Any other information: No administrator has edited on this wiki for a few months already. As I feel said wiki needs a revamp, due to lots of copy-pasted content from Wikipedia, I have been trying my best to edit it as far as possible so that I can fix it up and make it look presentable. I have had years of experience as a bureaucrat, so I can try and help spruce the wiki up as far as I can. (this includes the creation of new pages) Besides, I have adopted a wiki before, and am routinely editing it. * - At the time of writing 12:59, May 2, 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi. Keep up your editing as you are now, (contributing good edits everyday or two) to the Wiki. Also, make sure to create at least one article page if you haven't already (more the better). Otherwise, you are doing good, just keep editing. Ripto (talk) 17:53, May 2, 2015 (UTC)


 * UPDATE: Apparently, Smoke. edited for the first time in maybe 3 months. But, I don't think he might be editing any more after this, so I'll just keep trying to adopt the wiki.


 * Yikes, sorry to see that. Yeah, sadly since he made that edit, I don't think you can adopt the Wiki, but you can always try asking Smoke if you can gain rights since you are doing good for the Wiki. Ripto (talk) 20:37, May 6, 2015 (UTC)
 * Eesh, Ripto. Smoke., while a bureaucrat and poweruser, has not seemed to have promoted anyone, since he seems to only edit once every few months now.


 * They aren't required to make any other users admins/bureaucrat if they don't want to, and if they are active on the Wiki. Active, just means, they've made an edit there recently. They don't have to be making heavy edits everyday to protect their position. Have you tried approaching them about becoming an admin? If you're contributing good edits, then asking kindly would be great. But it is no promise he will do it. Staff can't just look at this and give you rights because the bureaucrat is not as active as you are. You can see what they say when they see this, but I would recommend to ask the bureaucrat if you haven't already, or wait until he eats up the 60 day limit. Ripto (talk) 22:21, May 6, 2015 (UTC)
