Johnson and Friends Wiki
Hello I am ElsbridgeStationFan1995 and I would like to submit my wiki for the spotlight. The wiki has exactly 200 pages and we have anything about Johnson and Friends here. So could you please consider us for the spotlight? --— Michael  Alive Since 1995!  00:43, January 14, 2014 (UTC)


 * Congratulations on reaching 200 pages! Unfortunately, in order to be spotlighted the wiki needs to have 200 non-stub pages, which, roughly speaking should be longer than 300bytes.  Right now nearly half of your pages are shorter than this. Please feel free to ask again when you have had a chance to build the wiki content a bit more! -- Wendy  (talk ) 03:16, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

The Gems:A Magical Adventure And Teenage Dreams Wiki
I am an administrator on that wiki our wiki has 228 pages, Which means it can be spotlighted.

Please reply as soon as possible

 * Hi. The Gems:A Magical Adventure and Teenage Dreams Wiki looks good, but in order to be spotlighted it needs to have 200 non-stub pages, or pages longer than 300 bytes.  Right now it has a few too many stubs. Please let me know on my wall when you have had a chance to strengthen the content and I will check again.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 03:44, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Role Play Wiki (approved)

 * Requester = admin: this is the case - w:c:roleplay:special:listadmins (Yatalu)
 * 200+ articles and less than 1/5 stubs: 190 of 1073 articles are stub
 * Picture + links on unprotected main page: w:c:roleplay:Role Play Wiki - 10 small pictures linking to important categories, unprotected
 * 100% categorized, clear cat structure: we had 40+ uncategorized pages, I brought this down to less than 10, but can't think up categories for these last few. For the rest we have a fair amount of "main categories" linked from Category:Content.
 * No upheavals: the community guidelines have been put up for a vote since a month ago, but there is nothing active going on around them.
 * Welcome tool: user and anon welcome messages have both been customized.
 * Community corner: w:c:roleplay:MediaWiki:Community-corner has been customized as well.
 * Customized skin: I think this one is in order too (:
 * Safe for work: I think so, yes - no appropriate files or language as far as I'm aware.

Looking forward to it! YATTA ヽ( ° ヮ° )ﾉ ☆ |　2014年01月17日、07:40:56


 * Hi. Roleplay Wiki is in great shape (I really like your main page) and Ive added it to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy  (talk ) 03:53, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

RPOFA Wiki
Hello, I am Emily (admin) at RPOF: http://rpofa.wikia.com | I am here askimg for the opprotunity for our wiki to be spotlighted. We are here to save the United States of America! We, the membership of the Royalist Party of America, commit ourselves to the establishment of a constitutional monarchy for the United States of America. It is our belief that to create a true sense of trust between the governed and the government, our nation's leader must be above the politics of the day, beholden to no special interest group, and free to do what must be done for the good of all Americans, not just the party he or she leads. Emily MolloyEmily Molloy 00:18, January 18, 2014 (UTC).


 * Hi. I'm sorry, but in order to be spotlighted through this request form, wikis must meet our Spotlight request "best practices", including a customized appearance and at least 200 non-stub content pages. It looks like you have just started your wiki, so please ask again when you have had a chance to work on it and build it up a bit more.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 03:58, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Carrie Underwood Wiki
carrieunderwood.wikia.com

BlownAway2012 (talk) 16:21, January 23, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello. Carrie Underwood Wiki looks great, however it does not quite meet the spotlight criteria. You have about 50 uncategorized pages.  You also have over 100 stub-length (shorter than 300 byte) pages; that is nearly a third of your content.  For a spotlight you would need to strengthen the content so only 1/5th of it is stub-length -- or about 65 pages right now. Please let me know on my wall when you have had a chance to work on this and I will check again.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 04:47, January 29, 2014 (UTC)

The Boondocks IC (approved)
Hi this is Sondow209 from the Boondocks IC wiki and I was wondering if my wiki could get a spotlight because of the upcoming new Season coming this April 21st. The Boondocks IC Wiki If you could please use this photo. Sondow209 (talk) 22:07, January 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. Boondocks Wiki looks good. For a spotlight I would need to ask that you take care of a the uncategorized pages on the wiki.  I am curious though, if the series starts in April, do you want the spotlight now? Or closer to when it starts?  Let me know what you think; once the pages are categorized I will be happy to add the wiki to the approved list if you are sure you want the spotlight now.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 04:52, January 29, 2014 (UTC)

I have categorized the pages and the series is about to air a new season. We would like to have a spotlight. Sondow209 (talk) 16:46, March 26, 2014 (UTC)

SpongeBob SquarePants
Hello, I am CalzoneManiac, a bureaucrat on The SpongeBob Wiki. Right now we have just hit below the 20% mark and I think a spotlight would do us mighty fine. CalzoneManiac (talk) 11:42, January 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. The SpongeBob SquarePants wiki looks great. For a spotlight we would need to ask that you sort out the uncategorized pages, and lower the main page settings to only block new and unregistered users. Please let me know on my wall when you have taken care of these and I will be happy to add the wiki to the approved spotlight list! -- Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 05:01, January 29, 2014 (UTC)

Munkapedia, the Alvin and the Chipmunks Wiki (approved)
This would be the first time the wiki's been spotlighted. We have a new series and film being release next year so the extra editors would be nice to get the current pages polished before then. You can use.


 * I am the active Admin.
 * 658 total articles. 24 shorter than 300 bytes, 23 are marked as stubs.
 * Main page has multiple images and links. Not sysop-protected.
 * Navigation / Special:UncategorizedPages.
 * No upheavals.

Rambo Wiki
I think this wiki should be spotlit because it has over 200 articles all of which should be over 300 bytes.

Reasons to consider Rambo Wiki

 * I was never made the admin (despite having over 2000 edits) but still contribute and make sure the wiki is in good shape. It still has a ways to go but I hope this promotion helps to attract fans.
 * Main page has multiple images and links.
 * Navigation / Special:UncategorizedPages.
 * No upheavals.
 * http://www.rambo.wikia.com/, 216 articles.

(Votesmall (talk) 04:35, February 9, 2014 (UTC))


 * Hi. In order to have a spotlight the wikia will need an active admin.  I checked and it appears you tried to re-open your previous adoption request last fall, but I never saw it as it was still in the "completed" category.  Please create a new adoption request if you are still interested in gaining the rights.  Once there is an admin the wikia can request a spotlight.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 05:47, February 12, 2014 (UTC)

Steven Universe Wiki
Hello at the Steven Universe Wiki we'd like spotlight to better advertise the Steven Universe wiki. We need this because we've had a small downfall in the daily activity ever since the Winter hiatus and would like to bring some new users to the community. We meet all of the requirments as only 32 pages out of our 204 have less then 300 bytes, all of our pages are categorized, we allow no foul language, and the wiki is fully customized.

(Please note that the wiki is currently lagging so rather then having 204 pages shown at the top it only says we have 197 but hopefully it will be cleared by the time you read this)

Anyway for the picture we'd like it to be this and we'd like it to say "Get ready to believe in Steven!" Thanks---User:Killer365


 * Hi. Steven Universe Wiki looks good (and very purple :) ), and congratulations on reaching 200 pages! Unfortunately, in order to have a spotlight it needs to have 200 non-stub content pages. The 1/5th rule kicks in once you are at 250 pages or more.  Please work on strengthening the content a bit more (you are nearly there!) so there are a full 200 non-stub content pages, and then feel free to ask again! -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 05:51, February 12, 2014 (UTC)

Clone Wars Wiki (approved)
Hey, I am Evanf and I am requesting a spotlight for the Clone Wars Wiki. We have grown a lot in size, but we have lost some people too. And Season 6, the final season, is coming up in less then a month, and it would be great to have a spotlight for it. We would like for you to use the photo to the right, and for it to say "Season 6 comes out March 7!" or something like that. There are 0 uncategorized pages, The main page is well laid out, we have less then a third of articles are stubs. I think those are all the requirements. Thank you for your consideration. <font face="Edwardian Script ITC" size="5" color="black" >Evanf 14:55, February 15, 2014 (UTC)

Watch Dogs wiki (approved)
So, I, JBanton, have been working on this wiki, known as Watch Dogs Wiki for a while and now would like for it have a spotlight. We've been trying to create the most informative resource on the internet concerning the game(s). The wiki currently has around 205 content pages, but I would like to bring forth these details; I hope that the wiki meets the criteria to be eligible for a spotlight. If not, then I'll happily be informed on how the wiki can progress. Thanks
 * Active admin - yes, I am.
 * 200 pages/ stubs - over 200 exist, of which only 10 or less are lighter than 300 bytes.
 * Main page - four linked images, one video and no protection. Also a number of widgets have been added too.
 * Categories - many are in place, and no articles are uncategorised.
 * Upheavals, none in history or at the moment to report. A feedback tool and community noticeboard are also in place.
 * Welcome - @sysop is in place, and I personally greet members as well, just to make them feel at home.
 * Community corner - has custom headings and an additional link to the manual of style.
 * Custom skin - in use, very customised I think.
 * Profanity - none included on the wiki, apart from quoting bad language from the wiki subject itself.

JBanton (Talk | Contribs) 17:19, February 22, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. Watch Dogs Wiki looks good -- congratulations on reaching 200 pages! I've added it to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:59, February 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Since then our wiki subject - Watch Dogs has been confirmed for a release of 27th May 2014. Does the recent spotlight rule out our wiki being given a spotlight onon or around our release date?

I Love Writing Wiki (approved)
I am the head admin of this wiki.

We have 500 off content pages, however a lot of them are sure to be stubs. This is mainly because we are a writing wiki, and these stubs are books our users are planning on writing, but haven't gotten to yet.

The main page of the wiki does have some pictures and it is very colorful and well-coded as well as having clear links to the most important content. It is not sysop-protected.

We have a strictly enforced category structure and every content page (to my beliefe) is in at least one category page. We are not in the middle of choosing new admins, or any other upheavals; we are a stable, friendly place.

We do use the Wikia welcome tool, and it is signed by all staff. We do have a custom message in the Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity. We do have a customized skin. We do use offensive language, but only in stories (creative freedom), but we do not allow inappropriate pictures.


 * Hi. We'll be happy to run a second spotlight for I Love Writing Wiki.  I've added it to the approved list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:59, March 5, 2014 (UTC)

Beyblade Wiki (approved)
Hello, I am EdBoy3, a sysop and bureaucrat at Beyblade Wiki. I would like for Beyblade Wiki to obtain a Spotlight. It fits all the criteria required and it would definitely be a great boost to us in terms of viewership and editing. We would also like to receive new users too. For our Spotlight, we would like this image to be used. I hope you can accept this and thank you in advance. EdBoy3 [ Talk to Me! ] 21:44, March 2, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. Beyblade Wiki is in good shape generally, but you do have some uncategorized pages.  Could you please sort those out and then let me know on my wall? I'll be happy to add the wiki to the approved spotlight list once those are sorted.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:02, March 5, 2014 (UTC)

Duck Commander Wiki
www.duckcommander.wikia.com. Duck Commander   is both the brand of a best-selling duck call   and the name of the company in West Monroe, Louisiana, United States, that makes it and other duck-hunting merchandise, as well as deer-hunting merchandise under the Buck Commander brand. Phil Robertson, a star football quarterback at Louisiana Tech University, founded the company rather than play professional football in the NFL.He began his business in a dilapidated shed, where he spent 25 years making duck calls from Louisiana cedar trees. Robertson's third son, Willie Robertson, is the chief executive officer and expanded the family business into a multi-million dollar enterprise.The Robertson family and business are the subjects of Duck Dynasty, a reality television     series on A&E. Before that, they were featured in the Duck Commander television show on the Outdoor Channel.

Meet the Robertsons, Louisiana's camouflage-clad millionaires, who live out the American dream while staying true to their rugged outdoorsman lifestyle and Southern roots. They invite you into their kitchen and duck blinds, giving you an up-close and personal, behind-the-scenes look at the family in the exploding A&E TV show “Duck Dynasty.” This Louisiana bayou family operates Duck Commander, a booming family business that has made them millions. They employ half their neighborhood (most of which are family), and at the end of the day you can find the whole family around the matriarch’s, Miss Kay's, dinner table. This family has a special brand of Southern know-how and a down-home sense of humor. Website created by Blake Alma.

 * Hi. I'm sorry, but in order to be spotlighted by request, wikias need to meet our spotlight best practices, including at least 200 non-stub-length content pages.  Your wikia looks really nice but you will need to expand the content a bit before it can be spotlighted. Please feel free to ask again when you can meet all of the spotlight criteria!  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:05, March 5, 2014 (UTC)

Nanana's Buried Treasure Wiki
Okay, not like Aikatsu Wiki's request of spotlight, I absolutely have no idea why I thought to promote this wiki, but Nanana is likely anticipated for this Spring as noitaminA's anime. I know this will be hard since I'm still constructing this "half-abandoned" wiki, but I'll do my best to take one of the spotlights for next month!

Oh, if the wiki qualify, between "Treasure Hunt Royale, the animation!!" and "No Adventure, No Life!!", which one would fit? LyokonoKawaiiPurinsesu (talk) 12:35, March 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. I can see that you have been working hard on Nanana's Buried Treasure Wiki, however, unfortunately it does not yet meet our criteria for requesting a spotlight.  Most notably wikias need to have at least 200 non-stub (longer than 300 bytes) content pages before they can request a spotlight.   Please feel free to ask again in the future when the wikia has grown. One thing you can do right now though is to use Special:Promote for your wikia.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:31, March 12, 2014 (UTC)

Hyperdimension Neptunia Wiki (approved)
Hello! I am the founder of the Hyperdimension Neptunia Wiki and I'm here to request another spotlight. I've gone through the process before and I am sure that my wiki follows the best practices. We have over 730 pages and they are all categorized and all stubs and disambiguations are correctly labeled with the appropriate templates. ~Purple Heart~ (talk) 01:58, March 16, 2014 (UTC)

Disney Channel Wikia (approved)
Hello ! I am requesting  disneychannel.wikia.com to be a spotlighted wiki. We are the leading wiki for all things Disney channel. Disney Channel is a channel that shows kids/young teen TV shows.We are currently trying to go international and expanding to foreign languages.We did just recently get help from the community development team and are hopping for an admin mentor visit. I hope you consider! ~AO or Chad012 (talk)


 * Hi. Disney Channel Wiki is in generally great shape -- the new skin is nice!  However it would need a couple of tweaks in order to be spotlighted.  The first would be to clean up a few uncategorized pages.  The other would be to lower the protection on the main page.  Right now it is set to protect against edits by all non-admins.  Ideally it should only protect against edits from anonymous users and new accounts.  Having it fully move-protected is fine.  The page has been protected for more than 5 years at this point, so it is hard to say if that level of protection is really needed against vandalism or not, but should it become a problem you can always re-protect it.  Please let me know on my wall when you have taken care of those two things and I will be happy to add this wikia to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:08, March 19, 2014 (UTC)

Prime Numbers Wiki
Hello Wikia, PNW is about to have its second spotlight. We have just fulfilled the requirements, and I am still considered active because I have did an action in the past 30 days, and also I have categorized some uncategorized pages. I hope everything is well now, and we have 309 pages, 1/5 of them are stubs.

Just some questions, what should be the gap between one spotlight and another? Is there none?

Also, please use the text in our spotlight "Spring is better with primes". It's up to you for the spotlight picture.

I'm requesting a spotlight, we haven't done one in like a year or so, and on 1 April 2014 it will be our 3 year anniversary/birthday.

This is a Star Wars wiki on clone troopers, the foot soldiers of the Grand Army of the Republic. We have met all of the requirements regarding stubs, pages, protection, admins, etc. We've even installed a user-friendly "battalion" where users can join, get ranks, earn badges, and join a community. We have regulations set for our users, and its like the sets of rules (although, in many cases its more like a guide). We're hoping we can qualify for a spotlight!

Hello. I’m the only admin of the Skip Beat! wiki. I recently adopted it at the end of December, last year. The wiki could really use a spotlight, it could really use more editors.

 * Hi. Peabody & Sherman Wiki looks like a lot of fun (and very pink!), however in order to be spotlighted, a wikia needs to meet our best practices, including at least 200 non-stub content pages.

OFFICIAL Reign Wiki
Hello I am T.A.D and I would like Reign CW Wiki to be in a spotlight. We have 200 pages that have alot of good information that users use. Thank You. TheAuthenticDiaries (talk) 20:11, March 31, 2014 (UTC)TheAuthenticDiariesTheAuthenticDiaries (talk) 20:11, March 31, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello. Reign CW Wiki looks good - I can see you have put a lot of effort into building it.  Unfortunately, in order to have a spotlight it would need 200 non-stub content pages.  Right now you have 47 of your pages in a "help needed" category which is the same thing as marking it as a stub.  You also have about 10 pages that are very short (less than 300 bytes) and thus would be considered stubs. Please work on strengthening your content a bit more and then ask again! -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:01, April 2, 2014 (UTC)

Magical Girl (Mahou Shoujo) Wiki (approved)


I'm the founder of this wiki: http://magical-girl-mahou-shoujo.wikia.com

Actually I have 523 pages, customized logo, background, pointer, etc... 5420 pictures and  3670 videos. I'm working every day increasing it, but unfortunately i'm almost alone and i don't know what can be the reason, it's because i want the spotlight.

If it is possible use this image please and put something like "Welcome to the Magical Girl Paradise! or "Discover the Magical Girl Paradise!":



Thank You!

We would like for you to use the photo to the right, and for it to say "Season 6 ended, whats next for the Clone Wars?" or something like that. There are 0 uncategorized pages, The main page is well laid out, we have less then a third of articles are stubs. I think those are all the requirements.

Shokugeki-no SOMA Wiki
Hello Merrystar!

I am User:Torquil, an Admin and Bureaucrat over at the Shokugeki-no SOMA Wiki, and I would like to request for our spotlight.

The set conditions have been met:


 * Yes, the community has 3 active admin
 * 1) Yes the Wiki has 200+ Non-Stub pages
 * Yes, our Main Page meets all requirements
 * Yes, we have a clear and organized category structure. Special:UncategorizedPages is empty
 * 1) I believe the community is a stable and friendly place
 * Yes, we are making use of the Wikia welcome tool. We do not use the Talk Page so I believe it does not need to be signed (We use the Message wall, which shows who posts the message)
 * Yes, the Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity is customized
 * Yes, the wiki has a customized skin
 * 1) The wikia does not use offensive language or include inappropriate images

Thanks for your time!

User:Torquil 16:57, April 6, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. Shokugeki-no SOMA Wiki looks good for the most part and I appreciate you taking the time to check over the criteria.  However, while you have over 200 non-stub-length pages (longer than 300bytes), you have 70 articles marked as stubs; both count towards your stubs.  You would need to decrease that to roughly 55 pages (once you go over 250 pages, the criteria changes to no more than 1/5th of the content).  Please let me know on my wall when you have had a chance to clean some of those up and I will check again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:51, April 16, 2014 (UTC)

 * Hi. The Amazing Spider-Man Wiki looks great -- you have a really nice skin!  That said, you also have a few too many articles marked as stubs.  Could you check the category and strengthen and untag about 10 of them, so you have 200 non-stub content pages?  Let me know on my wall when you have done that and I can check again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:56, April 16, 2014 (UTC)

Dark Tower Wiki (approved)
Hello, I'm an admin for the Dark Tower Wiki, which is focused on an eight-book series written by Stephen King, and I'd like the wiki to be considered for a spotlight. http://darktower.wikia.com/wiki/Can_Calyx

I believe we meet the criteria for a spotlight:
 * 1. The requester should be either an active admin (Yes)
 * 2. The wikia should have at least 200 content pages, not counting stubs. (We have 844)
 * 3. The main page should have at least one picture, and clear links to the most important content. It should not be sysop-protected from editing unless there is a strong history of vandalism; protecting against anonymous editors and new accounts is ok. (We have many pictures, organized links, and anyone can edit)
 * 4. There should be a clear category structure to help readers navigate around the site. Every content page should be in a category (Special:UncategorizedPages should be empty). (It hasn't been updated yet, but if you click each page you can see that they all have categories.  We also have many organized categories)  'http://darktower.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Categories 'http://darktower.wikia.com/wiki/Special:UncategorizedPage
 * 5. The community should not be in the middle of choosing new admins, or any other upheavals; it should be a stable, friendly place. (We have three stable admins)
 * 6. The wikia should be using the Wikia welcome tool, signed by admins -- (MediaWiki:Welcome-user should say @latest, @sysop or the name of an admin.) (We use the welcome tool)
 * 7. The message in the Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity should be customized. (MediaWiki:Community-corner)  (We have a customized message from an admin) 
 * 8. The wikia should have a customized skin. (We have a great customized skin)
 * 9. The wikia should not use offensive language or include inappropriate images. (No offensive language is tolerated, and we have "Peacekeepers" to ensure that this language is not used)

Thank you for your time and consideration!

Wiki 24 (approved)
Wiki 24

There's a new series of 24 being released in 2 weeks, and a while back User:Brian_Linder from Wikia left a couple of messages on the wiki about highlighting the wiki. However we never heard anything back from him, so I was wondering if anything was in the works to spotlight the wiki about this new TV show? I think the wiki meets all the criteria for a user-request spotlight if not? Thank you-- Category:Acer4666 21:49, April 22, 2014 (UTC)

Hello, we welcome you to Supreme Dragon Ball Wiki, a Dragon Ball Z database where you can write Dragon Ball Z Fan-Fictions, Role-Play and have fun! It's also the home of the famous Lookout Crew warriors!

This wiki is for making Dragon Ball Z/GT Fan-Fictions and Role-Play in its style. We are glad to see you make pages and help support the wiki, and encourage you too. http://lookout.wikia.com/wiki/Supreme_Dragon_Ball_Wiki


 * Hi. Supreme Dragon Ball Wiki looks good but it would need two small tweaks to meet the spotlight criteria.  First there are some uncategorized pages that need to be cleaned up.  Second the edit protection on the main page needs to be dropped so it is only protected against IPs and new accounts.  Let me know on my wall when you have done those two things and I will be happy to look again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:21, April 23, 2014 (UTC)

Adventure Time Answers (approved)
Adventure Time Answers is currently a fairly stable Answers wiki with newly revamped designs, scripts, and main page.

GTA Myths Wiki (approved)
Hello, I'm Sasquatch101 and am requesting a spotlight for the GTA Myths Wiki. We had a spotlight from Wikia about six months ago and it really helped with boosting the wiki's activity as well as our WAM ranking. We currently have 284 articles, over 1,400 images, 66 active users,  and a very active community forum. We were wrote up in the New Yorker Magazine a few months ago on the subject of Myths in GTA. With the spotlight we could expand the wiki even more and get other editors in the Wikia community interested in GTA Myths. Thank You. Sasquatch101 (talk) 18:42, May 5, 2014 (UTC)

Wigglepedia (approved)
I think Wigglepedia (w:c:wiggles) should be in the spotlight because it has very strong strecture and no uncategorized pages. There are only a few stub pages and the main page is locked because of history of vandalism. We are a very friendly Wikia with responsible and friendly admins. If there are a few flaws with the Wikia I need to fix for the spotlight, let me know and I will fix them ASAP. But I'm hoping this Wikia will be able to make it in the spotlight. Thanks! :)

Bananaaaaa! Potato-naaaaah! (talk) 06:18, May 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. Wigglepedia is in generally good shape but it will need a stronger main page to meet the spotlight criteria.  Right now there is just the slider and the poll; the main page should include information about the Wiggles and the wikia as well as links to important content areas (eg. to People, Places, Episodes, Songs, etc.).  Let me know on my wall when you have had a chance to add some content there and I will check again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:29, May 29, 2014 (UTC)

Hey, this August the Classic Cars Wiki is going to be three years old. Thanks to a number of great contributors the wiki has gone from strength to strength, even if things has started to quieten down a little. We have some protection on certain pages to help curb vandals (due to the wiki's large size we do occasionally get a vandal or two).

The image I would like to be used for the spotlight is this. I look forward to hearing from you in regards of whether or not we have got a spotlight or not.

I suggest the image for the spotlight is this image while the good description for it is, "Darkness is coming, good night".

Hopefully the spotlight can be approved on the right time. Thank you. --ConTraZ VII 10:33, May 23, 2014 (UTC)

Hi I'm a Bureaucrat and Administrator on Hypothetical Hurricanes Wiki and we have 1258 pages on the wiki and I would like to request a spotlight.

HurricaneTeen6900(talk) 15:47, May 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. Hypothetical Hurricanes Wiki looks good but would need a little bit of work in order to qualify for the spotlight.  You would need to customize the Community Corner. Additionally, over 900 of your content pages are uncategorized.  So you will need to create a clear category system and sort them all out (putting them all into the same default category is not ok).  Please let me know on my wall when you have done this and I'll be happy to check again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:39, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Biblicalapedia (approved)
Last year, about this time I applied for a spotlight, in which temporarily gained some members of the community only for them to quickly leave. I would like to apply my wiki again for a spotlight, to see if this time a different approach can be made. I feel that since we haven't spotlighted for a while, that we can try to run again a second term for a spotlight. The stub articles, I measured was not a fifth of the wiki's content, but it was near it (19.75, if a spotlight runs than hopefully it will lead to some expansions, its hard being a lone admin), and the only article without a category is the homepage, which shouldn't need one, because it needs to be easy to find and appealing. The homepage, was spruced up enough last time to qualify, and I am also making some improvements overtime to it, on my test wiki and on the actual wiki. So more or less, would like to run a second spotlight, perhaps have the same image and phrase and all, unless the Community Development disagrees (whatever they choose, it doesn't matter much to me what they do). Thanks in advance Wendy (and the Community Development team of course)

The one small issue I see is that the main page is sysop-level protected, and has been since the wikia was created. We would ask you to drop the edit protection to only prevent new and unregistered users from editing.

 * The requester should be either an active admin, or link to a discussion with an active admin of the wikia who agrees to the spotlight. I'm the founder


 * The wikia should have at least 200 content pages, not counting stubs. Stub, or very short articles (less than about 300 bytes; listed at Special:Shortpages) and articles marked with a stub template should make up no more than a fifth of all pages. It has exactly 200 pages (as of 5/30/14 7:26 PM E/T), and 0 stubs, but a few short articles.


 * The main page should have at least one picture, and clear links to the most important content. It should not be sysop-protected from editing unless there is a strong history of vandalism; protecting against anonymous editors and new accounts is ok. The protection level is at max, but can be lowered if need be.


 * There should be a clear category structure to help readers navigate around the site. Every content page should be in a category (Special:UncategorizedPages should be empty). Every page (and photo) has a category.


 * The community should not be in the middle of choosing new admins, or any other upheavals; it should be a stable, friendly place. I'm the only active contributor.


 * The wikia should be using the Wikia welcome tool, signed by admins -- (MediaWiki:Welcome-user should say @latest, @sysop or the name of an admin). Here it is.


 * '''The message in the Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity should be customized. (MediaWiki:Community-corner). Done that.


 * The wikia should have a customized skin. Since it's not directed toward one individual artist or album, I left the background brown.


 * The wikia should not use offensive language or include inappropriate images. Both of what is mentioned is banned from Albumpedia, and I haven't found any.

For the image:

Caption: Read about new album releases, such as Ghost Stories from Coldplay.

If this could be up as soon as possible, that would be great. Thanks :D Dragonknight86 (talk) 23:47, May 30, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. Albumpedia looks great in general. For a spotlight we would request that you lower the mainpage protection to only prevent edits from anonymous users and new accounts.  Please let me know on my wall when you have done that and I will be happy to add the wikia to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:00, June 4, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks -- I've added it to the approved spotlight list. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:34, June 5, 2014 (UTC)

Noblesse Wiki (approved)
Hi! I am Wings, an admin from Noblesse Wiki and I'd like to request for a spotlight. The recent season of Noblesse Manhwa is undergoing a climax (regarding the Noblesse's life and death!) and it'd be great if our wiki can get a spotlight before the season ends. Thank you

Encyclopedia SpongeBobia (approved)
Hello, I am AMK152, bureaucrat at Encyclopedia SpongeBobia and I am requesting a spotlight. Our wiki has been progressing very nicely over the past 2 years, and several administrators and I have been working together to prepare the wiki so that we meet all the "best practices" requirements. The community approves of a spotlight request, and I mention how we meet each requirement on the discussion page. See here. Also, what are the exact dimensions of the spotlight graphic? Thanks! —  AMK152  ( Wall •  Contrib ) 12:24, June 3, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello. Encyclopedia SpongeBobia looks good and I've added it to the approved spotlight list.  You can provide any size image (of good quality) for the spotlight, however these will be submitted tomorrow, so please post it here by then.  Otherwise Wikia staff will choose an image and a caption. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:02, June 18, 2014 (UTC)


 * I would like to create a different image, but would need more time. Could this image: be used for now with white space to be added where needed? Can the spotlight image be changed later on? —  AMK152  ( Wall  •  Contrib ) 03:05, June 18, 2014 (UTC)


 * The image can't be changed after it is submitted. Generally a logo isn't a great choice because the wikia's name is going to be on the bar right below the image.  So a bold graphic of some sort is a better choice.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:06, June 18, 2014 (UTC)

America's Got Talent Wiki (approved)
Hi, America's Got Talent Wiki (agt.wikia.com ) could use a spotlight, with the show's newest season having premiered recently.

Criminal Case Wiki (approved)
http://criminal-case-grimsborough.wikia.com/wiki/Criminal_Case_Wiki

Hello, I'm Icy34567, and I would like to put the wiki that I'm an admin in at the spotlight. We have around 482 pages and we keep creating more. Our wiki is about Criminal Case, the Facebook game that won Facebook Game of the Year 2013. Our main page looks good with designs and we have many pictures there. We also have many categories there. We use the welcome tool and we aren't looking for new admins (we have enough already). Hope our wiki can be on the spotlight. :) Thanks.

Icy34567 (talk) 02:39, June 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. Criminal Case Wiki looks great but it appears you are no longer an admin there. If the other admins agree I will be happy to add the wikia to the approved spotlight list. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:09, June 18, 2014 (UTC)

Rakshasa Street Wiki
Hello i'd to request spotlight for the Rakshasa Street Wiki if it meets the best practices. 23:17, June 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi Besty. I'm sorry, but in order to be spotlighted by request the wikia needs to have at least 200 non-stub content pages.  Rakshasa is very close to 200 pages, although I did not check if any are stubs.  Go ahead and add some content and then ask again when you can meet all the best practices.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:12, June 18, 2014 (UTC)

Futurama Wiki
Hello! I plan to request Futurama Wiki for adoption! Since I was promoted to admin, I have worked massively on adding new pages and removing unneeded pages. The wiki has 2,232 articles out of which 333 pages are stubs, below the 20% stub limit needed. This wiki also has a main page gallery but unfortunately has only three admins. I believe a spotlight would improve wiki traffic and spread the word of this amazing show!

PS, I recommend you use this photo: http://futurama.wikia.com/wiki/File:Assie_Come_Home_(130).jpg CalzoneManiac (talk) 00:23, June 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * You mean spotlight, not adoption right :)? Futurama Wiki looks good overall, but the main page does not really have links to the important content.  Perhaps you could add some portal-style links to major categories such as characters, episodes, etc.??  Let me know when you've done that and I'll be happy to check again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk )


 * What do you mean when you say that it needs to be done like this. Futurama Wiki has one of these features! CalzoneManiac (talk) 21:09, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

Magical Girl - Mahou Shoujo Wiki
Can I request a third spotlight? http://magical-girl-mahou-shoujo.wikia.com/
 * Hi. I'm sorry but we only offer up to two requested spotlights per year, so I can't approve a third one right now.  But feel free to ask again next year!  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:21, June 18, 2014 (UTC)

LANAPEDIA (approved)
May I suggest lanadelrey.wikia.com



I am not and admin on the wiki but i have asked permission here:http://lanadelrey.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:4464#26

I would like lanapedia to be a spotlight because of Ultraviolence (http://lanadelrey.wikia.com/wiki/Ultraviolence_(album)) is being released which is lana del rey's second major record label studio album. May you move this spotlight earlier as possible by moving other spotlight dates later if that's okay? :)

BTW Do not use he image above as the spotlight image. I can send you an image i would like to use if you do approve.

Thankyou. :)

--Azending (talk) 11:04, June 14, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello. Lanapedia looks great but it needs a couple of tweaks for the spotlight.  The main page protection should be dropped to only protect against edits by anonymous users and new accounts (who do most of the vandalizing anyhow).  And there are a small handful of uncategorized pages that need sorting out.  Let me know on my wall when those things are taken care of and I"ll be happy to add the wikia to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:29, June 18, 2014 (UTC)

R5 Rocks! Wiki
Hey there! I'm Dechel-Auslly-Flyna and I am currently an administrator and bureaucrat on the R5 Rocks! Wiki. At the moment, the wiki isn't very active and I would love to request a spotlight for it. I went and checked everything from the list of things that it should contain, and it contains every one except the 200 pages, but since I'm the only user who's editing, I don't have time to make a lot of pages. We currently have 122 pages. Please get back to me when you get the chance

Dechel-Auslly-Flyna 07:04, June 19, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi Dechel-Auslly-Flyna. I'm sorry but in order to request a spotlight through this page the wikia does need to meet all the requirements, including the 200 non-stub content pages.  You've done a great job if you've made 118 pages all on your own, so I'm sure you will get there.  Feel free to ask again when you do!  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:22, June 25, 2014 (UTC)

This is Superdadsuper, and I am re-applying for a spotlight in which was cancelled in order to allow me to have this in July instead of June, in which I am to busy. It seems everything is in order as in qualifications except for again Biblicalapedia, the mainpage is uncategorized, but this is unintentional. Thanks

Thanks Superdadsuper Biblicalapedia Administrator User Talk:Superdadsuper 14:30, June 23, 2014 (UTC)

Doctor Who Answers (approved)
Hello there! I was wondering if DWA can get another spotlight for the time surrounding the 23rd August. Very specifically the weeks surrounding the 23rd August. Could do the slot after that, but not before the late August slot. Even though there aren't many wikis asking for spotlights now. Don't want to be early. Not again.

Anyway, DWA is still as good as last time with a few minor improvements. Should fit all the criteria for a spotlight. Can we please use the image on the right? And can the caption please read "New series. New face. Same Time Lord."? And can you make sure our wiki's name is written as "Doctor Who Answers" and not "Dr. Who Answers". Sorry, I know I'm being picky; I just want everything to work smoothly.

So can we please schedule a spotlight for the late August slot; the weeks surrounding the 23rd August? Thank you so much! 12:50, July 2, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello. If I approve your request now it should go up in early August, so that is not a good choice.  Remind me on my wall to add it to the approved spotlight list sometime shortly after August 1st; that should have it go up in mid August, or beginning of September at the latest.  Thanks! -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:42, July 16, 2014 (UTC)


 * You're all set! -- <font color="Blue">Wendy (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:31, August 2, 2014 (UTC)

Language Brigade Wiki (approved)
Other notable remarks (sorry for long post):
 * You can put the name of our project ("Wikia Language Brigade") rather than our wiki ("Language Brigade Wiki") on the spotlight if you'd like -- the wiki was created just to support and organize the project.
 * If you need images or a caption: I'd always be glad to help on skype or elsewhere.
 * As for the content of the wiki, we're a translation project for all users of Wikia, including non-English ones. This is important since not all of our content is English, and the content of our pages will be displayed depending on user preferences' language.

If there are any questions (our wiki is rather special), feel free to ask!

Dishonored Wiki (approved)
Hello! This is molotov.cockroach, and I'm looking to see if we can get the Dishonored wiki spotlit. I'm not certain if the wiki was spotlit before my time as an admin, but during my tenure I believe this is the first time. We have no specific date requests.


 * The requester should be either an active admin, or link to a discussion with an active admin of the wikia who agrees to the spotlight. I am the wiki's current active admin.
 * The wikia should have at least 200 content pages, not counting stubs. Stub, or very short articles (less than about 300 bytes; listed at Special:Shortpages) and articles marked with a stub template should make up no more than a fifth of all pages. We have 867 pages, and roughly 20 are less than 300 bytes.
 * The main page should have at least one picture, and clear links to the most important content. It should not be sysop-protected from editing unless there is a strong history of vandalism; protecting against anonymous editors and new accounts is ok. The front page has several pictures in gallery form, and both on-page and menu bar links to important pages. The page is guarded against editing by anonymous and new accounts.
 * There should be a clear category structure to help readers navigate around the site. Every content page should be in a category (Special:UncategorizedPages should be empty). Our category setup was revamped several months ago to be more streamlined, and all pages are categorized.
 * The community should not be in the middle of choosing new admins, or any other upheavals; it should be a stable, friendly place. The community is stable.
 * The wikia should be using the Wikia welcome tool, signed by admins -- (MediaWiki:Welcome-user should say @latest, @sysop or the name of an admin.) We use the welcome tool, signed through @latest
 * The message in the Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity should be customized. (MediaWiki:Community-corner) Yes, it is customized
 * The wikia should have a customized skin. Just got a new one, even
 * The wikia should not use offensive language or include inappropriate images. Nope, we don't have either

 * Hello. You've done a great job building the wikia in a fairly short amount of time! Unfortunately most of your pages are shorter than 300 bytes, or stub-length. In order to be spotlighted only 1/5th of the pages, or about 150 given your current page count, can be that short.

Bandipedia
The wiki I'm a bereaucrat on is struggling for views despite the fact it's really big and is virtually complete. I feel that spotlight would boost discussion and allow for articles that maybe are missing trivia or an image or two to be fixed with more editors with more edits as a result. I feel the wiki meets all the spec - some 'stubs' may not be stubs (if there is 200) as some content literally appears once as a cameo, dominant in Crash. This would be massive for Bandipedia.

Encyclopedia Gamia
I would like to nominate Encyclopedia Gamia to be in the spotlight. It is currently the biggest database for all things related to video games, and I would love to have more editors help out on a consistent basis. There was a user, several years ago, who mass imported thousands of pages from Wikipedia, but unfortunately his plan didn't go accordingly and a massive amount of pages are now completely destroyed. We could use a huge boost in community!  Z mario  20:14, July 25, 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I am EdBoy3, the head admin of Beyblade Wiki. I want to request a spotlight for Beyblade Wiki. We meet all of the qualifications and criteria listed here.

And now, a new series Beyblade Legends has just been released and we would like to promote that if that is possible which we would be very grateful for. We would like the image for the Spotlight to be this one with the caption about the new Beyblade Legends series (which to not cause confusion, is a toy series you can read more about here).
