjoyed reading the Name of the Wind. As far as I can tell, the sites founder has been inactive for quite a while, so I'm requesting admin status to take on the responsibilities of the site. I've done my best to improve the existing articles and to make new ones, but free time for me is a rare thing. I hope to do more work on it soon; tackling the necessary major articles before working into the smaller ones. Thank you for considering,

--Gaylesking Gaylessignature.png Talk. I will listen. 05:51, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

Star Frontiers Wiki (Accepted)
I have stumbled across a Wiki for Star Frontiers - a science fiction role-playing setting. When I found it, it was abandoned without an administrator, lacking a lot of solid content (being a dumping ground for miscellaneous content), and only two newcomers editing it (me, and a user named Zeb Ulon).

Me (Malcadon) and Zeb Ulon have been actively adding content to make it a more complete information resource site for Star Frontiers. I initially assumed their was an administrator, until Zeb asked me to help get the SF wiki adopted. We are hoping for co-administration.

I'm also a member of a Star Frontiers community called "The Revival" by the fans. This dedicated group actively supports, and helps develop the fiction through a fan-zine called the Star Frontiersman. This group has the potential to develop the wiki exponentially!

- I'm Zeb Ulon and I endorse the statement above ;o)

Adoption Request http://thewarlords.wikia.com
I would like to adopt the warlords wikia page located at http://thewarlords.wikia.com/wiki/The_Warlords_Wiki

The community is currently hosted on the facebook discussion board for The Warlords (http://apps.facebook.com/the-warlords-app)

I am one of the original community members and very active in the facebook Warlords community and would like to move our game documentation, faqs, and other data here to wikia. When I found the current warlords page on wikia, it appears to have been abandoned. While I could start modifying it myself, it makes more sense to adopt the page also. The original Warlords page on Wikia doesn't even look like it was setup properly since it still has the generic stuff on the front page.

Thanks!

Rocket Power Wiki
I'd like to be a bureaucrat on the Rocket Power wiki. I've been a fan of the show for a long time, and consider myself pretty knowledgeable about the subject matter.

Myself, a couple of friends, and the occasional helpful anon have been contributing from time to time. I attempted some while ago to communicate my interest to the original founding admin, but so far have not received a response.

I have been adding content to the wiki, and have been telling other people I know within the fandom about it. Admittedly, getting new participation would have been much easier a few years ago during the series' original run, but every once in a while one gets pleasantly surprised.

With much appreciation, knoodelhed 07:58, December 12, 2009 (UTC)

Glee wikia
There has been some vandalism on Glee wikia and four of the users have agreed that we should be admins as we have been contributing for some time and our admin in currently unactive.

Mugen Wiki
I would like to adopt the Mugen Wiki, as it has become inactive. I frequently visit this wiki, adding new pages and editing the existing ones to remove spam and any traces of vandalism. I have edited several pages on this wiki already, and the topic that it covers is broad enough that I would be able to add large amounts of new material to the site with minimal difficulty. I pay strict attention to detail, and will work hard to get this wiki thriving again.

Medium Wiki
I am Dowsiewuwu and I am the founder of the Medium wiki. I noticed that I have administrative privileges but not bureaucratic ones for the Wiki. I would like to participate more into the Medium Wiki and qualify other users to help, but I cannot do that unless I can do as most as I can do for the Wiki. Please reply as soon as possible to this request, and to the Bones Wiki request as well. --Dowsiewuwu 22:20, December 12, 2009 (UTC)

Bones Wiki
I would like to adopt the Bones Television Series Wiki as administrator and bureaucrat. It is apparently only being run by one admin, and it doesn't seem like it's getting anywhere, I have watched the show from the start, and I know that the Wiki could do so much better than it is now if more than one person were to work on it. --Dowsiewuwu

Admin Burecraut Rights For Gamecube Wiki
This is not actually a adoption request but i am asking for Admin and Burecraut rights for the Enlgish GameCube Wiki URL: www.gamecube.wiki.com There was a terrible misunderstanding today when one of the Wikia Staff Members took away my admin and burecraut options becasue of editing, the wiki was inactive and I was using It as a testing wiki. We resolved the problem but the staff member logged out before she could give me my admin and bur options back. I am the owner of the English GameCube Wiki and I need my bur and admin rights/options back for fixing wiki purposes. Please accept as this was a terrible misunderstanding. --Sirnot 02:00, December 13, 2009 (UTC) PS-By mistake I made this edit not logged in, im Sirnot1, the owner, not the IP addresse

Irregular Webcomic Wiki
I have just recently joined this wiki http://irregularwebcomic.wikia.com/ and I have noticed it has been over 6 months since any activity has been done by the admins and any real work started. In my first day here already I have made 2 new articles and atleast put minor descriptions on several others. I would like to request adoption of Irregular Webcomic Wiki on the grounds of Neglegence, and inactivity on behalf of the owner and admins.

Am I elegible to adopt?

Yes

Are you contributing to the wiki's content?

Yes as I said I have already created 2 new articles and I am working on more i will update this post when i write more.

Are you building the community?

I am trying I have attempted to talk to the current owner but the last edit he made was over 1 year ago. I have been talking to Sannse http://irregularwebcomic.wikia.com/wiki/User:Sannse who is on your staff and is the one who recomended to me that I attempt to adopt this wiki.

My Plans

My plans are to have every Main character written about and every topic atleast being a stub by the end of January, to accomplish this I have the following plans in mind.

1. Promptly elect admins to help out with the work and spread the word to every active user we have to start writing and try to get others to join.

2. Give out awards to those who do a lot of work as incentives, have a featured user each month.

3. Run contests to encourage others to join and take more part in the community.

4. Allow unregistered people to edit minor articles so that more work can get done, however they will be encouraged to join.

5. It will be helpful to have your cooperation on this, to feature this wiki in your ads (ex. the ones featured at the bottom of the wiki.)

Thank you for your time in reading this.

So I was wondering if I could possibly adopt the wiki?

Animal Crossing Wiki
Good evening. I contacted Wikia through this about becoming an admin on this wikia (http://animalcrossing.wikia.com/wiki/Animal_Crossing_Wiki) a while ago. I became an admin, but I regret to have to ask to become a bureacrat. The current and only bureacrat has gone missing, so I'm wondering if it is at all possible to swap my adminship to bureaucrat? Sorry to have to ask again, but in order to make some users an admin and keep the wikia alive, it is needed. I'm one of the main editors at the moment, so in a way I'm considered to be in charge as the only active admin. Thanks for your help :) MerrytonRyan 23:38, December 13, 2009 (UTC)

Wackypedia
I've been editing Wackypedia. I would like to adopt it because I can handle the powers and the wiki has no active admins, no sustained editing by other users and many have been vandalizing it. Dancing Penguin  (Talk!) (Contribs) (Edits) 00:28, December 14, 2009 (UTC)

Gruntipedia
Can I adopt Gruntipedia. The staff is rarely active (they have edited within the last 60 days, but only five times). The wiki is in dire need of help. Without a staff, the wiki is pretty much being "spammed" with low quality articles and most of the articles are not getting deleted.  AndFTW! Spam me My crap 02:19, December 14, 2009 (UTC)

RareWiki
I would like to make an adoptions request for the Rare Wiki (located here). It was founded by a user of the Super Mario Wiki to seperate the Banjo-aspect of the wiki from the Mario-aspect. The wiki in question (the Rare Wiki) is horribly inactive, so I am requesting to adopt it. Here are some of the reasons why I feel I should be able to adopt it:


 * Is the wiki inactive?
 * No sustained editing by other users
 * Only an edit made by an unregistered member and myself.
 * Admins have been inactive for 60 days
 * The only Admin there (Wayoshi) has not made an edit since 2007.
 * Are you eligible to adopt?
 * You have not founded, adopted or been given admin access on another wiki in the last 60 days
 * This is true.
 * You have not been blocked on another Wikia project
 * This is also true.
 * Are you contributing to the wiki's content?
 * You have edited on the wiki (the more the better)
 * I have really only made one contribution, but nobody else besides that one unregistered user and the Wikia bot has made any edits.
 * You have created at least one new page (the more the better)
 * This, however, is not true.
 * Are you building the community?
 * You make an effort to talk to other users -- you've left friendly and encouraging messages on user talk pages and responded to questions on article talk pages, forums, or blogs.
 * There really is no community as far as I can see (they have left).
 * You keep the wiki looking well-tended and up to date -- update news sections, add new pictures and videos related to the topic, etc.
 * I will try to do my best.
