Template:Adoption description

Wiki admins are responsible for leading the community -- making sure new people are welcomed, encouraging communication, and setting a calm and polite example for how people should work together on the wiki. They're also responsible for protecting the content from vandalism -- admins can protect and delete pages, and block vandals.

Admin status is usually granted by the wiki's founder (in young projects) or by community discussion (in more active wikis).

In cases where the existing admins have stopped contributing to the project, the wiki can be adopted by other community members. If you'd like to adopt a wiki, please add your request below.

Your request is more likely to succeed when:


 * You've contributed to the wiki's content
 * You have the support of other active members of the community
 * The current admins have not contributed to the wiki for more than 60 days
 * You have created/customized a welcome template, and you've welcomed all of the new contributors on Recent changes
 * You have not founded, adopted or been given admin access on another wiki in the last 60 days

Please add your request below! It is helpful to links to your Contributions list on the wiki, and to any discussions you've had with other editors about adminship.
