Sadly, Josephyr has retired from Wikia, so he probably won't respond to this message. However, it is well known that attracting contributors to your wiki is the hardest part of building one. Some methods to do so are listed here under "Attracting contributors." Also, adopting is not a way to promote a wiki, it simply gives you admin and bcrat rights, so if you are already an admin it makes no difference. And you are allowed to attract users to your wiki here on Central, as long as you don't spam it everywhere and maybe just make a blog post. The reason people get banned for advertising their wiki is because they spam the link over and over again in chat, which isn't advisable.
