Other information: I don't know what's the purpose of that wiki since it has no content, but I want to adopt the wiki to make one about the Christian rock band Petra.


 * Haya! As stated by Ransom Time (http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:613082), the wiki is eligible. It has only 1 page, no community, the fFounder has been inactive nearly a year. One of the basic criteria to a successful adoption is the adoptee must be *currently* editing the wiki for at least a week. You can do this during the 7 to 10 days or so it will take this Request to work its way to the top of the queue, as adoptions are addressed in the order received. Bear in mind this is the holiday season and Staff has time off, so add maybe a week to the processing time.


 * So roll up your sleeves and pitch in and start editing everyday or so while awaiting a determination. The wiki is a clean slate.


 * Personal thought: Since the wiki name is also the name of the Founder, the purpose for making it may have been personal to them. Were they to ever return to it, there could be the potential for a hissy fit and conflict. *I* would request their bureaucrat rights be stripped. *Understand*, this is NOT normally done even when a wiki is adopted. Staff generally does not remove Rights from Bureaucrats unless for some form of abuse of their powers. So requesting it in this case will be more "miss" than "hit", but my philosophy is: "the answer will always be 'no' unless you ask". Worse can happen is Staff tells you what I just did.

 * I thought about that (starting to edit the Wiki), but since it was created for another purpose, I didn't know if there was a guideline that prohibited me from stepping in and altering whatever it was made for. I didn't want to step on someone else's toes. Thanks for the advice. Thief12 (talk) 14:05, December 26, 2013 (UTC)
