Forum:AR:Adoption request for he.Doctor Who Wiki

Forums: Index &rarr; Adoption requests &rarr;

What is your username? This is a joint request by:
 * Puchplimmirdeyslithin
 * CzechOut

Please link to the wiki here: w:c:he.doctorwho

How many edits have you made on that wiki? How many days/months have you been editing there?
 * 796 (Puchplimmirdeyslithin)
 * 25 (CzechOut)
 * since 26 January 2012 (Puch)
 * since 28 October 2012 (CzechOut)

On the Special Pages -> Special:ListUsers when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it?

1 May 2012, Shaiephraim

Any other information:

All named bureaucrats — DuduDoctor, Shaiephraim, and NoyK — have been long absent from the wiki.


 * Shaiephraim has been there most recently, but that was in May 2012. He or she has not even signed into Wikia for four months.
 * NoyK appears to have only been on the wiki (and, oddly, Wikia itself) for one day, 6 March 2010
 * DuduDoctor hasn't edited on the wiki since 6 July 2011, but is still an active Wikian. He's logged into Wikia as recently as yesterday, and appears to be more or less daily active over at w:c:e4-misfits.  I have left him messages at w:c:e4-misfits:Thread:4992, tardis:user talk:DuduDoctor and w:c:he.doctorwho:user talk:DuduDoctor, but he's declined to answer any of them in the past month.  Given that he's active on Wikia and a few weeks have passed, I think it's now safe to assume that he's simply choosing not to answer, and that he's disclaiming interest in continuing to manage w:c:he.doctorwho

This application is mainly done on behalf of Puchplimmirdeyslithin, who clearly wants to become an admin, as expressed in his own words at w:c:he.doctorwho:user talk:CzechOut. However, I'm adding my name to the request simply because it has historically been difficult to keep the Hebrew Doctor Who community alive. Bureaucrats there have a tendency to walk away from the project. To my knowledge, this is the third attempt at a Hebrew DW wiki. It is by far the most successful, and I don't want to see it dry up. Thus I'm putting my name on the request as a sort of "backup bureaucrat" in the event that something should happen to Puch.

But please don't let this application fail simply because I don't nominally meet the requirements for adoption. Puch in every way passes the litmus tests for adoption. He's been on this wiki a heck of a lot of the days of 2012. He's the one that's actually made it grow to 501 articles, and he would in any case be the primary active bureaucrat. Were I named bureaucrat alongside Puch, this wiki would simply become less likely to return to this forum for later re-adoption. 14:26: Sat 24 Nov 2012
