Forum:AR:Adoption request for Caillou Wiki

Forums: Index &rarr; Adoption requests &rarr;

What is your username? ProfessorTofty

Please link to the wiki here: Caillou Wiki

How many edits have you made on that wiki? 17

How many days/months have you been editing there? 9 days.

On the Special Pages -> Special:ListUsers when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it? August 4, 2009, iloveyou111, the wiki creator.

Any other information: Only one other active registered user at the moment. However, my attempt at a cordial conversation with her regarding the blanking of a page about a controversial subject was met with her removing my message from her talk page.

The wiki is desperately in need of an admin to remove numerous junk pages and images that have no relevance to the subject at hand, and to monitor for vandal edits. That, and various cleanup of existing pages and other sprucing up.

Comment
This application was made 04:31, May 31, 2012 and there seem to be more than one active editor now:
 * June has Tofty, PrettyKitty and Barnett
 * May had AprilOllie, Pussychick, Bartboy, Satantribones22, Rodney16 and MiklosMac.

Just thinking they might want to add some input. +Yc 01:38, June 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * The first user that you mentioned, PrettyKitty, is the one I mentioned before who chose to remove my comment from her talk page when I attempted to engage with her regarding a decision to blank a page. She's already undone your attempt to restore the contents of her talk page and undid your edit to mine as well. I don't see how I can engage with such a user. As for Barnett, he made a single minor edit to a page after I submitted this application and hasn't otherwise been active since February. As for the other users you mentioned, none of them of have recently edited content pages and one of them actually created a page titled "Caillou and Caillou Wiki Sucks." As for another - "Pussychick" - does that really sound like the name of a legitimate user? No, sorry, but from what I can tell, there is nobody else who could actually add input.

 * Even if people have not been recently active, if they have a history of hundreds of edits, I think it's worth at least contacting them about it. If you could link the diff of the 'caillou sucks' person, I'll rescind any consideration I might've had for their vote. As for the last: it can refer to cats like Gilbert, I try to judge people on edits, no pseudonyms. Anyway w:c:Caillou:forum:Adoption is a thread I started to discuss this on the community, if anyone shows up. +Yc 16:27, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

An additional note: edits such as these are a good reason to judge the person a bad contributor ;) They've already been blocked. +Yc 16:37, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

Response
Hi. It looks like Prettykitty hasn't been on the wiki since you told her about the forum. Let's give her (and any other good contributors) a few more days to reply. We'll check back in a few days (you may want to remind me on my message wall as the usual checkback is in a week). -- Wendy (talk ) 22:48, June 6, 2012 (UTC)
