Brothers in Arms Wiki (Accepted)
Hey,

I'd like to take over the Brothers in Arms Wiki as it has been very inactive, in the space of nearly a month only a total of 50 (estimate) edits. I would like to take it over even though I have only edited once or twice cos i am busy on Halopedia and Halo Fanon but I am free now to devot my time to this clearly struggling wiki.

I am Going to approach this differently. Me and a Friend of Mine (Called Forerunner) are now starting to Edit Brother's in Arms Wiki, because it's inactive and almost all of it's edits are I.P Based and it's Admin is inactive(They dont even have a Userpage!), so I would like to devout as much of my time as physicaly possible to helping this wiki.

Thanks,

Gunnery Sergeant   McCallan

Forgot to add I am now creating Templates.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Wiki (Declined)
Hello! I saw some time ago that the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Wiki (w:c:millionaire Millionaire wasn't edited by anyone, barring me (and my IP), for more than 1 year! So, I would like to adopt this wiki. I'll try to do this Wiki bigger.

yugioh wikia fr (Declined)
Hello Staff member

The owner of the French Yu-Gi-Oh Wikia (http://fr.yugioh.wikia.com) is not often connected on his wikia, and useless page are becoming more and more numerous. I asked the rights to delete these pages, but he didn't give it to me and didn't connect for many months, so I'm asking you if you can give me the right to delete these pages.

Thank you for helping me ^^

Goodbye

Ghostbusters Wiki (Accepted)
Ok basically the mod hasn't been back in 2 months, and I'm a pretty big fan of the Wiki. I don't know what happened to the mod, but since he doesn't seem to be coming back, and already one act of vandalism has happened once, I'd like to be the mod, mostly to protect it. My Contributions have been great and I'm asking to be the mod. Devilmanozzy 22:33, 26 January 2009 (UTC)devilmanozzy

Italian ogame wikia (Accepted)
Hello, i'm here to request to be the new sysop for the italian ogame wikia page. The old sysop has opened the project but he has not made anything else. This is my contribution list: http://it.ogame.wikia.com/wiki/Speciale:Contributi/TR_WhiteDragon (and it's still growing)

Universal Fighting System Wikia (Accepted)
Hi. I am requesting to adminship of the UFS TCG Wikia. It has been inactive for quite sometime and I feel I can once again bring it back to life again. I already have the support of some in the UFS player community who will be glad to help me with it so I won't go it alone. I have been a player of the game for the last four years and have been a judge and tournament organizer for the game during that same amount of time.

Thank you for the consideration.

Here is the discussion where I was talking about starting it over: http://new.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_foros_discusion.asp?efid=26&efcid=5&efidt=52983

Here is the last edits from the page: http://ufstcg.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Top/newly_changed

And there is only user admin/sysop who I can't get a hold of: http://ufstcg.wikia.com/wiki/User:Kiyobi

I like to create a Solar Cooking Wiki in Urdu Language, so I need articles etc. I will translate. Your site seems to be ideal material. I have created myself Mediawiki library for Urdu books so I basically know how install and use it. I do have Urdu Language Mediawiki version software. So language is not an issue.

Just Cause Wiki (Accepted)
Hello, I've noticed that the Just Cause Wiki has been inactive for a long time. The admins have all but disappeared and the only other member who does/did anything went away and simply never came back. I feel that this Wiki needs something made of it, as a sequel is coming out soon. As it is currently I've just been editing it on my own, but there are numerous mistakes made by the previous owners (topic titles etc) that I feel need rectifying. Would it be possible to adopt this Wiki? I havn't brought the issue up with any other members of the community, as there ARE no other members of the community. Wiki is found here, my contributions are found here. Thank-you for considering this.
 * C-d-rom 19:34, 28 January 2009 (UTC)


 * you haven't had a chance to welcome users, but hopefully you will soon! All else looks good, so I've made you admin there.  good luck! -- sannse (talk) 14:13, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

tv.wikia.com (Declined)
I was looking for a wiki community dedicated to documenting television shows, and found that you have a listing for exactly what I looking for on your TV page. It's listed as inactive, and the URL seems to redirect to your entertainment hub. I'd be interested in working on such a wiki, and could adopt it if necessary, but it's impossible to put any work into it while it's in this state. Is it possible to revive this project? --Azkar 20:00, 28 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Responded on Azkar's talk page.

Corner Gas Wiki (declined)

 * Hi -- I can't see that you have made any contributions to the wiki yourself. Please look at the adoption criteria at the top of this page; there is a lot you can do for a wiki as a regular user.  Ask us again once you have worked on the wiki for a couple of weeks.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 15:34, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Socialism Wiki (Accepted)
Hello, I am Animelover. I wish to adopt Socialism Wiki: http://socialism.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

I believe I meet all necessary criteria.
 * I am the only active user on the wiki
 * Last activity by the admin,Comrade, was in 2005.
 * This would be the first wiki I would have ever adopted or founded.
 * I have not been blocked on any other wiki
 * I have been working on the wiki since the beginning of January.
 * Their where only a few pages on when I came, all of them deleted by vandals!
 * I created 20 pages, the only 20 pages on the wiki.
 * I have added a vast majority of the images onto the wiki, aside from some added back in 2005 by the original owner, (comrade).
 * When I came to the wiki their was NO WELCOME PAGE it had been deleted by vandals and I created one with the basics, news,featured, etc.
 * I have also added some comments on the talk pages to stimulate discussion when more people arrive.

Overall I have practically made the wiki in it's current form. Since the last activity was in 2005 I feel that I should be allowed to adopt this wiki.

My Contributions: http://socialism.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Animelover --Animelover 05:37, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Mario and Luigi Wikia (not a request)
Basically, this wikia is totally focased on the Mario and Luigi series. It will have heavily detailed storylines itemlists, enemy lists, and more!


 * Hi, are you looking for somewhere to make a request for a new wiki? There is already a wiki on this topic at http://partnersintime.wikia.com - so maybe you would like to start editing there? -- sannse (talk) 14:22, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Request to become admin of Bosstones.wikia.com (accepted)
Currently Louisville12 the admin of this wikia has been inactive since 29 July 2008. I have contacted him on the official Bosstones forums but he hasn't responded. I am the main updater of this wikia for now and would like to become admin so I can have access to delete some unecessary pages and update the main page with a new skin. I haven't been an admin on any other wikia ever and have not been blocked on any. Here is my contributions page which should show that I meet the rest of the criteria for adoption. here Jodocow737 07:15, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

adopting this wiki (Declined)
I am a pokemon fan and came on this wiki to do some research and it said that this wiki is inactive,so I decided to take it under my wing. I am 13 years old.

I believe that I can use my knowledge of pokemon to revive this page. I know every pokemon, every type, every attack, etc. I promise to follow the terms and rules.


 * The Pokemon wiki has active sysops and bureaucrats, adoption also requires a registered account. Please feel free to visit Pokémon and jump right in. -- 16:36, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

GI-Joe Wiki. A wiki for The popular military based toyline of the 1980's which would include information taken from the toys, comics, and animated series of this popular franchise.

Advance Wars Wiki (declined)
I'd like to request to become a Bureaucrat on the Advance Wars Wiki. I am already a Sysop on it and wish to have the extra rights in the event that they are needed. The other Beurocrats/Sysops on the Wiki are unactive and haven't edited in some time. TIA User:Galrauch

Habbo-SWRP.wikia.com Request (withdrawn)
Hello, I am writing here to request the takeover of this wiki. I sent a request for a new wiki but there has been no reply for a while. Please consider it. I have found this site, but it is abandoned, I and another person are the only people who use it and the admin and old members of that community have abandoned it. I would only really like this as a last resort if my wiki request of a new wiki is denied. Please read through this and choose as you wish, I will accept your offer. If I cannot get the new site up, may I take this over and Vice Versa. Thank you!

Yours Hopefully, User:XxPurityxX

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Wiki (On Hold)
I wish to adopt the wiki of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. I read this Manga often, and I also have several friends who are knowledgeable on the Manga and Anime Adaptation who are willing to help. I actually made this Account just to ask to adopt this wiki, as I believe the series is far too good and large to have an inactive Wiki, even though I know I do not qualify right now, I am going to be working on the Wiki for a few more weeks, trying to get it back to speed.


 * Hi -- I think it's great you want to work on this wiki and you've made a nice start. Please continue to work on it; there is a lot you can do as a regular user. We'll check back with you mid-month.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 14:19, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

RuneScape Last Republic (On hold)
Hi,

I would like to occupy the RuneScape Last republic wiki. It has only 3 articles, and I would like to fix that. Thanks, User:Achilles_97


 * You got off to a nice start a couple of days ago -- please keep editing and we'll check back with you in two weeks to see what progress you're making. — Catherine (talk) 17:36, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

BadGabriel 15:14, 3 February 2009 (UTC)BadGabrielBadGabriel 15:14, 3 February 2009 (UTC)


 * If you don't know that it's inactive, then check to see wether it is. If the administrators are active, then USEP wiki is classified as an active wiki, and if you wish to have administrator rights, ask him.--Iner22 17:45, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Dizzywood (Declined)

Please May You Accept My Request


 * Dizzywood is an active wiki with active admins, and not eligible for adoption -- please join in there! — Catherine (talk) 17:36, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Speedwaypedia (On hold)
Hello, I would like to adopt "Speedwaypedia" (pl.speedway.wikia.com), because I'm big fan of the great sport, which speedway is and I'd like to build it from nothing (because the articles there are... uhm... weak. Very weak). The second reason, why i'd like to adopt it is, that this Wikia wasn't edited by almost year. I have a few people, who'll help me to build this Wikia to rank "Wikia of the month" :) I hope, that you'll let me adopt "Speedwaypedia", Delejt. PS. Is the "pl." the part of address, or it means that this version is in polish, and I can make version for other languages? Delejt 20:52, 3 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes, the "pl" is part of the address, and indicates the wiki interface and content is in Polish. It appears that the admin Użytkownik:Bartekstachu sf was quite active there up until two months ago -- if you want to become an admin on the Polish version you might try contacting him using http://pl.speedway.wikia.com/wiki/Specjalna:E-mail/Bartekstachu_sf .   You can start editing while you wait for a reply -- there's a lot that any user can do to improve a wiki, and you will need to meet the guidelines at the top of the page before you can gain the rights.


 * On the other hand, we don't yet have a Speedway wiki in any other languages -- if you'd like to start one please make a request and we'll be happy to create it for you! — Catherine (talk) 17:36, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

The 'Egypt' Wiki
Hey, I visited the Egypt wiki (Egypt.wikia.com) and I noticed that it has not been edited for a while, new pages have not been added lately. So I would like to take the administration of the Egypt wiki. I always study about Egypt it's my favourite country, I'd love to be the new owner of the Egypt wiki and share my knowledge
