This page is where you can request administrator and/or bureaucrat rights on communities without an active admin and/or bureaucrat team. Before you post your request, please make sure you are active on the wiki and that you meet the guidelines listed below.
Following a successful adoption, you will receive administrator rights for 30 days. After this period, please reapply for permanent administrator and bureaucrat user rights with the "extend permissions" forum. A Wiki Representative will review your request, which will be determined based on activity and rights usage.
Please allow up to one week (7 business days) for a response to your adoption request. Requests are generally — but not always — reviewed in the order they were received.
We look forward to having you adopt one of our communities!

LGBT Info (on hold)
Hi, I would like to request the status of bureaucrat for the LGBT Info wiki (as per DragonMage), as I would like to be able to appoint new administrators and do my best to encourage more editor activity on the wiki. I and a few other editors have been the most frequent visitors to (let alone editors for) the wiki, and the administrator who gave me sysop rights has not edited or visited the wiki since 2008. Thanks, RayneVanDunem 22:14, March 3, 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, please can you confirm this with the other active admin first. I can give the extra rights to either or both of you, but would like you to discuss which first. Thanks -- sannse (talk) 23:22, March 5, 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, the bureaucrat who gave me an adminship hasn't edited the wiki since 2008, and none of the other bureaucrats have edited within the last three years. I tried emailing the bureaucrat who gave me adminship regarding a bureaucrat position, but I haven't heard anything from him, and I assume that he and the other bureaucrats are out of communicable reach for the long term. I'm not sure if, by discussing the matter with other active admin, you mean EarthFurst, who is the only other active sysop beside myself but is also not a bureaucrat. 05:35, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, we would like to see some agreement between you and EarthFurst but also community support. LGBT Wiki has a fairly active community. Perhaps you could start a forum post/page/Site notice to gather support. --daNASCAT 15:27, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
Diary Of A Wimpy Kid Wiki (on hold)
This wiki has not been inactive for 60 days, but the current admin has 0 edits and the wiki is full of spam. I have made a couple of edits on the wiki, including making a logo for the Wiki. Please consider me! -There is only One Saturday Morning a week and I'd like to spend it with Doug Funnie, T.J. Detweiler, Pepper Ann, Phineas Flynn, Perry The Platypus, and Jellyroll. But I can't. My name is Planty 03:20, March 13, 2010 (UTC)
- Can you please add a link to the wiki please? Thanks, Sarah (talk 21:13, March 15, 2010 (UTC)

- Actually, there is no admin -There is only One Saturday Morning a week and I'd like to spend it with Doug Funnie, T.J. Detweiler, Pepper Ann, Phineas Flynn, Perry The Platypus, and Jellyroll. But I can't. My name is Planty 21:27, March 17, 2010 (UTC)
- Planty, there is quite an active community over at that Wiki. Could you find some way (create a poll, a forum topic, etc.,) and gain some community support for your adoption of the wiki? --daNASCAT 15:36, March 19, 2010 (UTC)
LOST Wikia (on hold)
I would like to adopt the LOST Wikia. The Admins and Bureaucrats aren't online on this Wikia. I have a high knowledge of LOST and much edits on this Wiki then other users. Also I have created an article that should already being deleted. So could I being an Administrator on this Wikia, LOST Wikia. I have ask it to an Admin, but he didn't reacted since a long time. He isn't there since 24 February 2010. The Other Admins have left the Wikia around 2008 and 2009. Look at the page Administrators page. --Station7 14:40, March 18, 2010 (UTC)
Could I please adopt this Wiki? Or do I have to wait longer? I don't know.--Station7 15:57, March 23, 2010 (UTC)
Adoption requests can take several days to be accepted. It matters on how busy the staff is. -BluethunderContact 21:43, March 23, 2010 (UTC)
OK, I always thought that it was 2 days waiting. I need to calm down.--Station7 21:59, March 23, 2010 (UTC)
Also I have to report that there is many vandalism. Without an Administrator, nobody can't block him. I just removed it, but I'm sure he will come back. An unregistred person, just did it to it's revision, but that can't stop nobody. This Wiki needs an new Admin, I'm really sure. Also the last there are more people who leave Lostpedia, so this could also mean that User:GentleBen on Lost Wikia gived it up.--Station7 21:16, March 25, 2010 (UTC)
The last thing I want to said for now is that there are only minor editors. They have 5/10 edits. My knowledge of the show, could helping this Wiki very far, since the Admin is non-active.--Station7 22:17, March 25, 2010 (UTC)
- I've noticed that while the bureaucrat has not edited for a while, they have logged in from time to time. I would suggest getting in contact with them (using the EmailUser function) to see if they are willing to let you become the bureaucrat. In the interim, I have approved you as Admin. --daNASCAT 15:25, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
Zero no Tsukaima (on hold)
I would like to adopt Zero_no_Tsukaima. It looks like a place holder only. No editing available. I would like set up tree with characters and story/chapters. Nothing has been worked on for a year. I have watch the 3 Set of anime and gone over some of the Manga scan of the books. —This unsigned comment is by Rocketmanwikia (talk • contribs) 16:50, March 20, 2010 (UTC).

Nanovor Wiki (accepted)
I would like to adopt the nanovor wikia. I have the top edits, contribute to the cumminity (Or atleast what comunity there is), and the others treat me as a leader. There is becomeing confusions where the other users believe that I am the beaurocrat and are asking me to delete stuff. I would like to adopt the wiki as the admin, Sannse, said herself that she is just a passing staffer. Heres the link: WWW.Nanovor.Wikia.Com

Gilligan's Island Wiki (accepted)
Hello,
I recently discovered a wiki for the popular show Gilligan's Island, but sadly it seems as though it has been inactive for years. The wiki is located here. It's extremely outdated and lacking in every department. I have lots of experience on the Counter-Strike Wiki, having been a sysop for 3 years, and between the two, I could easily balance my time and help both grow into better wikis. I haven't contributed much to the Gilligan's Island Wiki yet, having just discovered it, but I'm going to continue to contribute, and having administrator/bureaucratic rights would help with my cause. Thanks, --StrikerBack 02:35, March 21, 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for getting involved there. I have given you admin rights. Enjoy, Sarah (talk 21:23, March 22, 2010 (UTC)
(Nazi) Zombies Wiki (Approved)
Sorry, about the title, it won't show up the "Nazi" part. So, I would like to request for the status of Sysop and Bureaucrat for the Nazi Zombies Wiki . I would like to do this because I would like to be able to appoint new administrators, encourage activity at the wiki and generally enhance the wiki as much as I can. There is only one active administrator at the wiki. That administrator last edited on 5th March, 2009. Thank you. Doc.Richtofen 17:58, March 21, 2010 (UTC)
Shining Time Station Wiki (Approved)
I'd like to adopt the Shining Time Station Wiki. The admin there, Danielchance, has not been there in a very long time. For credentials: I'm an admin on the Thomasthe Tank Engine Wiki, the VeggieTales Wiki, and the Sooty Database Wiki. ThomasfanPeep! Peep! 17:03, March 23, 2010 (UTC)

Dead Rising Wiki (Bureaucrat Flag) (Approved)
Hi =] last month you gave me admin rights to the Dead Rising wiki [1] and since then the place is looking a lot better, but I'd like to request a bureaucrat flag so that if I need to I can promote people.. I already have one user in mind (he's like the only one who has consistently edited asides from me [2]) and I think he at the very least deserves to be a moderator. thanks. - Ash Crimson 21:39, March 23, 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, you should have the bureaucrat flag. I apologize - we were supposed to give it to you but it looks like only admin was given. You should now be bureaucrat. --daNASCAT 15:13, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you =] - Ash Crimson 17:33, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Russian Trek-wiki (accepted)
Dear all, may I become a Bureaucrat of the Russian Star Trek wiki? Our previous BCs and admins have been unactive for some years. We are trying to build a Memory Alpha community in our club (Russian ST Fan Club), archivists are working hard and we really need somebody to coordinate the whole process.

Kuroshitsuji Wikia Request (accepted)
Hello, since I see that | Kuroshitsuji Wiki has currently no admins, I find that I want to take the admins' place and get the wiki updated (if I may).

I'm a certain person when it comes to Python. I'd like to put this on hold first: I created 2 Answers sites and a Subversion Wiki this month. I'll wait until May (when I can get the projects working) and be an admin. I'll post on people's talk pages to see if they are interested.
Since this wiki has no admin (or there is one but he's abandoned the project), I would like to adopt it.

LGBT wikia (ru) (denied)
Hello, I'm interested in adopting the http://ru.lgbt.wikia.com. This project is inactive for a long time, and only vandals are active. I'm started to work in this project, but I can't to edit pages because they all protected. Please to give me the rights of bureaucrat and admin in this project.

Golf wiki (Approved)
I would like to adopt Golf wiki. There are two bureaucrats: one of them hasn't made a single edit to this wiki, and the other hasn't contributed to golf wiki since 2007 (see here). I left a message on his talk page (see here), just in case, but I don't think he will answer. As you can see, in 2007 he had already been warned that his wiki would be put up for adoption and he didn't answer. I have started editing, but there are some files I would like to delete. Also, aside from the message to the bureaucrat, I left a note on the forum for everyone to see, if there is anyone around. I know I only started editing a couple of days ago, but I would like you to consider it. If I can't be made bureaucrat, could a staff member, or a helper, check this category out every once in a while, and delete anything that's there? Thank you, --Just Me 21:57, March 29, 2010 (UTC)
- Your request for adoption has been approved. Good luck with the wiki! --daNASCAT 15:20, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
The Quest Wiki (accepted)
I'd like to become Bureaucrat and Admin for The Quest wiki.
http://thequest.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page
Reasons
- I am the ONLY active member in 9 months
- The last edit (previous to mine) was performed June 2009.
- The wiki is by no means complete. A skeleton of the areas was made, but no details, quests, spells, item, enemies, strategies, classes were created
- I have created over 70 pages already and will probably end up making another 70-150 pages just to cover the bare minimum information
- The wiki doesn't turn up in any related google search, so I'm planning on improving keyword density and references to get the site higher in google searches.
- The wiki needs skinning

Lexicon Wiki (on hold)
Hi there. I'd like to adopt Lexicon Wiki. Its sysop is User:Shehee whose last edit was done in September 2008. The wiki itself is clean as a whistle. I haven't made an edit there, but I was planning to run a Lexicon game anyway and was considering different wiki platforms for that (wikidot, pbworks, wikia, etc), and since it is apparently possible to do on Wikia, I'd like to stick to that. As credentials I can say that I'm a sysop on D&D Wiki since December 2006 (currently slowly merging with Dungeons Wiki) and a sysop on Russian RPG Wikia since June 2007 (currently prospering with ~700 articles). The rules of Lexicon RPG have also been translated by yours truly and made available via a wiki page. Please also make me a bureaucrat there, I might need to delegate the administration functions to those who will also want to run their Lexicon game within the same wiki. Thanks in advance. --Radaghast 21:13, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

Halo: Reach Wiki
Hello! I'd like to request an adoption for the Halo: Reach Wiki. There has been no activity for months on end (except for my recent contributions.) There is no active admin team or anyone I can discuss this situation with. A highly-anticipated game deserves a good wiki! I have been a Halo fanboy ever since it first came out, so I would be very responsible with this wiki. There are only three articles on the wiki (one that is a sentence long, one that I made, and the main page.) I just want to see it grow (or make it grow!)

Ok great. If you decide you still want to contribute to the Halo Reach wiki, let us know here again. Best, Sarah (talk 22:58, April 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I'd like to request to be a bureaucrat on the Chzo Mythos Wiki. The wiki's only active users are my friends, Xykeb Zraliv and Auronkaizer, who are interested game series and are admins on Zeldapedia. I'd like to be able to promote them to the admin or bureaucrat status. I'm sorry for changing the request so much. I don't think there are any active admins.
Thanks!

I would like to request to adopt the Battlestar Galactica Wiki, which is in serious need of overhaul.

Hello, I am interested in applying for admin/bureaucrat rights for the Walkthrough Wiki. I have been editing pages there and have created two articles [6] [7].

I am not asking for admin rights since I adopted a wiki not too long ago; but I believe my son is the perfect candidate to serve as admin. I am a well experienced Wikian (my edits), also a Wikianswers Manager, and have been teaching my son many things about creating wikis! So please do consider his application, I will do my best to team up with him to fill the Walkthrough Wiki with many gaming walkthroughs! :) --Liliana (my talk). 02:59, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Wikia. I am interested in adopting Basketball Wiki. I have made many edits and created tons of pages on there.

Maximum Ride Wiki Request
Hello, I am Pbre and I am requesting for Adminship of the Maximum Ride Wiki. Although I am a new user of that Wiki, I am an active user on many other wikis and have the second most edits on the wiki, the first being the creator.( Because they had to make all of the pages) Plus the Admin hasn't been on in days and hasn't made an edit on the wiki since October 25th, 2009. There are officially 5 users (Wikia itself being one of the 5) that have over 10 edits. I of course am one of those 5, so is the Admin and 2 other users who have not been on/ have not editted on the Wiki in a significant amount of time. To see this for yourself, follow this: http://maximumride.wikia.com/wiki/Special:ListUsers . Obviously my name is not there because it does not show the person who is looking at it and that is my link. I am not sure if it will come up on your end, but you can also check my userpage: http://maximumride.wikia.com/wiki/User:Pbre to see how many edits I have.
I am requesting for adminship of this Wiki because I love the books and I believe that the wiki should be active, which it is not. I promise that if I am admin I will make the wiki active and popular.
Thank you for your time,
Pbre 01:25, April 4, 2010 (UTC)
