What is your username? Black Caesar

Please link to the wiki here: Pirates of the Caribbean Wiki

How many edits have you made on that wiki? 942 so far.

How many days/months have you been editing there? A few years. I joined the Wiki on September 19, 2011.

On the Special Pages → Special:ListAdmins when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it? The last active admin was Gundolf60, on June 5, 2019. He blocked a vandal. He made his last mainspace edit on May 30, 2019.

Any other information: The situation on the Pirates of the Caribbean Wiki is slightly complicated. The last active admin, Gundolf60, was promoted by the last active bureaucrat Uskok on November 19, 2018. However, in December 2018 Uskok lost his bureaucrat and admin rights which left Gundolf60 as the only active admin. A few weeks ago Gundolf60 was asked by Spongebob456 to adopt the Wiki. You can see their conversation here. However, Gundolf60 does not want to be an admin on the Pirates of the Caribbean Wiki. He's already a bureaucrat on the Fluch der Karibik Wiki (the German version of the Pirates of the Caribbean Wiki) and he has also founded and/or adopted at least six other Wikias. His adminship on the PotC Wiki was originally intended to be only temporary, he is too busy with his work on other Wikias, and his English is not so good to allow him to be a permament admin on the PotC Wiki.

Therefore, Spongebob456 advised Gundolf60 to ask me about adopting the PotC Wiki and I said yes. I asked other users what they think about Gundolf60's idea (you can see the discussion here ) and most of them agreed with it. Today Spongebob456 gave me the green light to proceed with the adoption request so here I am, asking to adopt the PotC Wiki. Thank you for your time. Cheers. --Black Caesar (talk) 12:12, June 9, 2019 (UTC)


 * I have been talking to Hypsoline about this adoption request. She is the Community Manager assigned to this community. Based on her feedback I'm going to give you admin and bureaucrat rights and remove them to all the inactive admins, keeping Gundolft60 right now. I suggest to talk to Hypsoline about next steps, her feedback can be useful for you. Good luck with the wiki! Antonio R.
