Street Fighter EX Wiki[]

Hi, I would like to make a request due to your permission to add Street Fighter EX Wiki in spotlight, cause I would like too add more fans for the wiki.User_talk:Ericard 04:55, November 13, 2010 (UTC)


Info:

STREET FIGHTER EX WIKI

Participate your favourite series!

--User_talk:Ericard 09:05, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Ericard. Street Fighter EX Wiki looks really good, but in order to be spotlighted through this page, the wiki would need 200 non-stub content pages. I'm sorry I can't approve a spotlight at this time. Please ask again when you have had a chance to build the content further. -- Wendy (talk) 00:40, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

Top Gear Wiki (USA)[]

Hello I'd like Top Gear Wiki to have a spotlight because of a upcoming US series which will premire on November 21 2010. It will become a big hit on History Channel. People will be searching for Top Gear --Knightrez(Talk) 04:48, November 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Top Gear Wiki looks pretty good, but it would need a few tweaks to be spotlighted. Could you please customize the message in the Community Corner (the box on the right hand side below the Hot Spots) on the Recent Wiki Activity page? Also you have over 100 uncategorized pages that would need to be sorted out. Please let me know when you have taken care of these and I will be happy to add the wiki to the upcoming spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 00:35, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

Sym-Bionic Wiki[]

HI ITS Paifu fan23, AND I WOULD PLEASE WANT YOU TO SPOTLIGHT MY WIKI. IT WOULD MAKE ME HAPPY. I AM ALSO THE ADMIN OF THE WIKI. I ALREADY GOT THE PICTURE. MY WIKI IS VERY ORGANIZED. IT HAS SOME STUBS, BUT TELLS YOU A LOT OF INFO ABOUT THE CHARACTER. Paifu fan23 23:10, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Paifu fan. Sym-Bionic Wiki looks very good and I can see you have been working hard on it. However, in order to be spotlighted through this request page, it needs to have 200 content articles. Please ask again when you have had a chance to add more content to the wiki. -- Wendy (talk) 05:00, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Nintendo Wiki[]

Hello! I'm an admin at the Nintendo Wiki. We have developed a comprehensive Nintendo database that features over 6,500 articles. There are several active members who update the site on a regular basis, but I feel like there's a lot of potential for the site to become much bigger. We have an organized category structure and a majority of our pages are above 300 bytes. The Nintendo 3DS portable game system will release in English-speaking territories in March of 2011 and the users of the Nitnendo Wiki, myself included, plan to make an enormous database for the handheld on the site that will provide users with all the information they could ever want, and a spotlight would really benefit us.

Thanks in advance!!! -- Bentendo Talk 01:09, October 31, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Nintendo Wiki looks great and actually does meet all of the spotlight criteria except for the stub issue. While you have less than 700 pages under 300 bytes, you have thousands of pages in your stub categories -- so more than 1/5th of your articles are labeled as stubs. For a spotlight you would need to spend some time sorting out which pages really are stubs and get the total number (in all the stub categories combined) down to around 1400 pages or preferably much less. Let me know when you've had a chance to do this! -- Wendy (talk) 04:55, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

South Park Archives[]

Greetings! I am an active admin of South Park Archives, and I would like to request a spotlight. We have a few zealous editors who diligently contribute to the wiki, making it bigger and better everyday. More work can be done, but we believe its ready to be "unveiled" and be viewed by everyone.
We have achieved and exceeded each of the spotlight requirements.
Thank you for considering us.
NeocarleenTalk

Hi. The South Park Archives look great and I have added the wiki to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:52, November 17, 2010 (UTC)


Medal of Honor wiki[]

Hi there. I'd like to request a spotlight for the Medal of Honor wiki. Over there, myself, YuriKaslov (i think that's the way to spell his name) and a few other users have been working hard to prepare for the release of the new Medal of Honor game, and (not to blow our own trumpet here) i belive that our work has transformed the wiki into a fully functional database on much of the Medal of Honor series. We currently have 469 articles, of which most are above stub length. Most of our pages are categorized in some way, and we have had little need to change stuff on the wiki, and very little in the way of vandalism and trolling. Thanks for the time. - {{SUBST:Signatures/Heatedpete}} 15:24, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Medal of Honor wiki looks really great. There are a few tweaks it needs to meet the spotlight criteria. There are about 20 uncategorized pages. Also the content is a little weak at the moment; you have about 170/500 articles that are stub length (less than 300 bytes). It needs to be closer to 100/500 for the spotlight. Please let me know when you have had a chance to strengthen your content (or remove some of the stubs) and I will happily look at the wiki again. -- Wendy (talk) 03:47, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

WikIkariam[]

Hello, I am an admin of the Ikariam Wiki (WikIkariam) and I would like to submit it as an upcoming Wikia Spotlight. We currently have 433 pages (of which almost none are stubs) and we hopefully fulfil all the criteria, except for the main page being semi-protected due to history of vandalism. Ikariam is one of the most popular browser games, with over 1.500.000 players worldwide, and our wiki offers lots of guides, tips and information around the game. Currently the wiki is completely ready for the transition to Oasis, with a fully-customized brand new theme and a custom wordmark. We hope that with the wiki being spotlighted we will receive more contributors and become again a lively and great community. Thanks in advance! Ifaigios 13:04, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. WikIkariam generally looks relaly good -- your skin design and wordmark are great. There are a few issues with the design, however, which I have messaged you about on-wiki. Once these are resolved I will be happy to add you to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:30, November 17, 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for addressing the skin issues. I have added you to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:19, November 25, 2010 (UTC)

Dutch swtor wiki[]

I would like to request the Dutch Star Wars: The Old Republic wiki for an spotlight. I alreade made an image, with the size of the new skin spotlights (269x 143x).

Hi. Could you please repost this request on the International spotlights request page?? Thanks. -- Wendy (talk) 02:00, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

NCIS Wiki[]

Hello Wikia Staff Member!

I am Anniemoose98, an active admin on the NCIS Wiki, I am here to request a Spotlight.

On to the requirements...

  • The requestor should be either the admin, or link to a discussion with the admin of the wiki and agreeing to the spotlight. - Yes, I am an Admin
  • The wiki should have at least 200 content pages, not counting stubs. Stub articles should make up no more than 1/5th of all pages on the wiki. - 2,058 pages, to be exact. We try to delete all unneeded stubs
  • The main page of the wiki should have at least one picture, and clear links to the most important content. It should also be unprotected unless there is a strong history of vandalism. - 16 images on the main page.
  • The wiki should have a clear category structure to help readers navigate around the site. Every content page should be in a category. - We shouldn't have any uncategorized, if we do, they will be fixed before the spotlight goes up. We have links to every page.
  • The wiki should not be in the middle of choosing new admins, or any other upheavals; it should be a stable, friendly place. -We are very calm and peaceful
  • The wiki should be using the Wikia welcome tool, signed by admins -- (MediaWiki:Welcome-user should say @latest, @sysop or the name of an admin.) -I got welcomed with it myself.

The wiki should not use offensive language or include inappropriate images. - We are a clean wiki


Thank-You,


--Anniemoose98 23:48, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

In looking at the wiki for the request, it appears that you were made an admin only to help with the skin and have not been active in about a month. The wiki is in good shape, with the exception of a few uncategorized pages; if those are taken care of I will be happy to approve it for a spotlight. However I would need to know that User:NJZimmerman or another of the active admins are ok with this as well. Please let me know if the wiki would like the spotlight. -- Wendy (talk) 02:49, November 17, 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for getting back to me, NJZimmerman. I have added the wiki to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 00:20, November 20, 2010 (UTC)


HTML & CSS Wiki Attempt #2[]

Hi, I'm back for another go at the spotlights. I've been working hard since the last time I made a request and I hope this time I've reached or almost reached the requirements to get my wiki on a spotlight. There's only around 3 active editors right now, so it's pretty tough managing multiple tasks without bots. The wiki has grown by 100+ pages since last time. Anyways, please take a look! SSgtGriffin Htmlcss-toolbar 03:26, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure we meet all the requirements. I've reduced the stubs down to 1/6 of the total content, the main page is semi-protected, there aren't any uncategorized pages, etc. I also have the wiki spotlight image ready if you need it. SSgtGriffin Htmlcss-toolbar 01:38, October 20, 2010 (UTC)

Now only 11% of the pages are stubs, and we've increased out total pages to 531 now. I hope it's finally ready. SSgtGriffin Htmlcss-toolbar on Facebook 00:09, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

Well here's the image for the spotlight that I made. The last time I checked, the spotlight dimensions were 255 x 123px so I made it like that:

Htmlcss-spotlight-image

Oh, and please make the words this:

HTML & CSS Wiki
The ultimate HTML and CSS database

Thanks!! SSgtGriffin Htmlcss-toolbar on Facebook 19:33, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Great job strengthening your content! I have added your wiki to the approved spotlight list. I can't guarantee that they will use the words or image you supplied but will pass them along. -- Wendy (talk) 02:31, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! That won't be a problem. I'm just happy the wiki made the spotlight! SSgtGriffin Htmlcss-toolbar on Facebook 03:23, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Duel Masters Wiki[]

While there is now over 4000 articles on this wiki, there has only ever been a few users that contribute often, mainly myself and another user. According to the spotlight rules, we should be clear for each of the requirements. Yami Michael 08:59, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Duel Masters wiki looks great and I've added it to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 02:21, November 17, 2010 (UTC)
Where do they appear anyway?
The spotlights appear in the three slots at the bottom of each page on wikia. They will appear on whatever hub the content team decides is likely to be interested in them. It will probably be a few weeks before the spotlight goes live; at that time I will remove it from the "approved" list on this page. -- Wendy (talk) 00:16, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

Tron Wiki[]

Hi, I would like to submit the Tron Wiki to be considered to get an spotlight. We have recently finished the Oasis transition, so we're now ready for the change, with an awesome skin and wordmark. We have over 200 articles and we follow all of the best practices. Tron Legacy is probably one of the most anticipated films of 2010, and will probably be the highest grossing film of this year, so to honor that, an spotlight will be required, either for this month, or December (the month it will be released). One question, though. If this spotlight is accepted, will it appear in the new Oasis spotlight module? This pic could be used for the spotlight. Thanks in advance, --((((Matias)))) ~ Talk AVATAR Wiki 22:56, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

EDIT: If you need some text: "The game has changed".

Hi. Answered this on-wiki; pending a few small changes. -- Wendy (talk) 02:01, November 17, 2010 (UTC)
Everything looks good and I am adding to the approved list. -- Wendy (talk) 00:20, December 3, 2010 (UTC)

Shrek wiki[]

Hello, I have a delayed request. I was wondering if the Shrek wiki (aka. WikiShrek) could have a spotlight November 2011, when the Puss in Boots movie is coming out. We currently have 194 articles, many of which are stubs, but we'll work on it in the meantime. This isn't really important for the moment, but I like to start early with these things.
Help:Smelly Users (talk) was last edited at 12:20, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Congratulations on reaching 200 articles! That said, in order to be spotlighted, the wiki needs 200 non-stub articles. Usually I definie a stub as anything you have put a "stub" tag onto, and any article shorter than 300 bytes or so. Right now you have about 80 articles that are too short and another 17 in your stub category. Please continue to work on strengthening your content, and, although the timing won't be as optimal, feel free to ask again for a spotlight when you have 200 non-stubs. -- Wendy (talk) 01:21, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

The Boondocks Infomation Center[]

Hello I would like The Boondocks Information Center to be on wikia's spotlights, the place has really improved since March 5th, 2010. The Boondocks has just now finished season 3 and not many editors are coming because not a lot know about but a few do, half come, half leave. www.boondocks.wikia.com was what I used to work on till vandalism people are trying to find a database for The Boondocks since the Official Site does not update. The wiki is exciting because of The monthly/weekly polls and i would like more editors to come. So please add it to The Spotlight. And would you use this image. Sondow209 00:43, October 3, 2010 (UTC) Admin.

Hi. The Boondocks Information Center looks really nice and congratulations on reaching 200 articles. It doesn't quite meet the spotlight criteria however. It needs to have 200 non-stub articles, which I usually define as articles longer than 300 bytes; right now about 50 of your articles are too short. Similarly you would need to make sure all of your articles are categorized; right now about 50 of them aren't. Please ask again when you have had a chance to further strengthen and organize your content. -- Wendy (talk) 02:23, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Wiksteria Lane (Desperate Housewives Wiki)[]

Hi. I would like Wiksteria Lane to be in the spotlight sometime. It has been featured recently, but we saw no increase in editors or viewers. Season 7 is back on TV, and with the return of some very popular villains for the early seasons, its looking like a good season. Desperate Housewives has a huge fanbase, and it would be great to see some of the fans editing. We hopefully still tick all the criteria... Thanks, UFO Editor 20:13, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I'm sorry your first spotlight didn't bring you more editors. The wiki does still meet all the spotlight criteria, and I have added it back into the upcoming spotlights. -- Wendy (talk) 02:14, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Spore Create Wiki[]

Dear the Team at wikia, Spore Create Wiki is a fictional site for the game "Spore". It is a project to organize the fictions made by players. It is small, but has a great community and has very few blocks. It is the only active Spore fanon wikia. It is doing well since it's founding July, 2010. Please put it on the spotlight for:

  1. Being an example of community.
  2. To attract more Spore players instead of having a million Spore fanon wikis.

Thank you for even listening. Creatureboy11 - September 29

Hi. As I think you know from the way you wrote the request, wikis being spotlighted through this page need to have at least 200 non-stub content pages. Good luck building the wiki, and please ask again when it has grown a bit bigger. -- Wendy (talk) 02:05, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Uncharted Wiki[]

Hello. I am an administrator at the Uncharted Wiki. I adopted it about a month ago and I am hoping to promote the Wiki so that we can get more contributors. We have a small number of fairly regular editors, but considering that the online multiplayer feature of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves receives over 45,000 players every day I feel that the Wiki being spotlighted will help the Wiki expand greatly. Also, the first anniversary of Uncharted 2 is coming up and a Game of the Year Edition is to be released in just over two weeks, and a spotlight now would coincide with these events. Thank you for your time in advance.--Klock101 20:18, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

Please note that I have ensured that all pages on the Wiki are categorised. However the pages with galleries at the bottom of the article will not display the categories. If you click the edit page button for that article, you can scroll down and see that the categories are there, but for some reason the gallery prevents it from being shown.--Klock101 23:14, September 26, 2010 (UTC)
Hi. Uncharted Wiki looks great and I have added it to the upcoming spotlights list. The problem with the galleries was that you did not have the close tag on them (</gallery>); I fixed them for you. -- Wendy (talk) 02:03, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! I have one question. Do I have to upload the image that will appear on the spotlight, and if so, where do I upload it to?--Klock101 14:02, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Fable Wiki[]

With just over a month before the release of Fable III, we would like to request a spotlight for the wiki. At the beginning of October, a book will be released to tie in with the release of Fable III as well as a limited edition Fable controller. As you can see from these, it is a highly anticipated game.

We still fit all the spotlight criteria since the last spotlight as well. It would be good to have it running through most of October and the beginning of November due to everything being released. That's all.

I know this is probably not the best place to ask but could you also put in a word to get it placed on the Xbox 360 Hub of Wikia due to the fact it is such a big anticipated game.

Thanks, ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 10:11, September 25, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Fable Wiki looks great and I've added it to the upcoming spotlight list. I can't do much about the hub page I'm afraid but I will pass along your interest. -- Wendy (talk) 01:43, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Marvel Database Wiki[]

I would like to formally submit a request for a spotlight on the Marvel Database Wiki. We have over 65,000 pages and almost 75,000 images on the site and even tout our site as being the "Best source of Marvel Comics info on the 'net". However, due to the large number of other sites on the internet similar in nature to ours, we constantly struggle with trying to get a larger piece of the 'internet pie' and readers. When people wander onto the site, we are very welcoming and enjoy helping new editors in 'getting their feet wet'. Even though we do have a smaller team of regular contributors (though SEVERAL viewers), they all have made great contributions.

Now I understand that since we are a larger Wiki we naturally bow out and try to give new Wikis a boost. In this manner, we have come together as a group and helped bring in 'sister' Wikis (DC, Image and Dark Horse) to name a few. We gladly link to other Wikis (when possible) and feel like we are a great member in this Wiki family. --M1shawhan 22:46, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Marvel Database is a great wiki, and meets almost all of the spotlight criteria. The one issue is that you have a fully (sysop-level) protected mainpage. For spotlights through this request page the edit protection would need to be dropped to protect only against anonymous and new accounts, or I would need to see the vandalism concern which warrants greater protection; right now I cannot see any real history of vandalism on that page. Please let me know if you have any further questions, and when you have dropped or explained the protection I will be happy to add you to the Upcoming Spotlights list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:30, September 19, 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for taking care of that. I have added you to the upcoming spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 23:21, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

The British Wildlife Wiki[]

I am an Admin for The British Wildlife Wiki (http://thewwcbritishwildlife.wikia.com/). We have had a lot of photo uploads recently and had a spotlight before but with a lack of content uploads other than myself and my family we need some more people to help make the wiki bigger and more successful. We have been established a nearly a year and in that time we have nearly created 1000 articles.


Thanks TheWWC2 21:44, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I can see that you have put a lot of hard work into your wiki, and it meets most of the spotlight criteria. However, slightly more than 1/4 of your articles are currently stubs. This would need to be reduced to 1/5th. Please let me know when you have had a chance to strengthen these articles. -- Wendy (talk) 23:54, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Insane Earthbound Adventures Wiki[]

I'm hoping to make my wikia more knownPokemasterLink 20:48, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I'm sorry but your wiki needs to have 200 non-stub content articles before it is eligible for a spotlight through this request page. Please ask again when you can meet that and the other spotlight criteria. -- Wendy (talk) 23:41, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Goosebumps Wiki[]

I would like to request a spotlight for the Goosebumps Wiki. I really need help, I cannot manage it myself. We have the occassional user, and one person is kind of helping me. It has 217 pages on it. We have a really cool Main Page. I hope you look at it, and if it does not qualify for something, I'll be glad to fix it! Slappy Was Here! 19:54, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Goosebumps Wiki looks great and has a fun skin, but it does not currently meet all of the spotlight criteria. It would need a link to New Files to the sidebar menu, and a customized Community Corner on My Home. Also you need to drop the main page protection to allow logged in users to edit it (middle protection level). Most of the content pages (140 of them) are uncategorized and would need to be sorted. Finally the wiki does not currently have 200 non-stub content pages; you have about 50 pages shorter than 300bytes and only 216 total pages. Please ask again when you have had time to create more content and can meet all of the spotlight criteria. -- Wendy (talk) 23:36, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Club Penguin Shops Wiki[]

The Club Penguin Shops Wiki has racked up almost 400 pages in about a month! :D All pages have been categorized, the main page does have images. We also have our own theme. We think we are ready :) We really need the new users :D

--{{subst:User:CPSW Rockhopper/Sig}} 16:32, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

You have 20 uncategorized pages, you should fix them before Wendy replies. DP 17:29, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
Yes I saw. We are working :) --{{SUBST:User:Ben 100022/Sig}} 00:44, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
Hmm, seems after I categorized 5 wikia slowed and crashed for a minute on my side O_O --{{SUBST:User:Ben 100022/Sig}} 00:49, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
Nvm, finished :D --{{SUBST:User:Ben 100022/Sig}} 00:53, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Club Penguin Shops Wiki looks great, and congrats on making so many articles already! The users you have are obviously working hard which is great to see. I see two criteria you would need to work on for a spotlight. The first is that your content is a bit weak; you should have no more than 1/5th of your articles as "stub" pages (which I'm defining as less than 300 bytes in length). Right now that number should be about 90 and you actually have about 120; you would need to expand some of these. The other is that people are being promoted and demoted from admin status pretty constantly. I would like to see about a month without promotions/demotions and other internal drama to convince me that this wiki meets the spotlight criteria for stability. Please ask again when you can meet both of these criteria. -- Wendy (talk) 23:19, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Karos Online Wiki[]

I would like to request a spotlight for Karos Online Wiki. This wiki is made to help players in understanding the basic information about the game. Quests, Classes, Patch notes etc. is updated on a regular basis. I hope it will pass the standards of spotlighting. Thank you very much Richmond831 05:55, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Karos Online Wiki is very pretty; you have obviously put a lot of work into the skin design! There are a few things it needs in order to meet all of the spotlight criteria. Could you please add a link to New Files in your sidebar menu, and customize the Community Corner on the My Home page? Also you would need to drop the Main Page protection to allow registered users to edit. Finally, you have about 130 uncategorized pages; could you please sort them? Please let me know when you have taken care of these things and I will look again. -- Wendy (talk) 22:55, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Apple Wiki[]

I think that this wiki should qualify. I've been working very hard on it. I'm the only editor there (and more than 100 uncategorized pages (but most have categories)), but we come third when "Apple Wiki" is searched, giving us a bit of an advantage. I-20the highway 02:25, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Apple Wiki looks like it is generally in good shape. As you noted, there are some uncategorized pages to be sorted out (most of the ones I checked did not have categories). Also for the spotlight you would need to drop the main page protection to allow registered users to edit. Let me know when you have finished both of these tasks and I will be happy to add Apple Wiki to the Upcoming Spotlights list. -- Wendy (talk) 22:44, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

HTML & CSS Wiki[]

HTML & CSS Wiki is where users can learn HTML and CSS by using the articles on all the elements and properties. They can also ask for help since the users on HTML & CSS Wiki know a good amount of code knowledge to be able to help them out. So far, I'm the only active editor; other editors are inactive. SSgtGriffin

Hi. I think a wiki to learn html and css is a great idea. There are a few things you need to tweak before it can be spotlighted. The main page protection for editing would need to be dropped. You also have a couple of uncategorized pages that need to be sorted. Finally you have about 140 articles marked stub; this would need to be reduced to about 60, or 1/5th of your total content. Let me know when you have taken care of these issues and I will be happy to look at the wiki again. -- Wendy (talk) 17:43, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

LPW Wiki[]

Hello, I am an admin on LPW Wiki, which is the number one source for Lords of Pain Wrestling. Lords of Pain Wrestling is a professionally-operated e-federation that's featured on the Lords of Pain website. Regarded as one of the most competitive and popular e-federations on the world wide web, LPW spans handlers from five continents. Comprised of all original characters, LPW features two distinct brands known as Insanity and Pyromania. Each brand consists of approximately 25 active e-wrestlers, featuring their own championships, shows, and pay-per-view events.

The main page has several features: Featured eWrestlers, which are currently our 8 champions, Featured Event, Featured Championship, featured match from the history of LPW, News, new blogs, and, my personal favourite, the HDtron Jukebox, which has the customized enterance videos of our stars.

The Wiki has over 700 articles, and over 1,100 images! Finally, on behalf of the LPW Wiki staff, would like our Wiki which we have worked on sinec February 24, 2009. If we are accepted, would you be able to use this picture:

Previouly, we had a picture of Christain, who is the base of a retired e-wrestler, and we have no connection to WWE. In the picture linked to above, it features CM Punk, who is the base of one of our current stars. Thank you. Silver Hawx 10:14, September 10, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. LPW Wiki is still in great shape and I have added it into the Upcoming Spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:45, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

Mass Effect Wiki[]

I'm one of the administrators for the Mass Effect Wiki, and after looking through the requirements for a Wiki Spotlight, I believe that the Mass Effect Wiki meets all of the requirements. While our main page is protected, but it had a strong history of vandalism before a member of the staff protected it with I believe the lowest form protection there is. And finally we are always keeping on top of new things in the Mass Effect universe. Lancer1289 21:53, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Mass Effect Wiki looks fantastic. Could you please add a link to New Images in your sidebar? Let me know when you have done that and I will be happy to add you to the Upcoming Spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:41, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
The link to New images has been added to our sidebar. So unless I missed anything else, we now meet the requirements. Lancer1289 19:25, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
Great! I've added you to the upcoming spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 18:16, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

The Calvin and Hobbes Wiki[]

Hello. I am sure that The Calvin and Hobbes Wiki meets all of the requirements for a Wikia Spotlight. The main page is protected, because when the wiki was started, IP's kept vandalizing it. It has been around since Wikia was still Wikicities! Let me know if anything needs changing to conform to the rules.
--Brovie talk 20:10, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Brovie. Calvin and Hobbes Wiki looks great; I like the layout as it is very clean and simple. The front page is fine as it is only protected against new accounts and anonymous users. There are, however, a few other issues before the wiki can be spotlighted. You have about 60 uncategorized pages that need to be sorted out. There are also 100 pages marked "stub", and nearly that many which are shorter than 300 bytes, which I consider a stub. By either measure this is about 1/3rd of your content. You need to have no more than about 60 stub articles. This includes articles either marked "stub" and/or shorter than 300 bytes in the Short Pages list combined. Also could you please add a link to new images in your sidebar menu. Let me know when you have addressed these issues and I will be happy to look at the wiki again. -- Wendy (talk) 03:13, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

Dinosaur King Wiki[]

I would like to nominate my Dinosaur King Wiki. It has around 382 pages. It is checked every day for vandals and rule-breakers. --✯DinoQueen13|Talk Contribs✯ 20:27, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Dinosaur King Wiki looks great and I have added it to the Upcoming Spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 02:51, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

Andromeda wiki Spotlight Request[]

I would like to request a spotlight for the Andromeda wiki. It is the largest database for information on the Andromeda TV series on the internet, with over a thousand articles and an active community. The url is Andromeda.Wikia.Com, and a spotlight would be much appreciated. Acaeton 02:26, September 10, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Andromeda Wiki looks great. There are a few things it needs before it can be spotlighted. First the Main Page is simply too wide. It needs to display properly on a 1024px wide screen, as this is still a very common screen resolution for wiki-users. Right now the entire 3rd column is off the edge and it is necessary to scroll horizontally to see the content. Secondly you need a link to new pictures somewhere in the sidebar menu. You have a couple of uncategorized pages that need to be tagged. Please let me know when you have taken care of these issues and I will be happy to add your wiki to the upcoming spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 02:38, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

Madagascar Wiki[]

I am one of the admins for this wikia and hope you agree to give it a Spotlight. The Wikia is about the MADAGASCAR SERIES (Movies, and TV Series). --Deb1701 22:35, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Madagascar Wiki looks like a lot of fun, and I can see that you have worked hard on it. There are a few tweaks it needs to meet the spotlight criteria. Can you please drop the protection on the main page to allow autoconfirmed users to edit the page? I cannot see that there was any vandalism prior to it being protected. You also need a link to New Images in the sidebar menu itself, not just on the Main Page. Right now though you have too many stub pages; they should be no more than about 1/5th of your content (roughly 120 pages in your case) but you have nearly double that number. I'm defining a stub as less than about 300 bytes in the Short Pages list. Please work on strengthening the content of the wiki, and ask again when you have fewer stub articles. -- Wendy (talk) 00:50, September 14, 2010 (UTC)
New Images link added. Most of the stubs are for episode transcript pages that have not been done yet. --Deb1701 23:20, September 15, 2010 (UTC)
Let me know when you've had a chance to fill in the transcripts then :). -- Wendy (talk) 02:28, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

Castle Age Wiki[]

Castle Age Wiki is the best resource for information on the Facebook (and MySpace) game called Castle Age. Castle Age is a Top 100 app according to AppData. I am an admin at this wiki. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 4:16 PM PST 9 Sep 2010

Hi. Castle Age looks like a great wiki -- I love your skin! Could you please customize the Community Corner on the My Home page? Also you have about 30 uncategorized pages which need to be sorted. Please let me know when you have taken care of these two items and I will be happy to add the wiki to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 00:10, September 14, 2010 (UTC)
Okay, Community Corner is updated and all the uncategorized pages are categorized. For some reason 2 pages still show up in the uncategorized list, even though they do appear to have categories.
I'm currently browsing with the "new look" beta skin. Will Spotlights show up there also? -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 9:31 PM PST 15 Sep 2010
Hi. Thanks for taking care of those two issues. I have added you to the upcoming spotlight list. There will be spotlights in the new look skin, but I do not know when they will start being active, so I can't say if your spotlight will appear there or not. -- Wendy (talk) 02:19, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
How long does a spotlight run? -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 7:57 PM PST 20 Sep 2010
Two weeks. -- Wendy (talk) 02:29, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
Hmmm... I'm still seeing it (which is nice, actually). Is it still running on some social gaming wikis? -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 3:03 PM PST 18 Oct 2010

MOVIE WEAPON WIKI[]

HI!!! This is my newly made wiki: http://www.movieweapon.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page, that really need promoting as a lot of work needs to be done on it!!! please choose this one --Moviemaster1993 20:32, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Not to burst your bubble, but the Spotlights require 200+ content pages, and you only have 24. --✯DinoQueen13|Talk Contribs✯ 20:46, September 9, 2010 (UTC)
Hi. Movie Weapons is a great idea for a wiki. Unfortunately, as DinoQueen said, you need to have 200 content pages before we can approve you for a spotlight. Please ask again when you can meet all of the Spotlight Criteria and good luck with your wiki! -- Wendy (talk) 00:04, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

Dragon Ball Wiki[]

Hey! This is SSJ4 Lewich, an Administrator on the Dragon Ball Wiki! I think that our Wiki conforms to all the rules set. Let me know if anything needs changing!  SSJ4 Lewich  talk  contribs 

Hi. Dragonball Wiki looks great, but it does need a few tweaks to meet the spotlight criteria. First, the main page protection would need to be dropped from sysop-level to autoconfirmed for edit; as far as I can see the page was protected a year ago, but there was no vandalism prior to the protection. Next the Community Corner on My Home needs to be customized. There are also a few uncategorized pages -- could you sort them out? Please let me know when you have addressed these criteria and I will be happy to add your wiki to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 23:59, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
Hi. Thanks for taking care of those things. I have added you to the upcoming spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 17:20, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

Paul is Dead Hoax Wiki[]

This is my first time trying to request a spotlight. I recently created this Wiki and want to promote it so that I won't be the only one working on it. I only have 4 pagesMaxwell157 19:48, September 8, 2010 (UTC)Maxwell157

Hi Maxwell. Without a link to the wiki, I can't review it directly, however wikis need at least 200 articles to be spotlighted through this page. You can see all the spotlight criteria that the wiki needs to meet here. Good luck with your new wiki, and feel free to ask again when you meet all the criteria. -- Wendy (talk) 03:11, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Wikisimpsons[]

We had a spotlight a while ago but next month, September, a new series is going to air. Season 22 starts near the end of September so we would like to be spotlighted in the September-October period. We have an image to be used now, here, if you wouldn't mind. We still fulfil all the criteria, I think. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:33, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

The main page is fully protected as well as we have recently redone it and want to limit vandalism. It still gets vandalised by some users with protection down. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:34, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
Hi. Wikisimpsons is in great shape and still meets all the spotlight requirements. I will be happy to add it to the spotlight list. However your image needs to be resized to 200x75px . Please let me know when it has been resized and I will add the link. -- Wendy (talk) 03:05, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
I have resized the image. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 06:58, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Chrono Wiki[]

I am the admin for the Chrono Series aka the Chrono Wiki. I have a decent about of active participation in the wiki, but I would love to promote it further if I get a chance to get featured in the spotlight. We currently hold a Crimson Echoes namespace which still need much work on as well as Chrono Cross section that featured many red links. Although Chrono Trigger has many articles in its name, we can always use more. We hold over 1200 articles pages and have gain 300 in less than three months. By getting the spotlight we can increase to over 2000 articles goal. We are a friendly bunch of people and we continuously moderate for vandalism and correcting/adding anything we see fit! I hope you'll consider our small active community in the spotlight.

Visit our page!

--Zeypher 14:54, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Zeypher. Chrono Wiki looks really nice, and it sounds like it is growing quickly! There are a few of the spotlight criteria which it does not currently meet. There are about 100 uncategorized pages; could you please sort them? Also, you would need to add a link to new images somewhere in your sidebar menu. The biggest problem right now though is stub content. You have nearly 700 pages, which is over half of your content, tagged into a stub category. You would need to trim this down to about 250 pages, or 1/5th of the content. Please let me know when you have taken care of these issues and I will be happy to review the wiki for a spotlight again. -- Wendy (talk) 02:58, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
Great job cleaning up the stubs and other issues. I have added Chrono Wiki to the upcoming spotlights list. -- Wendy (talk) 02:11, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
Good deal! Can't wait to see it featured! This would really help bring in some Chrono fans and contributors! Thanks again for this opportunity. Zeypher 08:59, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

LifeMusic Wiki[]

I know this is our third attempt, but we've grown a whole lot since the last request. I believe we're finally ready. Thanks and God bless! Master Fredcerique | (Talk) 18:53, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

  • We recently celebrated our one year anniversary. We also have an online Bible and an ArtShare project (a project were users upload art, whether music, pictures, quotes, etc., and have them critiqued by the wiki community). If the stubs are a problem, please tell me how I can find out the percentage of articles that are stubs. Thanks. Master Fredcerique | (Talk) 18:23, September 1, 2010 (UTC)
Hi Master Fredcerique. Congratulations on the 1 year anniversary! I appreciate that you are continuing to work so hard on your wiki, and it is fine to keep asking for the spotlight. Your wiki still has too many stubs, as you guessed, to be spotlighted. There is nowhere that you can see the percentage directly, but if you look in Special:ShortPages, you will see a list of all your articles from the shortest to the longest, and their lengths in bytes. You have about 3500 articles, so you should have no more than 700 articles that are stubs, which I define as roughly less than 300 bytes. Right now you have many more than that. I hope that explanation helps you work on expanding your existing pages so that the next time you ask for a spotlight I can approve you for it. -- Wendy (talk) 01:06, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
Thank you. I guess that'll be my project for the next few weeks: expanding stubs. I'll see if I can get everyone else to work on that too. Thanks again for the advice. God bless. Master Fredcerique | (Talk) 04:33, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

Fushigi Yuugi Wiki[]

Umm, I'd like the Fushigi Yuugi wiki to be more popular, I worked it (along with others, of course) to create many content pages. I need contributors and I think it would be fit for spotlighting.

kakonomomone 09:40, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. You seem to be doing a great job expanding the content of this wiki. There are a few things that need to be worked on to meet the spotlight criteria. You have a bunch of uncategorized pages; could you please sort them out? Also could you please add a link to New pictures in your sidebar menu (wherever you feel it fits). Finally, and most importantly, your custom skin appears to be incomplete; the top space is just blank, the logo cuts off mid-picture, and there is no "Wikia" logo visible. Additionally some things are unreadable (black on black) on the main page as well. Please finish customizing your skin (you may find users at the Forums can help if you have questions), and fix the other issues. Let me know when you have done all of that and I will look at your wiki again for the spotlight. -- Wendy (talk) 00:40, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
Great. Thanks for taking care of those issues. I've added you to the spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 01:26, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Nerf Wiki[]

I would like the Nerf Wiki to be more popular. Me and a team of great editors fixed it up a lot. It has many pages and lots of info. I want it to be more popular, because I have put a lot of work in it and don't want it to be wasted. I would like to see it more popular because it is a nice wiki. Cpt. RileyLet's Talk 03:09, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Nerf Wiki looks like a lot of fun, and I'm sure your work won't be wasted. Unfortunately, wikis need at least 200 content pages in order to ask for a spotlight on this page. Please ask again when you can meet all of the spotlight criteria. -- Wendy (talk) 03:57, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

Good Eats Wiki[]

I'd like to have the Good Eats Wiki spotlighted again. It has over 1,600 articles, all started by me mostly. I need some help! —This unsigned comment is by Metnever (wallcontribs). Please sign your comments by adding "~~~~" in the source editor.

Hi. Good Eats Wiki has a few tweaks it needs in order to meet the spotlight criteria. Could you please customize the Community Corner and add a link to new images in the sidebar menu? There are about 30 uncategorized pages that need to be tagged. Finally, about 1/3rd of your content is a short/stub page (less than 300 bytes); for a spotlight you would need to trim that number to about 330, or 1/5th of your content. Please ask again when you have a chance to work on these issues. -- Wendy (talk) 03:52, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

Rush Wiki[]

I'd like to request a spotlight for the Rush Wiki. I'm working on the tour dates and discography currently with another user. We just went over 200 articles. --Metnever 22:17, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

Love the wiki, and as a fan it pains me to tell you, that I doubt the Helper is going to approve your wiki due to the following: Out of 340 articles 93 are under 300 bytes, and 44 Uncategorized pages of which some appear to be content. Suggestions are to deal with all those date pages, I'd almost suggest coming up a way to put them together like either by Month or Year instead of by day. Instruments are hurting your stub count too, I'd suggest writing the features of the instruments and studio songs/tour songs they used them on. Devilmanozzy (Talk Page) 07:09, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
Hi. You've done a great job so far on the wiki. As Devilmanozzy says, there are a few things you need to do in order to meet all of the spotlight criteria. First could you please customize your Community Corner (on the My Home page, bottom right hand side) and add a link to new photos in your sidebar menu? You still have about 20 uncategorized pages, which need to be sorted. Finally, you have about 100 short/stub articles; with 350 articles that number would need to be no more than 70 in order to be only 1/5th of your total content. Please let me know when you have had a chance to work on these issues, and I will be happy to look at the wiki again. -- Wendy (talk) 03:33, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

Land Before Time Wiki.[]

It's been a while since Land Before Time Wiki was last spotlighted, and I'm pretty sure it still meets the criteria for spotlights. I'd like for it to be displayed again. Will-Girl 19:51, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Will-Girl. Land Before Time Wiki has a few tweaks that it needs before it will meet the current spotlight criteria. There are a couple of uncategorized pages, and the Community Corner needs to be updated. More importantly, a large portion of your content is currently a stub (roughly, less than 300 bytes as listed in Special:ShortPages) -- nearly 1/3rd of it. To be spotlighted you would need to decrease the number of short, stub articles down to about 130, or 1/5th of your total content. Please ask again when you have had a chance to expand these articles and strengthen the wiki content. -- Wendy (talk) 03:19, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

Ace Combat Wikia[]

Hello, I'm an administrator at the Ace Combat Wikia/Acepedia, which covers all information of the legendary Ace Combat flight simulation series. The Wikia was in an absolture state of decay in 2009, being overrun with spam & fanfiction. I talked with a fellow admin in early January, and both of us were sysop'ed by the remaining admin. Ever since we've run a massive sweep in the Wikia, erasing fanfics & executing (READ AS: blocking for 5 years) all IPs/members involved. Our place has a lacking userbase, with new members being something akin to a miracle (note the hyperbole.) We've got over 750 pages, and we're trying to add all information possible to the site. An Spotlight would certainly help us to increase our userbase.ProtoStealth 02:31, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Bump. --Havoc'48 16:53, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Ace Combat Wiki looks great - I can see you've put a lot of work into it. In order to be spotlighted, you will need to turn back on the Wikia auto-welcome system. Please let me know when you have done that and I will be happy to add the wiki to the spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 15:10, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Alright, MediaWiki:welcome has been set to "@protostealth". All preparations are complete. --ProtoStealth 19:34, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for turning that on. I've added you to the spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:20, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Modern Wikia[]

Hello, I am the founder of Modern Wikia and it has been 6-8 months since our last spotlight and we have recently grown to 250 articles and still growing. I would like to request a spotlight not only to get contributors but build the community and have users engage in contributing and social interaction.--Andrew Schlieffen (talk · contr) 16:43, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Andrew. Modern Wiki looks great but it does not currently meet the spotlight criteria. Could you please add an image to your main page? Also you need a link to Special:NewFiles somewhere in the sidebar. Of more concern to me, you appear to have put nearly all of your content into one big catch-all category. This is not a helpful category structure for visitors, as intended by the spotlight criteria. Could you please work on adding more specific categories to your content pages? You have a few already (eg. Category:Ecology), but they are largely empty right now. You should probably consider adding more, for things such as countries, governments, world events, wars, etc. Please let me know when you have worked on this and I will reconsider your request. -- Wendy (talk) 14:48, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
Ok, recent added images are Special:NewPages and Ive added more categories to the pages--Andrew Schlieffen (talk · contr) 21:07, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
Great. I've added your wiki to the upcoming spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:50, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

Neopets Wiki[]

Hello, I am Ben 100022. When I adopted this wiki over a year ago I was under the name Sonamy4000. And now I have helped this wiki. We have over 1,200 articles. 1,267 to be exact. We few editors believe we need this so we can get many users onto our wiki. We are combing through the old pages that were left to rot when RJ and the others quit in about 07 or 08. The wiki was founded in 2004! Meaning the wiki is almost 6 years old. In december our wiki will be celebrating and we hope to bring many more users with this spotlight request. I will, in closing, leave a link to the site: http://neopets.wikia.com/wiki/Special:RecentChanges

Sincerely,

Admin of the Neopets Wiki,

Ben 100022

Hi. Neopets Wiki looks great -- you've obviously been working hard on it. A few tweaks are needed to meet the spotlight criteria. First could you add a link to new images somewhere in your sidebar menu? Second, you have over 20uncategorized pages]]. Could you please take care of them? Finally, your main page does not have any links to the main content. A list of major categories, or some sort of image gallery with links to major categories would be really helpful there. Please let me know when you have taken care of these issues. -- Wendy (talk) 04:17, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

The Wheel Of Time Wiki[]

Hi. I think that we meet all the criteria. Over the past year me and the other new Admins have fixed up the wiki to make it look nice and include everything needed to be spotlighted. It has almost every single character from The Wheel of Time universe completely up to date with the new book out last year and prepared for the new book coming out this fall. So I was making this formal request to get a spotlight so we can bring in more users and start a forum soon. Thank you for considering our wiki.--OPTIMOUS 18:02, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

The Wheel of Time Wiki looks really good. However at the moment you have over 1000 pages in your stub categories (so 1/4th of your content); you'd need to reduce that by a few hundred pages so that stubs made up no more than 1/5th of your content (around 800 pages) in order to meet the spotlight criteria. The apparent goal of having a page for each chapter in this long series is very ambitious! Please ask again when you've had a chance to fill in the content a bit more. -- Wendy (talk) 03:20, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

Prison Break Wiki[]

Hello, I think that this wiki meets all the requirements. We have requested the badges system as well. Thanks in advance, --((((Matias)))) ~ Talk AVATAR Wiki 03:45, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. You need to fix the text on your main page, which is currently white on white background and unreadable. You may find the Wikia Forums a good place to ask if you need help with it. Let me know when that is sorted and I'll look at the wiki for the rest of the spotlight criteria. -- Wendy (talk) 03:05, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
