Adoption requests Total Miner Wiki

What is your username? Derfen Steve

Please link to the wiki here: http://totalminer.wikia.com/wiki/Total_Miner_Wiki

How many edits have you made on that wiki? 23 EDITS (I simply am an overseer for the owner and creator of total miner, Craig. I believe the wiki should be a community effort and we will start to channel our community into the wiki after I have the ability to overhaul the front page for our wiki) Our community tester "Clerical" will handle most of the operations, Although I ask that I can keep watch over it So that it may not fall into such a disgrace again.

How many days/months have you been editing there? JOINED THIS WIKIDECEMBER 7, 2014

On the Special Pages → Special:ListAdmins when was the last time an admin edited, and who was it? 23:53, October 17, 2016 - Odin Aumar (Odin Aumar is a member of our community, It is alright if he is an admin due to his high activity on the wiki)

10:13, August 2, 2016 - Clerical (Clerical is one of our most trusted game testers and holds a high level position in our community, It would be alright to promote him to bureaucrat)

Any other information: Here is the message I've sent the current inactive Bureaucrats, =======================================

Do you still have any control over the "TotalMiner" wikia? It seems to be somewhat neglected, I'm from the Total Miner discord Admin team and work closely with Craig our Dev and Creator of TM. I was looking to work on getting the wiki back in shape/active in anticipation for our PC release.If you are interested in giving us some overhaul control, Clerical And I can fix up the place, I've noticed he already was promoted to admin, although I would need full permissions/control if our team were to plan on devoting serious time into this.Seems like all the people with authority to overhaul have left. If you are not interested we may be better off starting a new wiki for our game because as it is now It's pretty outdated.If you have any questions feel free to message me on discord,

Thanks, Steve

My Request:

I'd like you to remove ALL Bureaucrats and Admins, instate myself as the first, then re-add Clerical as a second Bureaucrat and add Odin Aumar as an Admin. We are gearing up to release our game on Steam PC, and I would hate for players to come across a wiki that is completely outdated and does not reflect our game, Its truly a shame, the state the admins have left it in, we want to fix it up before our pc release. I personally probably will not be making many edits as I have other functions to attend to, however if Craig and I have control over the wiki for the game we can rework the framework correctly and then start sending our community members to bring the place alive again.

Attached are 9 files showing what I mean, these guys have been hopping on once a year just to talk to their old buddies, while there are countless of messages asking them when things are going to be updated. As you can imagine its slightly frustrating for us.

If we cannot gain full control in order to update it we may be better off starting a new wiki for our game because as it is now It's pretty outdated/shameful. Although I hate to do that as there is already a great a base to start with, We hope you will help us work though this problem.

Thanks, Steve

Total Miner Discord Administrator, Contributor,

Unofficial response (Please wait for an official response by Fandom Staff):

Adopting a wiki requires editing wiki consistently for atleast a week and create atleast one content page, so if you start editing wiki everyday from now till staff reviews this adoption and create a new content page on wiki you might be eligible for adoption. And Fandom staff won't be contacting through discord you should be available for discussing here on wiki. Minato826__(Talk to ANOOP)@Wiki-Markup Wiki 00:39, January 14, 2017 (UTC)


Hello Steve. The wiki can be adopted but Minato is correct; you would first need to be actively editing there. Let me know on my wall after you have edited the wiki regularly, every day or two for about a week and I will be happy to give you the rights there.
In the meanwhile, I've unprotected the pages so you should be able to work on whatever you like; in addition, Clerical already has admin rights and can make any interface/appearance changes you want.
The adoption process will remove the rights of any admins/bureacrats who have been inactive for a year, or we can do that at the request of an admin such as Clerical through Special:Contact. In order to remove the rights of anybody who has edited in the last year we would need to see a community discussion about the demotions, and a request would need to made through Special:Contact . -- Wendy (talk 05:36, January 25, 2017 (UTC)
