Any other information:

There are almost 275 total monsters (273), of which 241 are currently released for Ranchers to obtain and raise. Of these 241, I have 239 documented in my ingame Monster Wiki. The last two I'll have soon, they are just breeds of Garu. I placed Rank 6 in the recent week-long event: Prizes were awarded to the top 300 Ranchers, backgrounds to the top 200, and the Tier-1 Prize was awarded to the Top 20 Rancher. I have contacts with other Ranchers, and am constantly in-the-know. Any information I have that I am uncertain of, I can check with other Ranchers of the game to verify before adding to the Wikia, many of which are also top-ranked Breeders.

This Wikia had almost nothing on it when I started. It has all the 241 known listed, but that is about it. Not all of them had pages, and more than half of the ones that do have pages didn't have any content added to them (they were copy-pasted templates that looked identical with each other). A very few select monsters were given attention, recieving details and pictures, before the original Admins dropped their interest.

I have picked up this Wikia and am adding to it religiously. I've developed a format for the entries of Specific Breeds and for Monster Families. I'm adding in Initial Stats, descriptions, how to obtain, Trivia, and more. I just completed a very unpleasant process to be able to obtain screenshots of the game on my phone just to be able to add these images into the Wikia. All 239 monsters available to me have been screenshotted. I've contacted users to start taking notes of the Trianing Confidences of their active monsters plus favorite foods; Both can only be checked while a Monster is active on your ranch, it cannot be checked in the Academy nor the in-game Monster Wiki. Favorite/Hated foods can vary, but generally have two options, one being common and the other uncommon. I've formatted, expanded, added, editted, corrected, and otherwise made the entire Adventures section presentable. I've gone through at least 53 of the 241 available monsters, but much of my delay on progressing is backtracking as I return to correct or change things so that all the entries are the same as each other. I will continue on until all 241 are complete.

I have a livestream channel which gets 10's of 1000's of viewer minutes per week (7 days per week = 10,080 minutes per week.) People from the MMR game and other games I've played join there to watch, and there is much encouragement for me to finish this project through to the end.

I've researched the most recently active editor with a registered account on this wikia, sent her a message and got her added in-game. Hopefully some collaboration with this can be formed, however her edits were made 7 days ago, so the benefits of this are uncertain. 6 days ago "A Wikia Contributor" last added to the Wikia.

However, certain things are bothering me. Not being able to delete misnamed or redundant pages is rather troubling. Also, not being able to rename or delete a misnamed image is most unsettling, especially since I cannot upload the same image with the correct name (the quick-fix I use for pages that deserve to be deleted.)

I do understand that this request is made 24 hours early. However, I will doubtfully have anything to add to this request within the next 24 hours, except to augment the number of entries I've managed to update/complete and the number of total edits I would have made. It is my hope that this request be allowed to sit for 24 hours to get to the minimum 7-day period before being addressed. If it is truly problematic that this request was made a day early, I will gladly resubmit this request (modified) when the proper date has arrived.
