Community Central:Adoption requests

Sabrinia, the Teenage Witch (Declined)
I have one last request. I would like to adopt the Sabrina the Teenage Witch wiki. It seems to have been desserted for the past month, or longer. Elbutler 19:19, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Elbutler. See the guidelines above.  You need to have contributed for 2 weeks, welcomed other users, and added 20 new articles; so far you've only contributed 1 day on this wiki.  I think it's great that you want to find a new wiki to work on, but you can do almost everything you need to get this wiki going without being an admin. Once you've contributed more we'll be happy to look at your request again. -- Wendy  (talk ) 18:53, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I am turning down this request as you haven't made any further edits on the wiki. I hope that we'll see more help from you there soon.  — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Bakugan Fanon Wiki (Declined)
I would like to be a sysop on this wiki. I have been making helpful templates on the wiki, and so, i can do other things too while being a sysop.Digisapien 21:57, 2 November 2008 (UTC)


 * You're off to a nice start, Digisapien. Please check back in a week or so after you've created some more pages, and we'll be happy to provide you with the admin tools.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk)


 * I am turning down this request as you haven't made any further edits on the wiki. I hope that we'll see more help from you there soon.  — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Open Source (Declined)
There are countless sources out there for free source code, and this wiki is now inactive -- no wonder, there is little interest in another. Instead, I would like to use opensource.wikia.com to become a common knowledge base among open source communities. We all clearly have common problem as the recent GSoC mentor summit showed and yet the communication between us is really low.


 * I see you made some edits for a few days, but haven't been back. Have you lost interest in this project?  — Catherine (talk) 05:52, 9 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I am turning down this request as you haven't made any further edits on the wiki. I hope that we'll see more help from you there soon.  — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Teen Titans again (Declined)
(from User Talk:Merrystar) Hello Merrystar, a short while ago I requested to adopt the TT Wiki but you said I needed to make more contributions, and I have so can I adopt it now? If not could you at least block User:Simon10? He keeps messing up the Kitten page no matter how many times someone edits it! So please if not the adminship could you at least do something about him please?

Sweatshirt Shiro 02:26, 22 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi. I took care of the problem user for you.  You've done a great job over the past few weeks on the wiki adding content -- I'm impressed!  I see that there are now a few other users which changes things a little.  Could you please welcome them on their talk pages, and make a template to welcome any further contributors (per the guidelines on this page).  And then set up a page in either the Forum or the Community Portal (or wherever you want) saying that you want to adopt the wiki, and inviting comments.  I can help with a sitenotice to make sure people know about it.  If you want to see an example, go to admins on Charmed Wiki to see how it works.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 02:47, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your interest -- please open a discussion with the other users as Wendy suggests, and let us know the outcome. We'll be happy to hand out the admin tools then.  Good luck!  — Catherine (talk) 00:56, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Courage (Declined)
Hi. I would like to adopt the Courage wiki. It's inactive, and I've been making lots of edits, and creating several pages.Super grit 23:36, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Super grit. You're doing a nice job on the wiki.  It appears that the founder made an edit on the wiki about a week ago.  Could you please ask him about becoming a sysop?  -- Wendy  (talk ) 02:27, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I see that User:Acethebob hasn't answered your question, but you also seem to have stopped making edits at http://courage.wikia.com -- have you lost interest in this project? — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Since you don't appear to have any further interest in this project, I am closing this request. — Catherine (talk) 00:56, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Combat Arms Wiki (Accepted)
I sent an e-mail request for this to KyleH. I'm incredibly active on it and work extremely hard. Please and thank you. I would like to become an admin as I have done more edits than anyone to this wiki. I janitor it, visit daily, make templates and updates, and would appreciate acceptance. Coraircate 22:58, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Coraircate! I'm afraid that I didn't receive your email, but nonetheless, it looks like you've been doing really good work on the wiki.  That said, there are several other contributors who should have a say in who becomes an admin.  I have posted a sitenotice on the wiki to give people an opportunity to voice their opinions.  Once that has been up for a few days, post a note back here and we can proceed with whatever you guys decide.  --KyleH (talk) 01:17, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The forum showed no objections, so I've given you admin and bureaucrat rights, Coraircate. Please use them well!  You can use Special:UserRights to give admin rights to others if you like.  — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

I wanna adopt the CAW Wikia (Accepted)
I've been asking for months to adopt the CAW Wikia, and STILL nothing. There are countless number of vandalism, and I can't do much of anything. If I adopt the CAW Wikia, I can stop it. XtremeTony 05:03, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

CAW Wikia Adoption
As an impartial party,

I am sick of seeing CAW's Wikia being vandalised. There are people who have CAWs and CAW leagues that work hard on their profiles as they do on their leagues.

Now take it for what you will but we either need someone who's always going to remain neutral and nip trouble in the bud or institute a new rule for the Wikias where ONLY people who have signed up can edit pages. I wish I could say I'm qualified for it but there is no qualification for it.....Give someone the job and see what they can do. That's all I have to say.

BlackProductions2k7 05:18, 4 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm willing to adopt the CAW Wikia. Hope that it happens XtremeTony 03:09, 6 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Since there's an active community on this wiki, I've opened up a discussion at http://caw.wikia.com/wiki/CAW_Wrestling_Wiki_talk:Community_Portal -- let me know when the discussion is concluded and I'll hand out the rights as needed. Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 05:52, 9 November 2008 (UTC)


 * OK, since there seem to be no objections, I have made XtremeTony and BlackProductions2k7 co-admins for the wiki. Good luck!  — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

UnRuneScape (Accepted)
There has been some sustained editing by other users, but only recently, and there are no active Beaurocrats or reliably active Admins. Though these requirements are not strictly met, I think I deserve at least Sysop status for my contributions, but cannot do so due to inactivity on the Wiki. The Wiki is not up for adoption; I asked on the forums, and was directed here.-- 17:49, 6 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for putting up a Request for Adminship at http://unrunescape.wikia.com/wiki/RFA:Pig_House -- we'll check back on it in a few days to see if anyone else in the community has any comments. Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 18:32, 13 November 2008 (UTC)


 * You have unanimous support -- I've gone ahead and given you the rights. Enjoy! — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

spongebob (Declined)
The spongebob wiki has no admins to block vandals so I want to be an admin. I've been there since the 28th. --Squidward Squarepants 01:17, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

please? Squidward Squarepants 17:58, 8 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi. The current admin at Spongebob, User:AMK152, was last active about 3 weeks ago.  Please contact him on his talk page with your request.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 19:48, 9 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Please talk to the community on active wikis. Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Research situation in Italy (Declined)
I would like to use this Wiki to start a discussion in particular among Italian researchers who are working abroad to share our demands about research situation in Italy and then to turn these demands into projects to carry out together. This Wiki could a starting point to create an association of Italian researchers.


 * Hi, is there an existing wiki you are interested in adopting? I couldn't find anything specific to Italian researchers.   If not, you can ask to create a new wiki at http://requests.wikia.com/wiki/Special:RequestWiki -- thanks! — Catherine (talk) 18:32, 13 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Please re-open this request if you can provide more detail. — Catherine (talk) 23:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Weebl's Stuff Wiki (Accepted)
After an embarrassing experience at the Requests Wiki, I became the only active member of this abandoned wiki and I gave the owner over a week to come back, like Catherine suggested, and he didn't, so I'm requesting to take the wiki over. I even redesigned the Main Page, the logo, and the welcome template. So far, I've made/remade 25 decent pages and I think it's ready for me to adopt. Here all of my edits there. Also, If I get the powers, can you change it's name to Weeblpedia? JCM (talk&middot;edits) 01:27, 12 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the effort you've put in there; it's starting to come together nicely. I have granted admin tools to your JCM account and I look forward to seeing what you do with the project.


 * As to a name change, we've found that sites ranks higher in search engines if the wiki's topic ("Weebl's Stuff"), which people are most likely to use as search keywords, is used in the sitename.  We can change it if you really want to, but it may make it harder for people to find your project.   — Catherine (talk) 18:50, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, could you do something like the Wookieepedia, with a surname with the topic's name in it? I'd like it to be "Weeblpedia, the wiki about Weebl's Stuff", but the project namespace be Weeblpedia. JCM (talk&middot;edits) 00:05, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * No, that's not a surname. Wookieepedia appears as Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki because of their modifications to MediaWiki:Pagetitle (See w:c:starwars:MediaWiki:Pagetitle). You can do the same. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 14:19, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but can I at least change the project namespace to be Weeblpedia? JCM (talk&middot;edits) 00:44, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Ask a Staffmember; I don't have the ability to do that. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 05:15, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I've changed the name of the Project namespace for you. Keep up the good work!  — Catherine (talk) 20:09, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Voltron (Accepted)
I tried to create a Voltron Wiki since there isn't one yet, but I got the message there already was one. I look through the list of wiki, and its not there, no requested wiki called Voltron to be found anywhere at all, nor is it on the adopt a wiki page. If someone else was going to make it, shouldn't it be listed somewhere? Please help. There is a lot of great information which those editing the regular Wikipedia thought made the article far too long, and I want to restore it since I found all that stuff interesting, plus add additional things as well. Dream Focus 23:28, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi, Voltron has been requested before here, but unfortunately was rejected. You can ask one of the Community Team members to create it for you.-- BlueDevil Talk 23:44, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorted by Catherine. Wiki is now available at voltron with Dream Focus as founder. -- 02:36, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Oddopedia (Declined)
Can I adopt it? -- 17:45, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * It looks like you've only made a handful of edits there last June -- please work on improving the wiki for a couple of weeks and then we can reconsider. — Catherine (talk) 20:09, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Fight Club (Declined)
I was wondering if I can adopt it. I've been making some edits to it and need to be admin to improve it further as far the side and top bars go. -- 10:42 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * The wiki definitely needs some love; however, it looks like you've only edited for one day so far. Please keep working on improving the wiki and show us your dedication to the topic, and we'll be happy to hand out the rights.  Any staff member or helper can make changes to the menus in the meantime -- just let us know.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 20:09, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Left 4 Dead (Withdrawn)
Hello-

I am asking to be added as an administrator/bureaucrat for the Left 4 Dead wiki. The current administrator is ShadoW, and he did a very good job on creating a wiki for an unreleased game, but now that it's almost time for the game to be released (it is released the 18th), a lot of people are going to be adding content to the wiki and several things need to be changed around (such as a few things on the side-menu thing, whatever it's called).

I've spent several hours editing the wiki, and I'm soon going to look into overhauling the CSS if at all possible. I check up on the wiki at least once a day to see if anything has changed of importance, and I've had a clean track record with Wikia.

I know that pretty much none of the main requirements for adoption are fulfilled here (ShadoW was on the wiki eight days ago), but with a game so close to release, it is my opinion that the wiki needs a dedicated, consistent administrator/bureaucrat to keep things in line, even if it is just temporary until ShadoW starts to become active again. I've left messages on his user talk page, but he has yet to reply to them.

Thank you for taking the time to look over my request.

takua108 09:09, 16 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Never mind, I guess I'm a sysops now :) takua108 11:39, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

F1 Wiki (Accepted)
I would like to adopt the F1 Wiki. I have been working on the wiki for over 2 weeks along with a friend who has been helping. I would like admin capabilities to vastly expand what has already been started. --Gasheaduk 23:40, 16 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Excellent work so far, Gasheaduk! Could you please create a welcome template and start using it to say hello to new users?  If User:BananaCat is your friend you might not have felt the need to welcome him, but we feel that talking to new users is a really important part of being an admin.  Once that's done I'll be happy to give you the admin tools.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 20:09, 18 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I have added a welcome message to the Wiki and also added this to the Main Page. Please let me know if there is anything else that is needed. --Gasheaduk 20:36, 18 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you! I've made you an admin.  — Catherine (talk) 01:53, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Kingdom Hearts PT (Accepted)
I would like to adopt the Kingdom Hearts PT http://pt.kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/P%C3%A1gina_principal. The administrator is not active since 19 of September. I've created more than 20 pages here are all my contributions: http://pt.kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/Especial:Contribui%C3%A7%C3%B5es/ZexionBrasil. I'm the only person writing on the wiki and active. I'm posting news on the site since yesterday. Before me there were only 4 articles and now there are 31 articles. zexionbrasil 16:58, 17 November 2008 (Gmt- 03:00)


 * Great start, Zexion! Thanks for following the adoption guidelines.  I have given you administrator rights.  Please keep creating pages, and be sure to watch Especial:Mudanças_recentes and say hello when new users arrive -- this is very important to helping your wiki grow!  Best of luck to you.  — Catherine (talk) 20:09, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

TUGS Wiki (Accepted)
I would like to become an admin for the TUGS wiki. It's been way more than 60 days, I've contributed well to the wiki, I've welcomed others on different sites. Really the site is in dire need for cleaning up and deleting some made up pages. I've improved a template. I would very like to help with the wiki. --Vitas 20:58, 18 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Vitas,


 * I see you've been working on the wiki for quite some time, you'll need to create 16 more new articles and continue your great work on expanding existing articles. Ensure to welcome new users as well, this is important to helping the wiki grow. Keep in mind there is a TUGS Fanon wiki available if you encounter that kind of content on the wiki. -- 16:35, 20 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Yep, as Charitwo said, keep up the good work for a couple of weeks and we'll be happy to give you adminship. Good luck!  — Catherine (talk) 01:53, 23 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your persistence; I have given you admin and bureaucrat rights. Please use them well!  — Catherine (talk) 22:32, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Infinite Undiscovery wiki (Accepted)
The current rules set up really do not work for this wiki as it is undermade and abaonded 2 months ago by the founder. I have made its existance known on GameFAQ and am asking pwople i know on wikipedia to help me finish the needed stuff like templates and whatnot. Waiting two weeks would be a waste of time as would the article limit as most would be tiny and underformed. --Jakezing2 22:30, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hellos?--Jakezing2 01:43, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * How inefficent--Jakezing2 16:11, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Jakezing2,
 * The two weeks is a reasonable allotment in order for you to show us what kind of work you'd put in on the wiki. There is actually lots of work that can be done on inactive wikis as a regular contributor before adoption is needed. If you need help understanding any of the requirements, I'd be glad to answer any questions you might have. You'll need to work on the wiki for about a little over a week and a half more and create 18 more new articles and continue to expand existing articles. Ensure to welcome any of the contributors that you're trying to attract, this is important to building a strong and healthy community. If you need some good tips, the Wikia Help wiki has some good advice pages to get you inspired to build both content and community. Good luck. -- 16:28, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes lets create 18 more articles, who the hell decided that rule.--Jakezing2 18:29, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * According to the history of Template:Adoption description, it was CatherineMunro. However, I must advice you to calm down. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 18:38, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * how many more to go.--Jakezing2 13:15, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I've checked your edit count on that wiki, you've currently got over 13 mainspace edits so you'll need five more articles being created.  Dark  Obsidian   13:32, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Jakezing2, the guidelines were put in place to make sure that people were really interested in working on the topic, not just looking for a new "badge" to wear. If a person is not willing to work on a wiki for two weeks, or to help build new content, then we don't feel they are reliable or interested enough to be a good administrator. The new pages will only be "tiny and underformed" if that's the way you make them, since building good articles is not something that requires admin rights. Please show us what you're capable of and we will be happy to hand out the tools. — Catherine (talk) 01:53, 23 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the hard work; you've been doing nice things on the wiki. I've given you the rights, please use them well!  — Catherine (talk) 22:32, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

starshiptroopers.wikia.com (Accepted)
Hello. I have been editing a wikia called starshiptroopers.wikia.com for over two months now. The wiki was basicly abandoned when I began editing and so far I have done the vast majority of the> editing along with one other person on it, and have completely reorganised it to make the site much easier to access and to understand. I have added dozens of new pages to it and where possible tried to reuse pages already set up from about a year ago (i believe). Currently there are only two people actively editing this wikia of which I am one, and I have done the vast amount of editing on it (neither of us are admistrators however have been working together to improve the site, and keep in regular contact). I have added three links to the main page so as to keep diffent universes (if that would be the correct word) of Starship Troopers appart ie I added a film section, a tv section, and a section for the Novel. I wondering if it could be made possible for me to adopt this wikia as I am wanting to improve it further and make it look more attractive so hopefully to be able to draw. I dont edit on any other wiki. Thankyou very much. VARGR 00:10, 19 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey, VARGR!


 * It looks like you've done some excellent work on this wiki. I'm impressed with all the new content you've created and expanded upon in the last two weeks. As you mentioned, JustPhil is also contributing to the wiki. You should get with him and see what he thinks about a new admin for the wiki, whether it be you, him, or even both of you. I'm sure staff will have no problem with either of these choices, you've both put some good work into the wiki. -- 16:46, 20 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Charitwo.


 * I've just spoken to Justphil on msn a few minutes ago and we are both intrested in gaining admin status for this wiki. Do I just say to you here or is there anywhere I need to go? Thanks VARGR 19:04, 20 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey, can you both make that designation on a talk page on the wiki and link it here? When Catherine goes through here and processes approvals, she may want to see that discussion in the form of a diff. -- 19:33, 20 November 2008 (UTC)


 * http://starshiptroopers.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:VARGR We have both agreed to it and written it here. Thanks VARGR 22:31, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I've given rights to both of you -- please use them well!  — Catherine (talk) 01:53, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

--Usman mansoor 13:41, 21 November 2008 (UTC)


 * If you want to create a wikia site for the Pashto Language, if it's not already made please file a request in Forum:Proposed wikis and provide the idea in full description; a wikia staff will review it and will notify you if it has been approved. Dark  Obsidian   19:11, 21 November 2008 (UTC)


 * We have the beginnings of a Pashto Central wiki at http://ps.wikia.com/ -- we would welcome your help to make it a useful guide to Wikia's wikis like this English one is. If you'd like to start a new Pashto wiki about a particular topic, like philosophy or computers or television shows, you can describe what you want at the Requests Wikia.  Just choose "ps - Pashto" in the language selector for your request.  Thank you very much for your interest! — Catherine (talk) 01:53, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Sonic News Network PT (Accepted)
Hi there. I would like to adopt the abandoned Portuguese Sonic News Network, since there aren't any active beaurucrats ou adiministrator for many months. I've been creating new pages and editing existing ones, but I would like to have admin tools to turn this wiki more well known, with a more attractive look and to fix some misleading information that I can't change as a normal user. Greatly appreciated. Alexrd 15:53, 22 November 2008 (UTC)


 * You've got a great start on the wiki, and there doesn't seem to be anyone else working on it right now. Please keep working for another week or so, and keep creating new pages.  You can also create a user page for yourself, and create a welcome template at http://pt.sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Predefinição:Welcome (or at the Portuguese word for "Welcome"), so that when new users arrive you are prepared to say hello to them.  Please keep up the good work and we will give you the admin tools soon.  — Catherine (talk) 01:53, 23 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I've been creating more new pages and already created an template. Is there anything left?Alexrd 16:37, 28 November 2008 (UTC)


 * No, you've made great progress and I'm pleased with how the wiki is growing. Please continue to watch for new users on Recent changes (Mudanças recentes), and building new pages -- it's the best way to attract and build a healthy community!  Good luck — Catherine (talk) 22:32, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Dead Space wiki (Accepted)
I'm requesting adminship on the Dead Space wiki. The previous admin (MasterM) hasn't answered the message I left them on their talk page. I've made many edits and overall expanded many pages on the wiki, and added a link to wikipedia to increase traffic (Yes, it was that unknown). There are only a few active users (5 or so) and an admin is needed. I haven't had a discussion on adminship because there isn't really an active community. I've also begun welcoming new contributors. My Contributions Nightmare Hobo 20:35, 22 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Even if there are only a few active users, then they should have a say in who becomes the admin. Can you please open a discussion on the forum or community portal, inviting them to comment?  We can link to it in a sitenotice so that we're sure everyone has a chance to comment.  If the response is positive, then we'll be happy to give you the admin rights soon -- it looks like you've been doing a really nice job so far.  — Catherine (talk) 01:53, 23 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Sure thing. I made a topic on the forum, here's the link. Nightmare Hobo 02:45, 23 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, the two most active contributors besides me have commented. Nightmare Hobo 20:10, 24 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Great! It looks like support is unanimous so I've given you the tools.  Please keep doing your best to build this community!  — Catherine (talk) 00:20, 25 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks a lot! Nightmare Hobo 00:55, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Dutch Runescape Wiki (Accepted)
Hi, I would like to adopt the Dutch RuneScape Wiki (http://nl.runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Hoofdpagina). I was told there are no more active Admins there. Here for my contributions. Therealmagicrune 13:58, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your interest! It looks like you have been editing there a long time, and that the other active user Darth Stefan agrees that an admin is needed; you can use w:c:nl.runescape:Speciaal:Gebruikersrechten if you'd like to share admin rights with him.  Please keep creating new pages and welcoming new users, and I hope to see the community continue to grow!  — Catherine (talk) 00:20, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Tyvm Catherine, I've given Darth Stefan Sysop status as well. Therealmagicrune 09:57, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Worms Wikia (On hold)
I would like to adopt worms.wikia.com.


 * You're off to a good start there. Please keep creating new pages, and ask the other active users if they think you will be a good admin.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 00:20, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Warcraft Fanon Wikia (Not an adoption request)
I have been one of three admins on the Warcraft Fanon Wiki for some time now as well as one of its most active contributors. For some months now, the min admin, Koops has been inactive; his last contribution was in July and his last actual content was added in December 2007. Otherwise, he has been largely absent; policy on the site has been passed by two of the admins working together and voting - each time a vote has been called for, Koops has bveen completely absent.

At this stage, I feel that the Wiki cannot continue to run without having its cheif admin/sysop present. --Darthfish 01:21, 26 November 2008 (UTC)


 * If you have two active admins, then there's no need for Koops to participate. Many -- I might even say most -- wiki communities continue to grow and thrive long after their founder has moved on to other things.   It's one of the beauties of the medium!  You have bureaucrat powers, so if you feel the need for additional admins, you can use Special:UserRights to give "sysop" rights to other trusted active users.


 * There's also no need to remove admin powers from inactive admins, unless they do something harmful to the wiki; Koops might move/graduate/have some other life change that enables him to come back to the wiki at a later time. Please keep up the good work!  — Catherine (talk) 02:06, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Touhou Español (Accepted)
he notado existe este espacio pero no se le ha dado contribuciones en modo informatico. la persona encargada no ha editado ni completado los articulos faltantes que tecnicamente son muchos llevando unicamente la pagina de inicio y uno de los muchos articulos faltantes llevando ausente o sin movimiento esa seccion mas de 60 dias. he estado contribuyendo poco a poco y aunque aun me falta cosas por arpender sinceramente las ando aprendiendo con tal de sacar la seccion a flote pese a eso es de notarse como poco a poco la pagina se esta llenando de informacion y de los articulos ordenados. por mi parte quisiera pedir adoptar el wiki de touhou en español. aqui les dejo el link para que lo chequen no tiene mucho movimiento almenos no por parte de la persona "encargada" de ella : http://es.touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Portada

saludos


 * Hola OMEGA ZERO. He visto tus contribuciones y creo que será muy bueno que puedas reactivar ese wiki, invitando a nuevos usuarios y consiguiendo que el número de artículos crezca. Te he nombrado admin ahí y dejo más detalles en tu página de discusión en ese wiki. Un saludo cordial --Zuirdj (talk - mensajes) 13:30, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Manchester United (Declined)
I really want a Manchester United wiki page plz! Also, how do you adopt the wiki?


 * The Manchester United Wiki does look like it has been inactive since August, but you haven't made any edits there yet. Please go to http://manutd.wikia.com and start creating and improving articles.  You can resubmit a request to adopt at a later time.  — Catherine (talk) 20:01, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Comida (Declined)
Recetas, platillos gourmet, para aprender a cocinar


 * Are you interested in the Spanish Gastronomia wiki? There's a somewhat active community there -- I suggest you talk to the others there about who should gain admin rights.  Thank you!  — Catherine (talk) 22:32, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Adopting MUGEN (Declined)
Its getting worser. I must take care of it. User:C&T


 * The user OpenBSD became the new admin for the MUGEN wiki just a couple of weeks ago. Though he hasn't been on the last few days, I don't see that anyone else other than you has been editing there, so it doesn't seem to be "getting worse".  Please keep editing and improving pages, and talk to OpenBSD if you would like to earn adminship.  Thank you!  — Catherine (talk) 22:32, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Custom Robo Wikia (Accepted)
I know I haven't really proven myself yet, but I plan on maiking this wiki great. In addition, it seems that the only beaurucrat not only has not been on the wiki since March, but he/ she also locked the main page, basically stopping all growth on the wiki. However, if you allow me to adopt the wiki, I will revive this wiki. If you don't believe I have done enough for the wiki, that is fine; I will simply edit as much as I can and try to revive the wikia. Thank you for your consideration. Oh, and here is a link to the main page. -- Halberdier  Reporting for Duty!  03:08, 27 November 2008 (UTC)


 * You've done some nice work there. I see that Murzon has gone ahead and made you an admin.  Please be sure to keep building pages and welcoming new users!  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 22:32, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Left Behind Kids (Declined)
I appear to be the only one who has worked on this page. even though i just joined i will update it as much as i can Tressino100


 * The only wiki you seem to have worked on is http://leftbehindkids.wikia.com/ -- is that the one you'd like to adopt? Please work on fulfilling the guidelines on this page -- work on it for two weeks and create new pages.  You might also want to customize the welcome template there so you're ready to say hello to new users if you see them on Recentchanges.  Best of luck to you!


 * I am closing this request for now since you have not made any further edits. If you'd like to put more work into it later we'll be happy to have you re-apply for adoption.  — Catherine (talk) 10:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Torn City Wiki (Declined)
Dear sir or madam [to whom this may concern],

I would like to adopt the Torn City wiki. I have taken the liberty to take the qualifiactions for adoption and answer the questions. [snipped]

I wish to adopt this site to help my fellow players of Torn City, my name and ID in Torn City are Telemachus [794307], if you wish to contact me via Torn City. I have a vast knowledge of Torn City, and new things are always coming out, and I will let players create pages about themselves. I also have other ideas, and I know that even more ideas will come to me later.

I hope you approve my request, you surely will not regret it.

Sincerely,

Telémakhos (Telemachus [794307])

PS - If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me.


 * Thanks for your interest, Telémakhos. You're off to a nice start today, and we'd like to see what you can do over the next two weeks to fulfill the guidelines at the top of the page -- please concentrate on creating new articles and making the wiki a friendly place for new users.  We'll follow up soon and be happy to hand out the admin tools when you're ready.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 23:44, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

CSI Wiki (On hold)
I'm currently working on CSI Wiki with the help of another user. It would help to to have admin rights. G B 05:00, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi GB. You and User:Sec 1971 are doing a really nice job putting the CSI wiki back together.  It's great to see that you've customized the welcome template and are adding new content.  However, you have only been on the wiki about 9 days so far and have about 10 new articles.  Please get back to us when it has been 2 weeks and you have written 20 new articles per the guidelines at the top of this page.  Looking at what you have done so far, I think you should have no trouble meeting these two criteria by next week :).  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:22, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Tom and Jerry Wiki (On hold)
I would like to adopt the Tom and Jerry Wiki. No admins have worked there since a while ago. And I can honestly say I know a lot about Tom and Jerry. So may I adopt this Wiki?

--Ivanovsson 23:06, 28 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your interest, Ivanovsson. You've done some very nice editing there today, with a handful of new pages.  Please continue to work on expanding the wiki.  You can also create a user page for yourself, and customize the welcome template and start saying hello to other users.  When you've edited for about two weeks, we'll be happy to look at giving you admin rights.  Thanks!  — Catherine (talk) 00:05, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Excellent work so far! — Catherine (talk) 10:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

It has been quite a while since I started working on this wiki and I do have the requirements now. Do you think it is time for me to get admin rights?

--Ivanovsson 22:13, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Fall of Glory (Not an adoption request)
I'd like to propose a wiki for the internet novel series called "Fall of Glory". There's a lot of story and technology documented in the books that is somewhat confusing unless it's laid out. That's why I think this wiki should exist. It'd document all of that, and more.
 * To request a new wiki, please visit http://requests.wikia.com -- thanks! — Catherine (talk) 10:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Mork and Mindy wiki (On Hold)
I would like to adopt the Mork and Mindy wiki. I am a large fan of the show, the wiki is currently inactive, and the only admin/Bureaucrat there, who is the founder, has made absolutely no edits there ever. It is also very young (having only 6 articles). Thus far, I have been renovating the main page, creating templates, and creating a proper category structure... as well as creating a few articles. I have much experience as an administrator on wikia as I currently am one on Monk Wiki and Staragte Wiki, and I have been for some time. That being said, I have a large amount of knowledge on the workings of a wiki. Thanks!&mdash;Anubis 10545 22:24, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi. You are doing a great job organizing and cleaning up the Mork and Mindy wiki, and you clearly know what you are doing.  However we still need you to meet the requirements for adoption, which include editing for 2 weeks and making at least 20 new articles.  I'm sure you can manage that -- get back to us when you have done so.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:36, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Wonderland Online (Accepted)
I was wondering if the Wonderland online wiki should be up for adoption, as the founder (Riderruff) had only made 2 contributions, back in April that I saw, and the Sysop (Electrovirr), hasn't been active since this past July. Other than that, since September there have only been a few intermittent additions. I'm not sure what is considered sustained editing, but it seems to have been abandoned by those who started it. If this wiki should be up for adoption, I'd like to adopt it. I've been working on adding missing articles, making/improving templates, uploading missing images, but there are things only the admins can do. There are redirects that need to be deleted, along with many duplicate files that have been uploaded. As with shown with my contributions, I have made a good amount of additions to the site. I have also made a basic template for New User pages, and promptly put it on the pages of those who make any contributions to the site having not been there before, as do I leave a welcome message on their Talk Page thanking them. I had left a message in Electrovirr's Talk page about a project he had for a Beginner's Guide, asking for suggestions, but as he hasn't been active, I received no response. However, I took it upon myself to start creation of the guide, and it's coming along nicely. Being that there is at least some activity on the site, I'd even be up for you posting a sitenotice, asking those that are contributing if they have any objections. This site has plenty of potential as well, as most of my Google searches for Wonderland Online help topics list this wiki on the first to third pages. Sorry for the long post, and thanks ahead of time for your consideration and decision in this matter. -- 09:44, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * It looks like you have been doing good work there for a long while -- thank you for all the effort! I have given you the admin tools. — Catherine (talk) 10:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Full Metal Alchemist Wiki (On Hold)
I know that you need to be working on a wiki for two weeks to be eligible for you to adopt it, but it seems as though I need to move a lot of pages. I am atempting to change the episode pages from "Episode 1" to their title. I still have to do 41 more. There is an anti-spam that is not allowing me to do this quickly. I have added some of 70+ pages to this wiki within the past 48 hours. You can see my contributions by click the following link. I am requesting bureaucrat or sysop on this wiki so I can finish my changes and also finish what I am planning on adding. For example changing the Skin adding a Logo ect. Again I know I have not been working on the wiki the full 2 weeks but it would be a big help to me and the wiki. Thanks in advance. ~KingLinkTiger~ KingLinkTiger 17:28, 30 November 2008 (UTC)


 * The antispam happens because you're a new user there on that Wikia. Wait another day or two, and then you should be autoconfirmed, which means you won't get that message. No comment otherwise. --Sky (talk) 23:36, 1 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the information. I never knew that. ~KingLinkTiger~ KingLinkTiger 01:48, 2 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi KingLinkTiger. I'm glad you are excited about sprucing up the Full Metal Alchemist wiki, and you certainly have done a lot of hard work there.  However you do need to edit for 2 weeks as we say on this page.  You also need to have a welcome template and welcome other contributors to the wiki, which I don't see you doing in your recent changes.  Also, there appears to be some activity on the site, it would be good to create a page stating that you are working to adopt the wiki and invite comment from any other users.  I can help you put up a sitenotice.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:50, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Teacher Haven Wiki (Accepted)
http://teachers.wikia.com/

I have been working on this site for more than 2 weeks now and see that the former admin has been inactive for a long time. I would like to assume this position.

At this time, there doesn't appear to be a very active community.

Once I have more content, I propose to advertise to draw in more community members.

LisaM


 * Excellent work, Lisa -- it looks like you meet all the guidelines, so I've given you the tools. Keep building content, and be sure to invite and welcome new editors -- it's the most important part of making a wiki grow!  — Catherine (talk) 10:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Sly Cooper (On hold)
I want to help this wiki since the administrator has not edited since June, and the wiki is falling behind with only 53 articles now, and since it's administrator left. I have a lot of knowledge of the Sly Cooper franchise and I'm willing to expand it. There should be a ton of articles on there, and since I've already been on the Jak and Daxter Wiki and have created over 50 articles in 2 days I think I can handle this one. The wiki is sly.wikia.com —This unsigned comment is by Kcdude500 (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with !

Adoption of portfolio wiki (not a Wikia project)
To whomever it may concern,

I want to adopt this wiki in order to make it useful once again for students and the likes. I shall also contribute to it my own work. You can see this work through the link: http://quratulainshamim.pbwiki.com/.

I am looking forward to a positive response.

Yours Sincerely, Qurat-Ul-Ain Shamim.

flash.wikia.com (On hold)
I wish to adopt the wiki as my own as I can see no one has edited it since 2007. Now that's a long time. Catch my drift? I wish for it to be useful for people. When I was new to Flash, I spent hour on Google. Now people can come to a one stop place to learn flash.


 * I'm glad to hear about your interest! I've always felt that the Flash wiki could be a thriving and helpful project, with all of the new Flash applications and games being developed every day.  Please keep up the good work -- you've already created half a dozen new pages so you're well on your way to the 20 pages required in the adoption guidelines at the top of the page.  Since you just started there today, we will check back with you in about two weeks to make sure you are still interested in the project.  Please let us know if there is anything you need help with in the meantime! — Catherine (talk) 03:36, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi Geeklogic,


 * As Merrystar has stated in the above comment you don't qualify for the adoption you need to make substantial edits and have made more than 20 articles, please re-read the requirements on the top of the page - plus making edits such as this won't help and you'll not be able to adopt the wiki, most edits like the one which you've made constitute towards vandalism which is against wikia's policy, please be more careful next time. <font color="Black">Dark <font color="Black"> Obsidian   18:51, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

The Brickfilms Wiki
I have practically raised the Brickfilms Wiki. When I first came to it, three months ago or so, it had only one page on it. The previous admin had created one page, for himself, and had left the whole Wiki like that. So, with the help of the Wikia Community Help Email, I have steadily built up some new pages, and I'm ready to start fully customising it and advertising it. Once I have developed it fully, I will advertise it on Brickfilms.com, and it will hopefully get lots more users helping to add to the few pages that we have at the moment. I'd love to start fully customizing and adding to what could become a giant archive, and start my work on aiding the online Brickfilming community. So, because the previous admin has ditched the site, it is in dire need of full customization. I have tried to aid the wiki, but I need admin rights to fully customize it. Please, Wikia, please!!!!!

Warhammer Online Wiki Español
SPANISH

Hola, llevo tiempo trabajando en el wiki Español sobre Warhammer Online.

http://es.warhammeronline.wikia.com/wiki/Portada

El wiki lleva más de un año sin ninguna contribución y sin administradores.

Debido a que gran parte de la información son guías sobre mazmorras, guaridas, etc., requiere jugar primero y hacer capturas de pantalla para incluirlas en el wiki. Es un gran trabajo y sin administradores me expongo a que venga alguien y lo borre todo y mi trabajo no haya servido para nada.

He contribuido haciendo la página principal, un logo, y bastante información, pero no puedo arriesgarme a perder todo por culpa del vandalismo.

También me gustaría diseñar la página principal con un diseño acorde a Warhammer Online, un diseño oscuro. Tengo grandes ideas pero aún no puedo llevarlas a cabo.

Gracias por vuestro esfuerzo y por hacer ésto posible.

Yllelder

ENGLISH

Hello, take time to work on the wiki Spanish on Warhammer Online.

http://es.warhammeronline.wikia.com/wiki/Portada

The wiki is more than a year without any input and without administrators.

Given that much of the information guides are dungeons, lairs, and so on. Requires first play and making screenshots for inclusion in the wiki. It's a great job and I'm exposed to administrators that someone come and erase everything and my job has not served at all.

I contributed to the home page, a logo, and enough information, but I can not risk losing everything because of vandalism.

I would also like to design the homepage with a design according to Warhammer Online, a dark design. I have great ideas but can not carry them out.

Thank you for your effort and for making this possible.

Risk Wikia
I would like to adopt the Risk Wiki, and from what I can gather, the founder has not been active since September. I am willing to help this wiki thrive and I've already contributed alot, and plan to contribute more.

When I started editing, there were 4 pages, and now there are 22, and I basically rewrote 3 of the 4 pages by the admin. The last documented visit from the admin was in September, and he seems more inrterested in advertising and sponsership than the actual wiki.

Please consider letting me adopt the wiki. Thank you. The wiki is http://risk.wikia.com.--Matt 20 1 20:53, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
