After just resolving problems with a false positive spam block, I quickly get hit again after around 10 edits with a "read-only mode" applied after an edit. In these moments I am also forcibly logged out on some pages. Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Just Updated
We have a small chain of Wikis, one for official content and one for OCs.
There was one user who was banned from the OC Wiki for serious sexual harassment, racism, manipulation, etc. This user is still on the Official Wiki as he hasn’t had an opportunity to harass anyone there.
As you could probably figure, most of the users overlap. But we learned the hard way that the Banned User could still look at all of our posts, including clicking on links and joining things like Zoom meetings, Discord servers, and other games. He should not be able to do this. It honestly scares many of us. Especially as he can still contact us through the other Wiki and outside methods.
Please fix this, fandom.
TLDR: creepy banned user can still harass users due to being able to read all of our posts.
I created a wiki for a personal project a while ago for reference to use as I created my story. I even have the page bookmarked in my browser, but even if I use that URL I can't get to the page because it says its "Not a valid community". I even tried searching for it in the Community logs to see if it had been deleted, but there's just nothing. I know I should have made a back up for the content on the page now, but I don't have that content anywhere else and it was a lot.
I don't know what's going on, but I really need access to the page and this is my last resort because nothing else is working.
Long story short, someone posted an image in Discussions which said something bad. I blocked them, and they argued that someone had edited the image they had posted in Discussions (i.e. like how people can change the actual image a file name points to). From what I can tell, this doesn't seem to be possible. Is it? If so, how do I check who edited the file?
I feel like doing it, even though no one would probably let me. For example, I found a post on the Nintendo Switch wiki which is an abandoned wiki (I think) Nobody has deleted the post and it's just FULL of swear words and if I was a global thread moderator, I would delete it right away. How can I become a global thread mod?
Hi. I haven't been around for a while, at least 3 to 4 months now. I am in the final stages of shutting my account with Fandom, and finishing most of my work elsewhere, so I can concentrate on getting well. I have cancer, and although I'm getting better slowly, over an extended period of time, it's kicking my butt out of the park.
I'm barely keeping up with only one website, and the one I admin/crat on, BabyTV wiki, currently has no active admins or staff. I paid one final visit to there tonight, to let the crew know I won't be back, kicked a sockpuppet off the site, and said my farewells to them.
What I'm now doing is preparing to put the Baby TV wiki up for adoption by anyone who wants it. I can find out how to adopt wikis, but I can't find anywhere which gives the process for putting the wiki out to requests.
Can anyone please tell me how to do this, or point me at a page where I can get this underway? Once it's done, I'll be deactivating my account permanently. It's been fun, but right now, I have to come first and not have things weighing on my mind.
Thank you for everything you guys have done - you've been brilliant. I may come back one day, who knows? :)

Please add tabs, Because I can't add and it is struggling.
I'll let someone else
Hi,
There are two wikis, one of which is dead, and hasn't been edited for nearly two years, about a retired video game in a series, and one very much alive (even if I'm the only active editor) and about the rest of the series. The continued existence of the dead one might be detrimental to the SEO of the alive one, as they both have the same name and almost identical urls, so I'd like to merge the dead one into the alive one. I left messages on the dead one quite some time ago, but got no reply. According to Help:Merging communities, I can simply go ahead and copy content over.
My question is this: just like that? Do I have to inform Fandom or something? Also, the wikis have pages that have the same title, though are about different things. Is there a way to import them at different titles? Or will I have to temporarily move pages on the alive wiki to make way for importing from the dead one? (yes, I'm an admin on the alive one)
The wikis in question are:
https://dungeonkeeper.fandom.com/wiki/Dungeon_Keeper_Wiki (alive)
https://dungeon-keeper.fandom.com/wiki/Dungeon_Keeper_Wiki (dead)
Thanks.
Hello! I'm the bureaucrat for this wiki here, though recently we've run into the issue of it potentially being a duplicate of an existing wiki. I was wondering if there was a way to change the site name, or if we need to create an entirely new wiki.
We're looking to rebrand it to a wiki purely for robot ocs in general, rather than just Murder Drones.
Is it possible so that only Content Mods and above can create pages?
I'm a moderator for the Project SEKAI Wiki - a page titled "Служебная:ConfirmEmail" occasionally gets created on our English wiki for some reason (https://projectsekai.fandom.com/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%BB%D1%83%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%B1%D0%BD%D0%B0%D1%8F:ConfirmEmail ).
For some context, our wiki does have an active Russian interwiki.
How and why does this page show up on our English wiki, and how can I prevent the page from continually being created?
I did consider protecting the page so that only our Wiki staff can edit it, but I wanted to ask here first.
I went to the Palia Wiki, and there is only ome Administrator there. However, he had not been active in a while as far as I could tell, and he has not respp ded to me or anyone else who has messaged him.
I have a question that someone may know, is it possible that you can get a bureaucrat removed (If you are another bureaucrat) by going through fandom support with emails for inactivity and other reasons around that?
How do I make an abuse filter which will autoblock anyone with UltimateSkyline or Skyline in their username to combat a recent mass raider on the Jailbreak Wiki?
I'm anticipating a possible merge of two wikis of which I'm an admin:
And
Is there a simple way to do this en masse, or will we need to download the content from The Rookie: Feds wiki and re-upload it to The Rookie wiki?
How do I created a new wiki?
I wanted to created my own wiki for danger force because I wanted to know how to created it.
Hi. I'm currently concerned and worried about my two wikis being closed by Fandom due to inactivity for a prolonged time period. I would like some advice from professionals on how I can keep NickDisToonSint Wiki and HanSoto and Psyonics Wiki open and active again.
I have you know that World in the Universe Wiki is also one of my wikis that has been prolonged inactive and would like to keep that one open.
It's just that I made a lot of wikis today and I mostly do things on Blanding Cassatt Encyclopedia, Sintopia Wiki, and Cree Wiki, and a little things on HispaniolaNewGuinea Wiki. I have other editors on Intertropolis & Routeville Wiki, so I don't have to worry about that going down.
