Community Central:Adoption requests

Watership Down
Can I put the Watership Down wiki up for adoption, it just won't work. -Rakkety Tam
 * This is a place to ask to adopt wikis, not to put them up for adoption. Is there something we can help you with specifically that isn't working?  -- Wendy  (talk ) 00:50, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Worms Wikia (Declined)
I would like to adopt worms.wikia.com.


 * You're off to a good start there. Please keep creating new pages, and ask the other active users if they think you will be a good admin.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 00:20, 25 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Are you still interested in adopting this wiki? You haven't made any edits recently.  — Catherine (talk) 10:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I am closing this request; feel free to re-apply when you have put more work in to the community. — Catherine (talk) 02:25, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

CSI Wiki (Accepted)
I'm currently working on CSI Wiki with the help of another user. It would help to to have admin rights. G B 05:00, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Are there already active admins?--Jakezing2 13:05, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
 * No. G B 17:33, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi GB. You and User:Sec 1971 are doing a really nice job putting the CSI wiki back together.  It's great to see that you've customized the welcome template and are adding new content.  However, you have only been on the wiki about 9 days so far and have about 10 new articles.  Please get back to us when it has been 2 weeks and you have written 20 new articles per the guidelines at the top of this page.  Looking at what you have done so far, I think you should have no trouble meeting these two criteria by next week :).  -- Wendy  (talk ) 20:22, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

I'm on it. Thanks Merrystar. G B 39 20:25, 28 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Good work, GroceryBag -- I've made you and Sec_1971 co-admins. Please keep creating pages and welcoming new users, and be sure to talk about the wiki in other CSI forums on the web!   — Catherine (talk) 02:25, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Tom and Jerry Wiki (Accepted)
I would like to adopt the Tom and Jerry Wiki. No admins have worked there since a while ago. And I can honestly say I know a lot about Tom and Jerry. So may I adopt this Wiki?

--Ivanovsson 23:06, 28 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your interest, Ivanovsson. You've done some very nice editing there today, with a handful of new pages.  Please continue to work on expanding the wiki.  You can also create a user page for yourself, and customize the welcome template and start saying hello to other users.  When you've edited for about two weeks, we'll be happy to look at giving you admin rights.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 00:05, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Excellent work so far! — Catherine (talk) 10:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

It has been quite a while since I started working on this wiki and I do have the requirements now. Do you think it is time for me to get admin rights?

--Ivanovsson 22:13, 4 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the excellent work in creating new pages, Ivanovsson! I've given you the tools, please use them well.  — Catherine (talk) 02:25, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Mork and Mindy wiki (Accepted)
I would like to adopt the Mork and Mindy wiki. I am a large fan of the show, the wiki is currently inactive, and the only admin/Bureaucrat there, who is the founder, has made absolutely no edits there ever. It is also very young (having only 6 articles). Thus far, I have been renovating the main page, creating templates, and creating a proper category structure... as well as creating a few articles. I have much experience as an administrator on wikia as I currently am one on Monk Wiki and Staragte Wiki, and I have been for some time. That being said, I have a large amount of knowledge on the workings of a wiki. Thanks!&mdash;Anubis 10545 22:24, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi. You are doing a great job organizing and cleaning up the Mork and Mindy wiki, and you clearly know what you are doing.  However we still need you to meet the requirements for adoption, which include editing for 2 weeks and making at least 20 new articles.  I'm sure you can manage that -- get back to us when you have done so.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 01:36, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the steady improvements, Anubis. Please invite other Mork and Mindy fans to come join you and I'm certain that this wiki will continue to grow!  — Catherine (talk) 02:25, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Full Metal Alchemist Wiki (Accepted)
I know that you need to be working on a wiki for two weeks to be eligible for you to adopt it, but it seems as though I need to move a lot of pages. I am atempting to change the episode pages from "Episode 1" to their title. I still have to do 41 more. There is an anti-spam that is not allowing me to do this quickly. I have added some of 70+ pages to this wiki within the past 48 hours. You can see my contributions by click the following link. I am requesting bureaucrat or sysop on this wiki so I can finish my changes and also finish what I am planning on adding. For example changing the Skin adding a Logo ect. Again I know I have not been working on the wiki the full 2 weeks but it would be a big help to me and the wiki. Thanks in advance. ~KingLinkTiger~ KingLinkTiger 17:28, 30 November 2008 (UTC)


 * The antispam happens because you're a new user there on that Wikia. Wait another day or two, and then you should be autoconfirmed, which means you won't get that message. No comment otherwise. --Sky (talk) 23:36, 1 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the information. I never knew that. ~KingLinkTiger~ KingLinkTiger 01:48, 2 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi KingLinkTiger. I'm glad you are excited about sprucing up the Full Metal Alchemist wiki, and you certainly have done a lot of hard work there.  However you do need to edit for 2 weeks as we say on this page.  You also need to have a welcome template and welcome other contributors to the wiki, which I don't see you doing in your recent changes.  Also, there appears to be some activity on the site, it would be good to create a page stating that you are working to adopt the wiki and invite comment from any other users.  I can help you put up a sitenotice.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 01:50, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Sly Cooper (On hold)
I want to help this wiki since the administrator has not edited since June, and the wiki is falling behind with only 53 articles now, and since it's administrator left. I have a lot of knowledge of the Sly Cooper franchise and I'm willing to expand it. There should be a ton of articles on there, and since I've already been on the Jak and Daxter Wiki and have created over 50 articles in 2 days I think I can handle this one. The wiki is sly.wikia.com —This unsigned comment is by Kcdude500 (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with !


 * You're off to a nice start! Please keep up the good work and we'll check back on you in about ten days.  — Catherine (talk) 10:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

flash.wikia.com (On hold)
I wish to adopt the wiki as my own as I can see no one has edited it since 2007. Now that's a long time. Catch my drift? I wish for it to be useful for people. When I was new to Flash, I spent hour on Google. Now people can come to a one stop place to learn flash.


 * I'm glad to hear about your interest! I've always felt that the Flash wiki could be a thriving and helpful project, with all of the new Flash applications and games being developed every day.  Please keep up the good work -- you've already created half a dozen new pages so you're well on your way to the 20 pages required in the adoption guidelines at the top of the page.  Since you just started there today, we will check back with you in about two weeks to make sure you are still interested in the project.  Please let us know if there is anything you need help with in the meantime! — Catherine (talk) 03:36, 5 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Are you still interested in this project? You haven't been editing lately.  — Catherine (talk) 02:25, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

education wikia (Accepted)
I'm administrator in the German education wikia "bildung" and would like to have the same role in the education wikia. --fasten 00:14, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi Fasten,


 * Could you provide us the link to your contributions to the site your requesting, per Education Wikia has several education wiki's; providing the link will probably speed up the process when the Wikia staff view this section. Dark <font color="Black"> Obsidian   12:02, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello, I am a current administrator for the Education Wiki. Had I known Fasten was interested, I would have requested his promotion myself. I still support upgrading his status, as Fasten is already responsible over 60% of current edits. --Kirk 23:40, 10 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the request, Fasten, and the information, Kirk -- I've given you both admin and bureaucrat rights, since the previous bureaucrat has been inactive since March. Thank you for your hard work on this wiki; it's a very important topic!  — Catherine (talk) 02:47, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

GunZ: The Duel
<removed by applicant, will return in a few days>

Indy Racing League wiki (Declined)
The Indy Racing League wiki has not been updated since May 2008. I would like to "adopt this wiki as I am very knowledgeable on this subject and have communities willing to help me out with the making of this wiki. Thanks for you time and consideration Wikia staff. You can find the wiki at http://indyracingleague.wikia.com/wiki/Indy_Racing_League_Wiki.

Thank you. --Roadblocker 22:50, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi Roadblocker,


 * Please read through the requirements at the top of the page, unfortunately you don't meet the requirements as you need to be active over 2 weeks and have made more than 20 articles, once you've managed to gain the recommended requirements please come back here and the wikia staff will review your request. <font color="Black">Dark <font color="Black"> Obsidian   22:58, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your explanation. I will be active on the wiki and come back here in 2 weeks. --Roadblocker 23:01, 7 December 2008 (UTC)


 * It looks like the original founder, User:Stattic6, has returned -- please talk to him/her about gaining admin rights if you are still interested! — Catherine (talk) 02:47, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

I want to create a movie wikia (Not an adoption request)
Dear, Wikia

I'm a person that loves to watch movie. Can you let me create one.
 * Go to the Requests wiki and make your request there. You may also find the Entertainment wiki interesting. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 17:59, 8 December 2008 (UTC)


 * We have Film wikis in several languages, including an English version at w:c:filmguide. Happy editing!  — Catherine (talk) 02:47, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

The Brickfilms Wiki (Accepted)
I have practically raised the Brickfilms Wiki. When I first came to it, three months ago or so, it had only one page on it. The previous admin had created one page, for himself, and had left the whole Wiki like that. So, with the help of the Wikia Community Help Email, I have steadily built up some new pages, and I'm ready to start fully customising it and advertising it. Once I have developed it fully, I will advertise it on Brickfilms.com, and it will hopefully get lots more users helping to add to the few pages that we have at the moment. I'd love to start fully customizing and adding to what could become a giant archive, and start my work on aiding the online Brickfilming community. So, because the previous admin has ditched the site, it is in dire need of full customization. I have tried to aid the wiki, but I need admin rights to fully customize it. Please, Wikia, please!!!!! —This unsigned comment is by Lortoniipa (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with !


 * Thanks for your long-term efforts there. I would like to see you build the number of pages quickly -- having many pages that are well-linked to each other is one of the keys to appearing strongly in search engines and bringing new people in to help you edit.  Please keep up the good work!  — Catherine (talk) 02:47, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Warhammer Online Wiki Español
SPANISH

Hola, llevo tiempo trabajando en el wiki Español sobre Warhammer Online.

http://es.warhammeronline.wikia.com/wiki/Portada

El wiki lleva más de un año sin ninguna contribución y sin administradores.

Debido a que gran parte de la información son guías sobre mazmorras, guaridas, etc., requiere jugar primero y hacer capturas de pantalla para incluirlas en el wiki. Es un gran trabajo y sin administradores me expongo a que venga alguien y lo borre todo y mi trabajo no haya servido para nada.

He contribuido haciendo la página principal, un logo, y bastante información, pero no puedo arriesgarme a perder todo por culpa del vandalismo.

También me gustaría diseñar la página principal con un diseño acorde a Warhammer Online, un diseño oscuro. Tengo grandes ideas pero aún no puedo llevarlas a cabo.

Gracias por vuestro esfuerzo y por hacer ésto posible.

ENGLISH

Hello, take time to work on the wiki Spanish on Warhammer Online.

http://es.warhammeronline.wikia.com/wiki/Portada

The wiki is more than a year without any input and without administrators.

Given that much of the information guides are dungeons, lairs, and so on. Requires first play and making screenshots for inclusion in the wiki. It's a great job and I'm exposed to administrators that someone come and erase everything and my job has not served at all.

I contributed to the home page, a logo, and enough information, but I can not risk losing everything because of vandalism.

I would also like to design the homepage with a design according to Warhammer Online, a dark design. I have great ideas but can not carry them out.

Thank you for your effort and for making this possible.

Risk Wikia (Accepted)
I would like to adopt the Risk Wiki, and from what I can gather, the founder has not been active since September. I am willing to help this wiki thrive and I've already contributed alot, and plan to contribute more.

When I started editing, there were 4 pages, and now there are 22, and I basically rewrote 3 of the 4 pages by the admin. The last documented visit from the admin was in October, and he seems more inrterested in advertising and sponsership than the actual wiki.

Please consider letting me adopt the wiki. Thank you. The wiki is http://risk.wikia.com. --Matt 20 1 20:53, 8 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks Matt -- you've demonstrated exactly the type of "jump in and start working" attitude that we like to see in potential admins.  You've done some nice things for a start and I look forward to seeing this wiki grow.  — Catherine (talk) 02:47, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you--Matt 20 1 04:48, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Overlord (On hold)
The 2nd game is coming up so I want the new players to know the plot and game mechanics

 * You haven't made any edits there yet, Venomclaw -- please feel free to create pages about the new game and update the main page. Once you've been editing there for two weeks then we'll be happy to talk about giving you admin rights.  — Catherine (talk) 02:47, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Why my created wiki can't edit (Not an adoption request)
Why my created wikia cannot be deleted.

Big Bang Theory Wikia (DENIED)
It was last updated sometime in January, the pages are a mess and it's so confusing to navigate. I think it's time that the wikia had a user that will look after and regularly update the page and I think I could do that. There are so many features that should be up there that aren't. It's being neglected and needs a major change to make visiting the site a more enjoyable experience for other fans who love the show and want information and interesting things to entertain them. --xcrazygirl08x


 * Hi. Big Bang Theory Wiki is definitely in need of some love and could potentially be a much more interesting place, and I'm glad you are interested in it.  However the only edit I can see that you made there was to blank the main page completely.  Please see the adoption criteria at the top of this page; there is a lot you can do to spruce up the wiki as a regular user.  Ask us again in a couple of weeks when you have met the criteria to adopt.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:35, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Hannah Montana Wikia (ON HOLD)
- My contributions page. - The wikia

I'm currently working on renovating the Hannah Montana wikia, working on characters and episodes. There are a lot of articles so I haven't created many new articles, I've mostly been working on the articles there. It would help to have administrative powers because, unfortanutely, there is a LOT of vandalism and it'd also be nice to delete unused pictures or pages.

The administrators haven't been on for months and most of the only recent edits have been vandalism or reverting vandalism. I will continue working on it (I took a break for a month for holidays and such but I'm going to try to work every day again). =] Hope I put everything that I had to.


 * Hi. You've done a nice job starting to clean up the Hannah Montana wiki, and it would be great to have somebody take care of that wiki.  However we do still need you to meet the criteria for adoption.  You've only worked on the wiki for a few days on either side of your holiday, so we'd like to see you work on it steadily for another week or so.  Also, there are a lot of editors, mostly one-shot, who do make useful contributions, and we'd like to see you welcoming them.  For articles/images that need deleting you can add the  tag so it will be easy to find them later.  And while this wiki does have content in place, there are still lots of articles that can be created.  Let us know if we can help and please get back to us when you meet the criteria for adopting.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:08, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Total Drama Island (Denied)
Please let Me adopt this wiki. i watch it everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!

i am the Guy in charge of the unknown pictures. so, please!

--Spongebobrocks09 00:43, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi -- I'm glad you like Total Drama Island. However the wiki admin, Vampyrum Spectrum08, last edited a few weeks ago.  You should talk to him about becoming an admin.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:38, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Guitar Wiki
I'd like to adopt the Guitar Wiki, please. I have already adopted ACDC Wiki and would like to try this one out. The admins rarely (if not never) show up. Thanks! ZT 01:16, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

I have been looking at theatre.wikia.com - if this section needs adopting, I would love to take it on and help it grow
I have a big interest in the theatre, and it seems like people are creating sections for things like "Category:International Real Estate" within this wiki, advertising "Argentina Real Estate".

I find this a real shame, as there is so much content that could be written about theatres and theatre performances!

I would very much like to take this project on if it is available, and I would do my best to clean up any mess like above (SPAM) and also add fresh, related and interesting content as often as possible. (I love the theatre, so it would be far from a chore!)

Looking forward to a response,

Mike

Ps. If someone is already taking care of this wiki, then please accept my appologies for being rude! - It was not my intention!
 * Sorry, but according to w:c:theatre:Special:Contributions/Mikekingpin, you never made any contributions yet. Spam can be cleaned up without administrative powers. If you need someone to block someone or to delete an article, you can call a Staffmember or Helper. Please return here when you have felt that you've made significant contributions to the wiki. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 15:51, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay, great! - So, is it okay to add related pieces already then? and point out spammers content when I see it?

Mike
 * Sure, the wiki needs more work and less spam. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 15:56, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Soul Eater Wiki (r c)
I'd like to adopt the Soul Eater Wiki myself. I've been administrating the Narutopedia for awhile, and as part of Wikia ACG look over a number of other wiki. However the only ones that take active attention are the Narutopedia and the Dragon Ball Wiki. Both of them have a good live community and only need a bit of watching and administration. So I've been looking for a wiki to adopt that I actually have some capability to work on.

Soul Eater is a currently running series, so creating a community is not as hard as with the series which have already been finished. And there have only been around 35 episodes so far, and the series is not as complex as other ones like Naruto. So it's not to hard to get the wiki to catch up with content. Wikipedia already has a fair bit of content, so I've started out with merging in what WP has and cleaning it up (the wiki has some content of it's own, as well as some badly copied pages which I'm fixing up).

Just to note for whoever's handling rights, could I also get a Bot flag on AnimeBot. I have a large number of templates inside of Wikia ACG that vastly simplify cleaning up and being compatible with content based from Wikipedia, as well a good Infobox system. So I'd like to put Soul Eater in the loop so the content can start to look better. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) (tricks) (current topic) Dec 13, 2008 @ 01:05 (UTC)

411
I'm adopting 411 because it was no more than a 'new' test page when I first came. The creator hasn't been on since August nor built anything. I've created many policy pages and request pages in it, but I need admin and bureaucrat rights there instantly to fix the messages and protected pages. - Æåm Fætsøn 11:06, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Gunz: The Duel
I am requesting to adopt the Gunz: The Duel wikia (which can be found here). Thank you for viewing my application. You can see my contributions here. Thanks, Aaronwhines 21:25, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * This Wikia is currently classified as inactive.
 * There has been no sustained editing by other users for the past month (possibly longer).
 * The last admin (who can be found here has made no edits for more than a month; there is much to do and thus, in my opinion, a month-long absence certainly can't be considered proper in this situation.
 * I have not founded, adopted, or been given admin access on another wiki in the last 60 days.
 * I have not been blocked on another Wikia project.
 * I have already made over 700 constructive edits on this wiki.
 * I have created a large number of new pages, as well as many redirect pages for easier browsing.
 * I have added many new images to the wiki to show aspects of the subject matter.
 * I have been able to bring in several new editors through other communities and have been working with them to improve the quality of this wiki.
 * I began working on this wiki on 3 December 2008, and thus my two-week minimum will be achieved in three days.
