Alice in Wonderland wiki
Hey! I am Waterwecna, a bureaucrat in Alice in Wonderland wiki! As far as I know, it hasn't received a spotlight yet. I and the other admins have been working hard on it for the last 3 months. It has over 200 pages and over 800 images. Also, it has a customized skin and looks a lot different than most wikis out there. Over the past few months we have gotten quite some new users, but our community is still really small so we could definitely use a spotlight.

Have a nice day,

 * Hi. Alice in Wonderland Wiki looks great; the custom skin is very nice.  The only issue for a spotlight is that you need to have 200 non-stub pages; since you only have 220 pages total, that means no more than 20 stubs.  Stubs are either very short pages (<300 bytes) and/or pages that include a "stub" template.  You don't really have very many -- my rough guess is if you cleaned out your stub category you would just need to expand about 10 other short articles and you would be good for this particular criterion.  Let me know on my wall if you have any questions, and when you have had a chance to add to the pages, and I'll check again.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 01:21, June 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * Awesome job cleaning those up -- I've added the wiki to the approved spotlight list! -- Wendy  (talk ) 01:41, August 24, 2012 (UTC)

The Sims Wiki (approved)
My username is LostInRiverview (talk), and I am an administrator on The Sims Wiki. We've held a community discussion regarding getting a spotlight near the end of August into the beginning of September. This would be to tie into the release of The Sims 3: Supernatural which is set for a September 4th release in N. America (Sept. 7th internationally). We've gotten spotlight about once a year for the past couple years, and our community and admins are ready for the influx of traffic. We aren't planning on making any huge changes to wiki operation in the near future, except the removal of player stories (which will actually drastically reduce the number of pages that show up on our 'stubs' list). We may add a couple new administrators but that's relatively routine for a wiki of our size. Please let me know if you've got any questions or concerns, or else you can drop a message off on our Community Portal talk page (our main wiki discussion page) if you want to ask something directly to the community.

Thanks in advance for the consideration! --  LiR speak ~ read 19:51, June 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. The Sims Wiki is in good shape. Please remind me on my wall in a couple of weeks (roughly two weeks before you want the spotlight to be up) and I will add it to the approved spotlight list.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 02:57, July 18, 2012 (UTC)

Two requests
Angry birds craptastic adventures wiki has hardly any editors. its a decent wiki, but we need more people. and annoying orange wki used to have loads of editors, but now has hardly any perminant ones.Darkapple 16:45, July 8, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. I'm sorry but Angry Birds Craptastic Adventures Wiki does not meet our spotlight criteria, which include 200 non-stub content pages.


 * Annoying Orange Wiki is in fairly good shape to meet the spotlight criteria. You do have a fair number of uncategorized pages that need to be sorted out.  Also, you should probably update your Community Corner as it links to a wiki that doesn't exist.  Let me know on my wall when you have taken care of those issues, and I will be happy to add the wiki to the approved spotlight list.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 03:47, July 18, 2012 (UTC)

Everypedia
I want to reccomend my wiki, Everypedia. However, it is called Metal fusion beyblade wiki, i want to change that, but it has over 900 articles


 * Hi. Can you give me a link to the wiki and sign your post? Otherwise I am not sure who is asking for what wiki :). Let me know on my wall when you have added the information.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 03:50, July 18, 2012 (UTC)

Alien Anthology Wiki (approved)
Hi, I would like to have more contributors to the wiki as their is only a few.

The wiki already changed alot since its founding Dino crisis fan 20:52, July 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. Alien Anthology Wiki looks fantastic -- I love your custom skin!  The only thing I see is that the main page is sysop protected.  Could you please drop the protection to only block edits from new and unregistered accounts?  Let me know on my wall when you've done that and I'll be happy to add the wiki to the approved spotlight list.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 02:45, July 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * I've added it to the list! -- Wendy  (talk ) 02:45, July 28, 2012 (UTC)

Mech Mice Fanon Wiki
The Mech Mice Fanon Wiki meets all of the requirements, except for the 200 article needed. I am the only admin and active user there, and we really need some more users! If it were to be put in the Spotlight, I'd want the caption to be: "Make anything fictional about the upcoming game Mech Mice!". And maybe the the image could be this: -- ''' User:Feey1 I am FEEY1. Speak to me! 20:47, July 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. I'm sorry, but in order to be spotlighted through this request page, wikis must meet the spotlight criteria, including 200 content pages. That is why we have the criteria. Any spotlighted wikis you see with fewer pages did not request a spotlight; they were chosen to be spotlighted by the content team staff because they are of some current interest (eg a new movie) and thus do not need to meet the criteria. Please feel free to ask again for a spotlight when your wiki has grown a bit more! -- Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:49, July 27, 2012 (UTC)

My Babysitter's a Vampire Wiki (approved)
Our wiki meets all of the criteria and season begins on June 29 so we want to be spotlighted for that. Thank you. 15:24, 26 June 2012


 * Hi. I am so sorry I did not see your request and answer it earlier; I have no idea how it got "out of order" like this.  The wiki looks great and, although it will not be near the start of the new season, I have added it to the approved spotlight list.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:15, July 27, 2012 (UTC)

Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL Wiki (duplicate answerd above)
Hello! My name is Hunter, and I am the head admin of Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL Wiki. See, a new Yugioh series is coming up and what better way to tell everyone about it than a Spotlight! Our wiki, the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL Wiki, follows all of the criteria and requirements for a Spotlight though there is one problem. About the Short pages, we simply have too many short pages in our wiki. Well only about 500 are actual legit short pages, and the other 500 have over 500 bytes so I do not know how the remaining 500 are Short pages when they clearly are not.

The wiki is here:http://yugiohzexal.wikia.com/wiki/Yu-Gi-Oh!_ZEXAL_Wiki.

Adele Wiki (approved)
Hi, I am the head administrator on the Adele Wiki (http://adele.wikia.com) as well as the creator of the wiki. We have 204 articles, and while some of them could be considered stubs due to the lack of information, I could've swore I read that if all the information you can possibly find on the topic is in the article, it's a stub, even if it's short. Assuming it is, we're in the process of trying to expand some of the articles, but there isn't a lot of expansion possible because of the limited information we can find on a lot of the articles. Anyways, though, we have 3 administrators (we had 4 but were forced to remove one's rights, as it had been months since she edited), we have our own custom skin, we don't use offensive language (you may see an occasional swear word in lyrics or in a quote said by Adele, as she has been known to have a potty mouth outside of her music), and to top it all off, we even have an EXCLUSIVE interview with one of her touring guitarists, Tim Van Der Kuil, which we posted on the wiki only a few months ago. Besides, now would be a great time to ask for more contributors to come to the wiki because there isn't a lot of new fresh material coming out for awhile because of her pregnancy, but we are constantly updating the fans on the wiki with the latest Adele news (specifically involving her pregnancy), It is a very friendly community and we are very welcoming, and we would love to get a spotlight to help more people come to the wiki. :) Thank you so much for your time and efforts. ---Tsu&#39;tey♫ (talk) 14:03, July 18, 2012 (UTC)

Heromania Wiki
I'm the founder of The Heromainia Wiki and I think my wiki should be put in a spotlight because in under 4 mounths it has 380 pages and I think we can only go up from there. the was created for fans who were tired of seeing DC and Marvel heroes every where so I created the wiki so their characters can be seen.Truth™ (talk) 00:09, July 24, 2012 (UTC)Truth™


 * Hello, (I am not part of staff, I just help out and look for things) You have Uncategorized Pages and they all need categories before you can request, please get add categories to the ones without. That is all that I can spot. Thanks :) -- Evanf  (Talk) 22:12, July 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. That's a fun idea for a wiki and it looks like you've made a great start on it.  For the spotlight could you please add some links to your main content categories on the main page, and then lower the protection level to only stop editing by anonymous users and new accounts?  You also have some uncategorized pagees that need to be sorted out as noted by Evanf.

Harry Potter Fanfic Wiki
I'm the founder of Harry Potter Fanfic and would like to request a spotlight for my wiki. I'm pretty sure that it covers the criteria. It's a small and relatively unknown site. There are very few active users and so we've had to work very had to reach 200 pages. I would like this spotlight in the hope of gaining some publicity and new users. I would greatly appreciate it if you considered my wiki for a spotlight position. It does not do to dwell on dreams  and forget to live  11:09, July 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi there, (I am not staff I just help out to see if there is anything) Well, you have 1 uncategorized page, you may need to fix that, and someone deleted the category for Article stubs. Well, that seems the only thing that I could spot. Thanks :) -- Evanf  (Talk) 22:17, July 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. Harry Potter Fanfic Wiki is in pretty good shape, and congratulations on reaching 200 pages!  You do have about 12 pages that are "stub length" or shorter than 300 bytes -- you would need to work on strengthening those so you have 200 non-stub pages.  Please let me know on my wall when you have expanded those pages!  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:19, August 8, 2012 (UTC)

Cheevo Archive Wiki Re-request (approved)
Quote: Play the latest bestselling game on Wikia's first Minecraft server, CheevoCraft!

Cheevo Archive Wiki is re-applying for spotlight due to the New Minecraft and Teamspeak servers we now have. Cheevo Archive Wiki is hoping to regain Spotlight priveleges in order to make the Minecraft Server and Teamspeak a Wikia-wide project.

The server is still in Beta and we have the Server's rules and IP Addresses published on our Wiki. Currently the server is named CheevoCraft, and we are hoping that this can be put into spotlight or to become a joint project with Wikia.

We hope to hear from the Spotlight Team, Merrystar, and/or Wendy!

Thanks,

 * Hi there, (I am not staff but I help out on spotlights) You have 9 uncategorized pages, you need to fix that, and the stub count is good (2 stubs). It looks as all you need to fix is the uncategorized pages, and you can rerequest it (or say you have categorized all of them) Thanks! -- Evanf  (Talk) 22:20, July 27, 2012 (UTC)

I would like to make a request to add this wiki to a spotlight since The Wolverine is now filming.

 * Hi. The wiki looks great and it has grown nicely! In order to meet the spotlight criteria some of those new pages would need to be fleshed out a bit; right now you have about 180 stub-length pages (shorter than 300 bytes), and it would need to be no more than 1/5th of the total content, or 120.

Hi again. I would like to make a request that Ghostbusters Wiki be Spotlighted sometime during October.

However, if they have other ideas for a image, I see no problem with it. Thanks for your time. Devilmanozzy (Talk Page)  11:33, July 31, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. The wiki looks great and I've added it to the approved spotlight list.  The spotlight will go up in a week or two; but you can ask for a second one in October if you wish.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:19, August 16, 2012 (UTC)

 * Thanks for letting me know you do want the spotlight. Redapedia is in good shape generally and just needs a few tweaks to meet the spotlight criteria.  Could you add some content links on the main page? Right now you have links to "featured" stuff, but it would be nice to have links to major categories (like cards, characters, etc.).  While you are at it, perhaps you could update the poll? It says it is the October poll and is dated February, but by any standards it makes the wiki look like nobody is there very often...  Similarly, could you please update the community corner, which talks about things that "will happen soon" in summer 2011?  Finally you have just a few uncategorized pages that need to be sorted out.  Let me know on my wall when you have touched up these things and I'll be happy to spotlight the wiki.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:24, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

Pockie Ninja Wikia
Hi- were are a Wikia that has been active for a while, but we don't have so many users. I have tried to get a bit of publicity for us, but to no avail. I would appreciate if we managed to get a Spotlight on the Wikia, or at least get some pointers that really would give us a push towards the Spotlight!

www.pockieninja.wikia.com

Thanks!

14:40,8/10/2012 14:40, August 10, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. Pockie Ninja Wiki looks good in general.  It does need a few tweaks to reach the spotlight criteria.  The main page edit protection would need to be dropped back to only protect against anonymous/new users.  Also there are about 50 uncategorized pages that need to be sorted out.  Finally, there are about 60 pages that are stub-length (shorter than 300 bytes) right now; in order to be spotlighted you would need 200 non-stub pages, so only 35 pages can be that short.  Please let me know when you have had a chance to sort out the main page and categories, and expand some articles, and I will check again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:49, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

 * I Don't Want To Be Rude But You Skipped My Request.

Jacob Wiggle 06:33, August 18, 2012 (UTC)


 * This request was initially made on August 12th, as can be clearly seen in the page edit history. I did not skip the request; it will be answered in order with the rest of the requests on this page. Do not try to tamper with the date or placement again or I will deny the request altogether.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 05:29, August 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * For the sake of speeding things along, I'll say now, it doesn't qualify. So long as there's even one uncategorized page, it's no-go, but more than that is the number of short pages. There are well over 800 pages on there that are less than 300 bytes and that's no-go - it has to be 20% or less of the wiki and with that number you're sitting at more like 35%. On a side-note, that color scheme of bright green on bright yellow is especially hard on the eyes. ProfessorTofty (talk) 02:13, August 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * I Fixed All That Up. I Hope It Gets Accepeted! =D

Jacob Wiggle 04:07, August 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * You fixed up the color scheme, but you still have uncategorized pages and you're still sitting at over 800 pages of 300 bytes or less. ProfessorTofty (talk) 20:43, August 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm Trying To Fix The Uncategorized Problem, But People Keep On Adding Pages Without Pages. Jacob Wiggle 03:14, August 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. It looks like you've taken care of most of the uncategorized pages -- great job! However, you do still have over 800 stub-length pages (shorter than 300 bytes); you would need no more than 560 to meet the spotlight criteria of less than 1/5th of the pages being stub-length.  Please let me know when you have strengthened the content so you have 560 or fewer stub-length pages and I will check again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:00, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

Robotech Saga Wiki (approved)
Hi, I'm an admin at Robotech Saga wiki. We're a surprisingly complete wiki that we would love to promote. We have over 600 pages and all of our pages are categorised. We have a loving admin staff that's ready to bring anyone in. We would love a spotlight, perhaps themed after the Robtoech: Love Live Alive project. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 02:22, August 13, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. Robotech is in great shape for the most part but would need a couple of tweaks to meet the spotlight criteria. Could you please spruce up the mainpage? It has a lot of "starter" info but it would be great if it had more images and some links to the main content on the wiki (eg. a character portal).  Also you have 260 pages in your stub category; there should be no more than about 130 pages marked as stubs on the wiki.  Can you please clean that category out a bit?  Let me know on my wall when you have had a chance to work on this and I'll check again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:07, August 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for taking care of those things. I've added the wiki to the approved spotlight list! -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:37, August 24, 2012 (UTC)

Monsuno Wiki (approved)
I'd like to suggest the Monsuno Wiki for a Spotlight. We meet all the article criteria, aren't having upsets in adminship, and our main page is unprotected. http://monsuno.wikia.com/wiki/Special:WikiActivity

If possible, could the Spotlight mention the finale of Season 1 and/or the beginning of Season 2 (preferably)? the ongoing "Underground World Tourney", something based off Fallout Wiki's The Pitt?

Roblox Wiki
Hey Staff,

Six months ago I applied for Roblox Wiki to get a spotlight. The spotlight was approved, and traffic increased by almost 5,000 views a day for the months of March, April, May, and June. The traffic has decreased somewhat, but the wiki is still quite popular for the Roblox community and Roblox forumers! Our number of pages has increased from 1350 to 2050 pages since February 2012. We now have five adminstrators, with three that are active daily and one that is active on weekends, which helps moderate the wiki.

We have a list of rules here

It'd be nice if we could reapply for our spotlight! Please mention the date the spotlight will run from if our spotlight request is accepted. If the spotlight runs in October''', please make it Halloween themed! '''


 * Roblox Halloween images can be found easily on google.

Thanks guys for doing an awesome job last time with out spotlight!

 * Hi. I'm glad to hear you had such a great boost from your first spotlight! There are a few cleanups needed so the wiki can be spotlighted again.  First, I'm not really seeing links to the important content on the main page or even in the wiki navigation menus.  Could you add some portal style links to major content types (eg. groups, users, hats... whatever) on the main page so new users can find that sort of basic information?  You also have some uncategorized pages that need to be sorted out.  Let me know on my wall when you have taken care of these issues and I will check back again.  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:24, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

Super Smash Bros Fanfiction Wiki
Hello, I am Icewish, an admin of Super Smash Bros Fanfiction Wiki. We are a new and very small wiki with only 82 pages. I know that the requirement for a wiki spotlight is 200 pages, but we are lacking active users to create pages, and a spotlight will be just the thing to introduce new users to the wiki. I have not seen another Super Smash fanon wiki out there yet, but it is very hard to advertise our wiki because of this.

Here is the info that was requested on the Spotlight page:
 * I, Icewish, am an active admin and most likely the most active user on the wiki.
 * 1) We have only 82 pages as stated earlier, but only two stub pages.
 * 2) There is a picture on the front page of the wiki, and there is a link to my user page if a user needs to contact me. There is also a link to the Rules page for the wiki.
 * 3) All of our pages have the correct categories, with an exception of maybe one or two pages.
 * 4) We are not in the middle or choosing new admins or anything of the sort.
 * 5) We are using the wiki welcome tool.
 * 6) We do have a community message with the latest updates about the wiki.
 * 7) Our wiki skin was provided by the Theme Designer, so I'm not sure if that counts as a customized wiki skin. If it is not, please notify me and I will change it.
 * 8) There is no offensive language anywhere on the wiki.

 * I think you will find if you examine the records of past posts that they are very firm on the 200 article requirement. Your best bet would be to try to grow the wiki yourself and come back once you have at least 200. ProfessorTofty (talk) 04:53, August 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay then. It's just that I thought that is was allowed to have less than 200 pages because I saw a spotlight for a wiki with only about 75 pages.


 * -Icewish


 * Sometimes wikis will be chosen for a sort of spotlight thing at staff discretion based on a topic considered interesting or if there's an upcoming movie coming out related to the wiki or something like that, but that's completely separate of this process. ProfessorTofty (talk) 16:04, August 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. ProfessorTofty is correct. Wikis requesting a spotlight through this page need to have 200 non-stub content pages.  Most of the spotlights are chosen by the staff (not requested) so they do not have to meet the criteria, which is why sometimes the wikis are smaller.  Good luck building your wiki, and please do ask again when you have had a chance to do so!  -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:27, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

Magi Wiki (approved)
Hi, I'm the admin/bureaucrat of Magi Wiki, and I want a spotlight for it as it has an anime coming out in October. Since I don't know how long it takes to get approved, I'm requesting early. It has 236 pages.

 * Hi. Magi Wiki looks good and I'd be happy to approve it for a spotlight.  Do you want me to put it in for a spotlight now? Or in October?  After I add it to the approved list it should only take 1-2 weeks for the spotlight to go up. Let me know on my wall what you want to do. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:50, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

Eternal Sonata Wiki (approved)
Hi, I'm currently the sole admin/bureaucrat for the Eternal Sonata Wiki and I would like to request a spotlight for it. It meets all of the requirements described; it should be good to go. If you could use either of the included images, that would be great! ProfessorTofty (talk) 04:52, August 19, 2012 (UTC)




 * Hi. Eternal Sonata Wiki looks great and I have added it to the approved spotlight list. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy  (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:54, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

Seekers Wiki (approved)
Hello, I'm Mistey, an active admin on Seekers Wiki. We haven't had a spotlight before, but we have worked on categorizing and adding new pages to our Wiki. We currently have 217 pages, with more on the way when the next books come out. New editors would really help our wiki. Thank you!

The Amazing World of Gumball Wiki
Hello, I am here requesting a Spotlight for The Amazing World Of Gumball wiki. I am not an Admin, but am a rollback, and have a link to a discussion about it: link

We are a wiki dedicated to Cartoon Network's show, The Amazing World of Gumball!

Ratchet & Clank wiki
I'm a bureaucrat on the Ratchet & Clank wiki. I believe we meet the criteria for a spotlight. We're a fairly active wiki with a couple of other active admins aside from myself. We've just recently passed the 5,000 article milestone and with a new game out soon I think this would be a good time for the spotlight. --Hunterj | My talk 16:11, August 27, 2012 (UTC)

Tardis
Heya :) Our last spotlight at w:c:tardis was about 15 months ago, so we thought we'd apply for another one, since the new series of Doctor Who is about to launch.  Here's a recommended image, along with caption:



Pretty sure we still qualify for a spotlight. We do have a few uncategorized pages, but these are either not in the main namespace, or are the result of the cache not clearing properly. (As an aside, I have no clue what's up with tardis:1992, tardis:1995 and tardis:1997. These pages are automatically categorized by template, and they shouldn't be on this list. But they persistently are, and I don't know how to make the Special page recognize the cats that are actually present.)  — CzechOut 18:34, August 27, 2012 (UTC)
