Forums: Index &rarr; Adoption requests &rarr;

'''What is your username? BushMonstar.'''

Please link to the wiki here: Battle for Dream Island Wiki. 

'''How many edits have you made on that wiki? I have made 344 edits (With an Average of 6 edits per day).'''

'''How many days/months have you been editing there? I have been editing on the wiki since March 4, 2012, equaling 57 days of working on the wiki.'''

'''On the Special Pages -> Special:ListUsers when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it? Our admin, Mjpj189, last edited on February 17, which means he hasn't edited in 73 days.'''

Any other information: I want to adopt the wiki is because:


 * There are many anonymous users spamming the comments section, or adding bad/false information to the wiki.
 * We have a problem with several users spamming fake pages and blogs that have nothing at all to do with the youtube series Battle for Dream Island.
 * Due to the current lack of an admin, some users (anonymous or not) have felt that they can run free and do whatever they want, type whatever they want, or add any page they want, which, as you'd guess, makes for a very serious problem with spam on the wiki. Only me and a few others actually feel the need to undo this spam, and even then we're very limited due to not being able to remove a lot of it that isn't directly on pages. I'll be the first to admit it: I'm not the most liked person on the wiki. But that's due to the fact that it seems that a majority of the editors on our wiki are people who keep vandalizing, whether they know it or not. I'm liked by the side of the wiki who does a good job at editing and attempting to uphold the wiki. This is why I would like to adopt the Battle for Dream Island wiki.

Even if I'm not given approval for adoption, I would like to thank the Wikia staff for reading this.


 * Hi. Since there are a few other users editing on the wiki, please begin a community discussion about your request so everyone has the chance to help decide the wiki's next admin. If you need help cleaning up spam or vandalism in the meantime, feel free to report it at the VSTF Wiki. Thanks! - Brandon Rhea (talk) 17:55, May 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Alright, I just posted a blog on the wiki asking the users whether or not they'd be fine with me being the admin on the wiki. I already know of one user who'll quickly reject, but that's because he has a tendancy to post spam or stuff that shouldn't be on the wiki, and dislikes me from all the times we've made an attempt at removing the page. It&#39;s not about why, it&#39;s about why not! 22:09, May 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * We only have around 8 or 9 active users, and at that a lot of them are only semi-active, editing only several days or so. I have gotten a small amount of responses from the blog post, and they're positive. It&#39;s not about why, it&#39;s about why not! 01:10, May 2, 2012 (UTC)
