On the Special Pages -> Special:ListUsers when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it? w:c:Mako:Special:ListUsers/sysop: the founder made his last (and fourth, so he may not show up unless you select 'show under 5') edit 12:50, July 22, 2010. Hasn't signed on since 15:40, September 11, 2010

Any other information:

I'm not entirely clear what the wiki's original purpose was. Based on the founder's contributions it appears to have been used to advertise a music-downloading program called Spotify and contact some guy named Tristan who never edited there before. I'm not sure how the title 'Patrick' fits into that, since the URL is 'mako'. The only 'mako' connection is a shark icon which I assume is a Mako Shark.

I contacted the founder on July 17, 2012 and he hasn't signed on since then, so I'm assuming he's probably abandoned Wikia.

My intent is to reappropriate the URL for the anime series Mahou no Mako chan also known as "Magical Mako" (see ANN profile). It ran from 1970-71 with 48 episodes and was a presentation of the classic story "The Little Mermaid" which predates things like Disney's adaptation of it.

Naturally this means I'd want to change that strange 'Patrick' title. That's just the name of the adoption request because that's currently what it is... yup.

So far I've created several character pages based on people who were named in the first episode. I'm hoping to continue expanding it as I learn about more characters in the series, and build a wiki about its universe. +Yc 05:16, November 10, 2012 (UTC)
