Counter-Strike Online Wiki[]
Hi Merrystar. I would like to apply Counter-Strike Online Wiki again for another spotlight with this picture and caption "Envy Mask: The Meeting with Dr. Rex" for the new update release. Thanks for everything. --ConTraZ VII 00:05, September 4, 2014 (UTC)
America's Got Talent Wiki[]
Hi, America's Got Talent Wiki (agt.wikia.com) could use a spotlight, with the show's newest season having its season finale next week.
Erik10101 (talk) 17:33, September 12, 2014 (UTC)
- Hi. America's Got Talent Wiki is still in great shape, however the spotlight will not go up until the start of October if I approve it today. Each wikia can request two spotlights a year and you requested your last one in June. So if you would like a spotlight in October we can do that. Or you can wait and ask again when the next season starts. Let me know what you want to do! -- Wendy (talk) 01:52, September 17, 2014 (UTC)
Aikatsu Wiki (approved)[]

Hai there, I'm one of the admins at Natsume Yuujinchou Wiki and would like to request spotlight for the wiki. The last spotlight was last year, and since the manga is still ongoing, with the latest volume published on 5th September, will this wiki eligible for the spotlight? Thanks.

Minecraft Fan Ideas Wiki (approved)[]
Hello, I'm SilverHexxitFights, bureaucrat of the Minecraft Fan Ideas Wiki. We requested a spotlight last year, and it was approved, but I never saw it appear (?)
I'd like to request one now. Our wiki is about fan idea submissions for video game Minecraft.
I don't have a specific image request, but I'd like the text to be "Ever had an idea that just had to be added to Minecraft? Submit it here!"

Khan Academy Wiki (approved)[]
Hello! We have over 1,000 pages on our wiki, which more than qualifies us for spotlight! VirusKA (talk) 00:06, September 23, 2014 (UTC)
Nanatsu no Taizai Wiki (approved)[]
Hello, I'm an admin at Nanatsu no Taizai Wiki, and I would like to request for a spotlight. If possible, I would like it to be some time around October 5th when the anime begins broadcasting. For the image, I would like to request using this. The wikia has had a spotlight previously, so I'm confident that we meet the criteria. A quotation like "The anime adaptation premieres on Oct 5th" would be perfect. Thanks. Roboartitec ~ Message 11:27, September 25, 2014 (UTC)
The Pokemon Wiki (approved)[]
Hello. We are ready to make the spotlight for the Pokemon Wiki. We'd like if we had two spotlights. First one would be around these days and I ask that this page is linked. The second one would be later, though I'll make sure to warn just when that would happen. The deal is the new game, Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire is coming out next month. We want the best commerical for the Wiki as possible that might even give something for the guys at Bulbapedia to think about.
Oh, and this is a separate wiki than this one. Energy X ∞ 19:38, October 9, 2014 (UTC)
Since time passes by, could you, before 21st November, launch another spotlight and link to this page? Energy X ∞ 10:08, October 18, 2014 (UTC)

Eurovision Song Contest Wiki (approved)[]
Greetings! I am the founder on the Eurovision Wiki and I'd like to have it spotlit because next year is the 60th contest held in Austria, and the national finals season is starting up. Also, we are looking for more contributors, and hopefully some people can see this and come along!
- I'm the founder
- 358 articles in total as of typing this, no real stubs due to templates but the main page is the shortest page
- The main page has a slideshow of images, and links to each contest, a featured article, news RSS... and is not sysop-protected.
- No upheavals as there are too few users
- Welcome-user and Welcome-message-wall-user
- Special:UncategorizedPages is empty as of typing this
- Community Corner is a bit quiet due to lack of users.
- No inappropriate images or language is used as far as I know, as it is prohibited because Eurovision is a light-entertainment family show, but I'm not sure of Jemini and their poses.
Thank you for taking your time, and I await your response I.eat.Goopys.carbonara talk • Eurovision Wiki 22:06, October 12, 2014 (UTC)

The Backyardigans Wiki (approved)[]
Hi! The Backyardigans Wiki is getting better and better every day, now with 1800+ pages (all factual and the best quality they can be). It was featured on the Wikia homepage in 2011 after I won the Wikis of 2010 contest and has had spotlights before, so the admins there (including me, the creator) know how to handle it. The Backyardigans itself could also use some recognition as its tenth anniversary was October 11, and it has not aired on TV since 2013 so users coming to the wiki are getting less and less...thanks for reading the request! - Sandy Cheeks (talk) 00:25, October 23, 2014 (UTC)
P.S. You could use any image of The Backyardigans, but some suggested ones are here and here as they reflect the series as of 1998 and we are trying to show the show's history. --- Sandy Cheeks (talk) 00:26, October 23, 2014 (UTC)
Call of Duty Wiki (approved)[]
Hi, I'm RisingSun2013 from the Call of Duty Wiki and I would like to nominate it for a spotlight.

Hi merrystar i noticed that the number of new editors per month has been at all time low so i thought a spot light would help and off topic what do those numbers like (9/13) mean in upcoming spotlight section thanks!

- Hello. Zombiepedia is in generally good shape. Could you please customize the Community Corner? Let me know when you have done that and I will be happy to add it to the approved spotlight list.
Wikiminaj (approved)[]
So this is about Wiki Minaj: http://nickiminaj.wikia.com/ and Nicki is releasing a new album in forty days. Would you mind putting the wiki on spotlight atleast 3 weeks before the release date which is December 15: http://nickiminaj.wikia.com/wiki/The_Pinkprint? The new album is called The Pinkprint and this is the deluxe version of the cover:
- Best practices
When you request a spotlight, your wikia should follow these best practices:
- The requester should be either an active admin, or link to a discussion with an active admin of the wikia who agrees to the spotlight. Yep ~ temporary though!
- The wikia should have at least 200 content pages, not counting stubs. Stub, or very short articles (less than about 300 bytes; listed at Special:Shortpages) and articles marked with a stub template should make up no more than a fifth of all pages. Yep!
- The main page should have at least one picture, and clear links to the most important content. It should not be sysop-protected from editing unless there is a strong history of vandalism; protecting against anonymous editors and new accounts is ok. Yep
- There should be a clear category structure to help readers navigate around the site. Every content page should be in a category (Special:UncategorizedPages should be empty). Yep
- The community should not be in the middle of choosing new admins, or any other upheavals; it should be a stable, friendly place. Yep
- The wikia should be using the Wikia welcome tool, signed by admins -- (MediaWiki:Welcome-user should say @latest, @sysop or the name of an admin.) Yep
- The message in the Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity should be customized. (MediaWiki:Community-corner) Yep
- The wikia should have a customized skin. Yep!
- The wikia should not use offensive language or include inappropriate images. About that. Now, Wikiminaj does have inappropriate languages and images. :/

Dragon Quest Wiki[]
Hi, my name's TheHungrySage, a newer admin at the Dragon Quest WIki and I would like to request a spotlight for our WIki. We have more than 3500 pages that provide thorough information on the entire Dragon Quest series, providing a large range of information from class details al the way through weapon prices. We are looking to boost our number of editors to help our community become even better! We also think that it would be beneficial to many users out in Wikia's wider community to become affiliated with us. TheHungrySage (talk) 22:38, November 26, 2014 (UTC)
- Hello. Dragon Quest wikia looks like a great resource for the community, but it would need a few tweaks to meet our spotlight criteria. The main page would need to be expanded slightly to include some portal-style links to large content categories (eg. games, walkthroughs, characters, items, locations, etc.); right now it doesn't really have many links into the content of the wikia itself. Additionally we would ask that you lower the editing protection to only prevent editing by anonymous users and new accounts; there is no evidence that the page was ever vandalized much and it has been fully protected for about 4 years now. Aside from the main page, you have some uncategorized pages that would need to be sorted out. And there are over a thousand pages marked as stubs; for a spotlight a maximum of 20%, or about 750 pages in your case, should be stubs. So you would need to go through that category and remove the tag from some of the longer pages. Please let me know on my wall if you have any questions, and leave me a message when you have had a chance to make some of these changes so I can check back again. -- Wendy (talk) 04:43, December 3, 2014 (UTC)

--TheOneFootTallBrickWall (talk) 08:33, November 27, 2014 (UTC)
- Hello. In order to be spotlighted Fanon Wikia would need a few tweaks to meet our spotlight criteria. The main page protection would need to be dropped to only block anonymous users and new accounts. You might want to consider re-vamping that page to have more images and include more links to major content categories as well. There are also quite a few uncategorized pages that need to be sorted out. Please let me know on my wall when you have taken care of those things and I will check back again. -- Wendy (talk) 05:06, December 3, 2014 (UTC)
State of Decay Wiki (approved)[]
Hello, I would like to request a wikia spotlight for State of Decay Wiki. It meets the requirements based on the criteria which are on the Community Central:Spotlights page:
It has 707 content pages, which 48 of them are not eligible (short and/or stub), which is approximately 1/15 against the said 1/5. The main page has pictures and clear links to the most important content. There is protection affecting new users and anonymous users from editing the main page. There is a clear category structure. (Special:UncategorizedPages is empty). It uses the Wikia welcome tool, signed by admins. The message in the Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity is customized. (MediaWiki:Community-corner) It has a customized skin. The wiki does not contain offensive language, nor it does contain inappropriate images which might offend viewers.

Skip Beat! Wiki (approved)[]
I am the only administrator/bureaucrat of the Skip Beat! Wiki and I would like to request another spotlight. The last one was last March. Now, I could say that it is more developed than last time with better templates and new articles so I really hope that this spotlight could attract new viewers and possible editors.
- The wiki has 600+ pages and only have 11 stub pages. It doesn't have any articles less than 300 bytes.
- The main page links to all the important pages of the wiki and it is semi-protected.
- Special:UncategorizedPages is empty. In addition to that, Special:UncategorizedFiles and Special:UncategorizedTemplates are also empty and all the files have proper licensing within them.
Like last time, The wiki is not in the middle of choosing an admin and it is a friendly place right now. The wiki also uses the Welcome tool, have the Community corner customized and have a customized skin.
If approved: Image // Title: Skip Beat! Wiki // Caption: The magnificent show-biz challenge.

- The wikia should have at least 200 content pages, not counting stubs.

(Number of content pages, number of short pages, and articles marked with a stub template)
- The main page should have at least one picture, and clear links to the most important content. It should not be sysop-protected from editing unless there is a strong history of vandalism; protecting against anonymous editors and new accounts is ok. (Main page)
- There should be a clear category structure to help readers navigate around the site. Every content page should be in a category (Special:UncategorizedPages should be empty). (List of uncategorized pages)
- The community should not be in the middle of choosing new admins, or any other upheavals; it should be a stable, friendly place. (Forum and blog posts)
- The wikia should be using the Wikia welcome tool, signed by admins -- (MediaWiki:Welcome-user should say @latest, @sysop or the name of an admin.) (Welcome tool)
- The message in the Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity should be customized. (MediaWiki:Community-corner) (Community Center)

Batman: Guardian of Gotham Wiki[]
My name is Brandon Baker and I would like a spotlight for my wikia Batman: Guardian of Gotham.
- Hello. Batman: Guardian of Gotham Wiki looks great -- very atmospheric. That said, it has too many stub articles to be spotlighted at this time. Stubs must make up no more than about 1/5th, or 60 pages on the wikia. Right now you have about 90 pages that are shorter than 300 bytes, and most of those are template episode pages with no information. There are handful of slightly longer pages that are also just the template, and those count as stubs as well. Please feel free to ask again when you have had a chance to strengthen the content on your wikia and fill in some of these blank pages with at least a little information. -- Wendy (talk) 04:14, January 21, 2015 (UTC)
Ellie Goulding third album[]
Hi, I'm Azending the admin of: elliegoulding.wikia.com
I was wondering if my wiki can go on spotlight EVEN WITHOUT THE REQUIRED SPOTLIGHT LIST because Ellie is releasing her third album THIS YEAR. One of her singles for Fifty Shades of Grey premiered today: http://elliegoulding.wikia.com/wiki/Love_Me_Like_You_Do_(song) and that means her third album's information will get closer and closer. I was wondering if you could give everyone a heads up that Ellie is releasing her album "Soon"! See here for more info: http://elliegoulding.wikia.com/wiki/Third_album_(album)
If you are (please :D) going to, can you make the title: "Ellie Goulding new album #Soon", the subtitle: "Read all about Ellie's upcoming 3rd album" or something. And, also, can you make the artwork any two shown in the pictures or anything from Ellie Goulding's latest Nike photoshoot here: http://elliegoulding.wikia.com/wiki/Nike or the "Beating Heart cover".
I seriously understand that there needs to be atleast 200 articles, but Ellie doesn't have that many songs.
THANKS! :)

Austin & Ally Wiki (approved)[]
Hi wikia staff, I would like to request a spotlight for the Austin & Ally Wiki! Austin & Ally is entering it's fourth season and the season four premiere episode premieres January 18th! Season four is actually a big season for Austin & Ally because this season was not guranteed to actually happen and the fans had to fight for it. We trended "#AustinAndAllySeasonFour" many times on Twitter January-March last year. We proved that we deserved the season and the show was picked up. This is also likely the last season for the show since Disney never goes to a fifth season. We would like to use this picture for the spotlight:
And for the saying underneath, it'd be great if it said "#AustinAndAllySeason4 is here!" It'd nicely reference the thing that played a huge part in bringing the season to TV. :) Thank you! :)

Disney Channel Wiki (approved)[]
Hello, I'm an admin on disneychannel.wikia.com. On behalf of the administration I would like to request a spotlight for our wiki. The channel is going to have a lot of session premiers in the next few weeks, and I believe that it would be a huge marketing value for Wikia. If at all possible we would like a promotion within the Entertainment hub, just like Austin and Ally had at the Lifestyles Hub. http://austinally.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Asnow89/Season_4_Premiere_Party_Menu. I know that that information doesn't affect a global spotlight, I just wanted to put it out there. Thanks for all your help!
~AwesomeOrange89, Executive Manager on the DC Wiki
- Hello. I cannot help with the hub promotion. In terms of a spotlight, Disney Channel Wiki looks pretty good but you do have some uncategorized pages. Please let me know on my wall when you have sorted those out and I will be happy to add the wikia to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 02:50, January 28, 2015 (UTC)
United States Counties Wiki (Countypedia) (approved)[]
Hello. I would like to submit the United States Counties Wiki (Countypedia) http://countypedia.wikia.com/wiki/The_United_States_Counties_Wiki for a spotlight. I have returned on the wiki after a few months of absence and I found out the place was dying. I feel that with the recent Senate elections, people will learn to understand more about our 3,141 counties and how they operate. I would prefer a large county map of the U.S. with the subtitle "Learn about our 3K+ counties!" CalzoneManiac (talk) 01:24, January 21, 2015 (UTC)
FlameClan Roleplaying Wiki (approved)[]
Greetings! I am Flamestar22. I was wondering if it was possible to participate in the Spotlight from this wiki: http://flameclan-roleplaying.wikia.com/wiki/FlameClan_Roleplaying_Wiki. I love to work on Wikia and would be happy if my wikia could attract other users to the Wikia. Let me know if that's possible, thanks! I look forward to your response! Flamestar 22 20:15, January 25, 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. FlameClan Roleplaying Wiki looks great in general. The only change needed in order to have a spotlight would be to lower the mainpage protection so it only blocks new and unregistered users from editing. Let me know on my wall when you have done that and I will be happy to add it to the approved spotlight list! -- Wendy (talk) 03:08, January 28, 2015 (UTC)
Gravity Falls Wiki (approved)[]

The Young and the Restless Wiki (approved)[]
Hello! I would like to request a spotlight for The Young and the Restless Wiki. The Y&R Wiki is a growing community of fans and editors dedicated to all things Y&R! We would love for our Wiki to become a one-stop source for everything Y&R related. We have recently expanded our Wiki with many new articles and images. We are building up a great community and I would love to attract even more users to our Wiki, who will register and join our budding community.
If possible I would like to use this image in the spotlight with the description "Find out the latest happenings in Genoa City and keep up with all your favorite characters on The Young and the Restless Wiki". I have reviewed the guidelines and found that we meet them all. We do have a few stub pages but we are working on updating those and would love for new contributors to help us with the task. I am an active admin on the Wiki if you have any questions or requests.
Thanks and I look forward to hearing your response! --LehuaRose (talk) 00:40, January 28, 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. The Young and the Restless Wiki is in generally good shape -- your main page image map is fantastic! That said, you do have a number of uncategorized pages that would need to be sorted out in order for the wikia to be spotlighted. Please let me know on my wall when you have taken care of those and I will be happy to add the wikia to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 03:15, January 28, 2015 (UTC)

Hypothetical Hurricanes Wiki (approved)[]
Hi, I'm one of the admins at the Hypothetical Hurricanes Wiki and I'm requesting for a spotlight to take place for that wiki. It meets about all of the guidelines and lately we've been improving that wiki so it could qualify. I've just categorized the last of the pages that needed categorization (there was once more than a thousand pages in that category) and all of the other guidelines are about met by now. The spotlight would probably improve this wiki's popularity since the number of active users at this wiki is currently a little low (although we have a nice team of admins) and we would really love a more active wiki. So, it would be awesome if you could accept this request, since this wiki is interesting especially for any hurricane enthusiasts out there. --Steve820 |Chat With Me • My Edits • ✉ 05:46, February 7, 2015 (UTC)

We are currently using @latest for the welcome message and have customized the message in the community center under recent activity. We use a customized background and we do not encourage or use any offensive language or inappropriate images. We hope to spotlight the wiki to welcome even more users! Thank you!

Doraemon Wiki[]
Hey there, I'm one of the admins at Doraemon Wiki and would like to request spotlight for the wiki. {{SUBST:User:BloomRocks!/Sig}} 11:27, February 10, 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. Doraemon Wiki would need a few tweaks in order to be eligible for a spotlight through this request page. The main page edit protection would need to be lowered to only protect against anonymous editors and new accounts (the move protection is fine). Also the page itself does not contain many links to the content (although it does have lots of featured items which are good); could you add a portal with images and links to characters, anime, manga, games, etc. to help visitors find your content? Finally there are a few too many articles in the stub category; there are nearly 200 which is more than 1/5th of your content -- you would need to untag about 15 of them. Please let me know on my wall if you have any questions or when you have finished this and I can check again! -- Wendy (talk) 04:59, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

- Hello. I'm sorry, but in order to be spotlighted through this requests page, wikias have to meet our spotlight criteria, which includes a minimum of 200 non-stub content pages.

Hi! I'm ShatterClub, and I'm the senior bureaucrat at TOR Wiki. We applied and got a approved for a spotlight back in 2013 (link), and are requesting one again in the hopes that we can draw in more interested users and build a larger community. I've checked us out, and it looks like we fit all the requirements except for the stubs, which is something else we also would like more users for. Aside from that, I think we fit the bill on everything else, but if not, message me and we'll do what we can to fix any lingering problems.
Let me know if this is possible. We look forward to hearing for you! ShatterClub|Message Wall 23:12, January 21, 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. TOR Wiki is in generally good shape, although for a spotlight you would need to lower the main page protection to only block new and unregistered users. However the stubs are a problem; 1/5th of your content would be about 800 pages and you have over 1400 marked as stubs. You would need to clean out the category and unmark some of the longer articles before the wikia could be spotlighted. Please let me know on my wall if you do that and want me to check again! -- Wendy (talk) 03:03, January 28, 2015 (UTC)

20:17, March 10, 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. I'm sorry, but in order to be spotlighted by request through this page, wikias must meet the spotlight criteria, including at least 200 non-stub content pages. The spotlights for wikias that do not meet these criteria are communities that staff has chosen to highlight; they did not request their spotlights. The criteria are intended to make an equal opportunity for all wikias to be spotlighted -- any wikia which meets them can be spotlighted by request. -- Wendy (talk) 02:47, March 11, 2015 (UTC)
Liv Dolls Wiki (approved)[]
The Admin of http://livdolls.wikia.com/wiki/LIV_DOLLS_FOREVER_Wiki (Liv Dolls wiki) would like to be spotlighted!
The site has more than 200 pages - all are above 300 bytes in size and are categorized. The main page has a picture and is open for editing. The content is organised in a logical and systematic method. Every content page is in a category. The community is so small – we need to spread the word, but have not been too good at doing this. There is one admin and a few contributors.The wikia uses the Wikia welcome tool, signed by the Admin.The wikia has a customized skin. We would like to update it…but graphics is not the present Admins strength and help is needed here and all over the site. Liv Doll Wiki is a child friendly site and is devoted to doll lovers of all ages.

Thank you for the prmotion. We did see as many as 400 visitors. But sadly some trolls also arrived (sorry cannot see what I am typing) so any errors are due to a gray screen. Now to promote the site at similar blog and interest sites. LivdollsinAfrica (talk) 11:23, April 23, 2015 (UTC)

Thanks---Killer365
Disgaea Wiki (approved)[]
Good evening. I'm Sanna, I'm a user on Disgaea.wikia, and on behalf of this wiki, I'd like to request a Spotlight. Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance is releasing in Japan on March 26, 2015, and I'm hoping that the spotlight would coincide with that date, beginning no later than March 24 (if I'm permitted to be so choosy about a start-date).
- The requester should be either an active admin or link to a discussion with an active admin - http://disgaea.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:8696 - Otherarrow is the active admin.
- The wikia should have at least 200 content pages, not counting stubs (300b). - http://disgaea.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Statistics - Content pages 1,104 - http://disgaea.wikia.com/wiki/Special:ShortPages - less than 60 pages with less than 300b, and I estimate about half of those are Disambiguations.
- The main page - http://disgaea.wikia.com/wiki/Disgaea_Wiki
- There should be a clear category structure - http://disgaea.wikia.com/wiki/Special:CategoryTree?target=Browse - and http://disgaea.wikia.com/wiki/Special:UncategorizedPages is empty
- The wikia should be using the Wikia welcome tool - http://disgaea.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Welcome-user
- Community Center on Recent Wiki Activity should be customized - http://disgaea.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki%3ACommunity-corner
- The wikia should have a customized skin. - I think we do? Being not-an-admin, I'm not positive, but we have a background image from the first game in the series, and the color scheme per game across the site is consistent, from what I've seen.
- The wikia should not use offensive language or include inappropriate images - I haven't seen any.
The only one we don't quite tick off is:
- The community should not be in the middle of choosing new admins or any other upheavals; it should be a stable, friendly place.
Well... the two of us who are here are friendly people... We're hoping the Spotlight will attract some new users who want to stick around ^_^.
Spotlight image: [3]
Title: Disgaea Wiki - Disgaea 5!

The spotlights usually go up twice a month (beginning and middle), so it will most likely go up around April 1st, although there is a chance it will be mid-April; we can't guarantee dates, but hopefully that is close enough. -- Wendy (talk) 01:35, March 18, 2015 (UTC)

- Hello. I'm sorry, but in order to be spotlighted by request, wikias need to meet our spotlight criteria, one of which is to have at least 200 non-stub content pages. Your wikia sounds like a fun subject, but it does not qualify for a spotlight yet. We do have some tips and ideas for helping to find contributors for your wikia that might give you some other things you could try instead. And you could always contact some of the other Animal Jam wikias and see if they wished to be partners with your wikia. -- Wendy (talk) 04:10, March 25, 2015 (UTC)

Hollywood Undead Wiki[]
Hello. I would like to get the Hollywood Undead Wiki (http://www.hollywoodundead.wikia.com) a Spotlight. It grew from a very small, dead fanbase wiki to a very well-made fanbase wiki. The wiki has two current admins, myself and Blood007. There are two spotlight guidelines that our wiki doesn't meet, though. We do not have more than 200 pages. We only have 119. I hope this can technically meet the guidelines, because there is truthfully no more pages we can create until Hollywood Undead releases some new content. We just want Spotlighted so fans of the band can come over, chat, and help us become a better and bigger community. The second guideline we don't meet is the rule of no profanity. Hollywood Undead is an explicit band with suggestive song topics, which is addressed in the Parents page where parents can see what their children are doing on Wikia. I hope that that doesn't stop us from getting a Spotlight. If we didn't use profanity, then the wiki wouldn't be as credible as it is now. Well, thanks in advance! Have a good day. - Fametown
- Hello. I'm very sorry because I can see that you have invested a lot of time and care into your wikia, but to be spotlighted through this page, a wikia does need to meet all of the spotlight criteria, including 200 non-stub content pages. Profanity within the lyrics is fine, but it would not be ok if you were randomly swearing at people on your main page (for example), so you are probably fine for that. Please do ask again when the wikia has grown further! -- Wendy (talk) 04:43, April 8, 2015 (UTC)

The wiki meets all requirements for the spotlight.
- The requester is an active admin
- The wiki currently has 390 pages, of which 65 are stub pages.
- The main page has pictures and clear links to the most important content. It is not sysop-protected.
- There is a clear category structure, Special:UncategorizedPages is empty.
- No upheavals. It is a stable, friendly place.
- The wiki uses the Wikia welcome tool, signed by admins.

- The wiki has a customized skin.
- No use of offensive language or inappropriate images.

The Starpolar Wiki (approved)[]
Hello. I am the founder of the Starpolar Wiki, Fatal Disease. I am here to apply for a Spotlight for my wiki. The Starpolar Wiki was created to allow users to host reviews and top lists (like a top 10 list) for their favorite games, stories, YouTubers, music, and anything they want to write about. They also have the choice to post their stories and have other users review them. Why do I want the site to have a Spotlight? The reason being is because I want people to know that this site exists and that it is a cool site to be on. You get to write as many reviews as long as it isn't flamebaiting; you get to write a top ten list of your favorite songs from your favorite artists, and you get to write stories that other users may enjoy.
We do meet the requirements. Right now we have 206 pages (our shortest one is 416 bytes); the mainpage right now is under construction for this but we do have pictures and links to our most important content; there is a clear structure of how users use categories in our category rules; our mainpage isn't protected; we do have applications for users to apply for rights but we don't have users applying for admin; we do have a welcome message; we have a custom skin; we hardly use offensive language or inappropriate images, and our wiki navigation is customized.

Lego Marvel and DC Superheroes Wiki (approved)[]
Hello, I have come here, as you may have guessed, to request for a position on the wiki spotlight. The wiki I come to represent (legomarveldc.wikia.com) has 296 pages with very little stubs and all pages categorized appropriately. The wiki's background and skin is appropriate with its own custom logo found in the top left. There is a gallery in the front page with links to major categories including major articles. There are also several polls to keep the community active.
To highlight further details of my wiki, I have appropriate rules and editing guidelines for new editors to understand categorization. I take care in making sure information is proper and format is uniform across the same class.
In addition, I'd like to take some time to demonstrate why I want a wiki spotlight. Although my wiki, has many assets and is in fairly good shape I want more editors as there are only two active editors currently.
All in all, my wiki meets many if not all of the qualifications to apply for a spotlight. I'd appreciate if you get back to me as soon as time permits. Thanks in advance.

Hello, I want to get editors on the Recess wiki. I'm a big fan of Recess and a regular contributor. This wikia has 448 pages. It was quite popular but nowadays hardly anyone edits (except me). I just had some more contributors, but they're not enough! 17:08, April 23, 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. I'm sorry, but there must be an active admin during a spotlight. I suggest that you finish your adoption request and then ask again. -- Wendy (talk) 01:10, April 29, 2015 (UTC)
Eurovision Song Contest Wiki (approved)[]
So the Eurovision Song Contest is coming up in less than a week, and so I'd like to spotlight the wiki for this reason. The link to the wiki is here. I don't mind if the spotlight is a bit late.
- At the time of me writing this, we have 557 pages and the shortest one is just 305 bytes, so just skinning the minimum. Shortpages link
- The front page has four main images, the list of countries and the list of years. Furthermore, it also has been locked to prevent new/anonymous editors.
- Uncategorised Pages is empty!
- We are not in the middle of any upheavals as there are only two people (including myself) actively editing. We do get the odd anon, but very rarely.
- The MediaWiki:Welcome-user is on @latest.
- Community corner is VERY quiet and rarely gets changed because there really isn't much of a community, but it IS customised.
- The wiki does use a customised skin.
- Offensive language and images are not allowed, as the Eurovision Song Contest is a family show, so I don't expect to find any here.
- The requester (me) is the wiki's founder
- If we do get accepted for a spotlight, I'd like to have this image used
- Thank you for taking your time. Tempestral/aka I.e.G.c 20:41, May 13, 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. Eurovision Song Contest Wiki is still in good shape and we will be happy to give it another spotlight.
Bible Book Club[]
This spotlight request may be a bit unusual but I am trying this in hoping for a shot. I am planning on starting a Bible Book Club, via Wikia's Mini Book Club program. I am working some of the pre-start materials and was hoping that rather than the wiki hosting it (Biblicalapedia) has a spotlight, it links to the book club and promotes the book club itself rather than wiki. I would like to be able to do several promotional events all at once (via social media, spotlight, forum highlighting and mass messaging) in order to get a large audience interested in the book club.
I know the nature of this spotlight would usually be made by a ComDev or Marketing team member, but I am hoping perhaps it is possible to get this to work. I have more details in progress and would love to chat further to discuss the feasibility.
Thanks,
Superdadsuper, Biblicalapedia Administrator and Bureaucrat
Hello. The issue I always find is finding the staff member who has the authority (usually what will happen I will ask one and get directed to another one). Could you help me by directing me to the direct authority on books spotlights and making sure they are aware they will be getting a message? Thanks, Superdadsuper, Biblicalapedia Administrator and Bureaucrat
IT Knowledge Base[]
Hello,
I just completed creating enough pages to qualify for spotlight (hopefully). Please consider this site IT Knowledge Base. It's not as fancy as the others yet, but can be once get some contributors.
Thanks,

- Hi Gerry. IT Knowledge Base looks good -- congratulations on reaching 200 content pages! There are a few tweaks that it would need to meet our Spotlight best practices. You would need to spruce up the main page with some images, and perhaps some additional on-site links to the content. If you are unsure how to change the design, you can request help from staff. In addition to the main page, there are quite a few uncategorized pages that would need sorting out. Please let me know on my wall when you have done both of those and I will check again. -- Wendy (talk) 01:55, May 27, 2015 (UTC)
Fandom B-daman Wiki (approved)[]
Hello there. I been wonder that I really need helpers, now I need. Please help me by edit in a fan made wiki for b-daman, Fandom B-daman Wiki. This is the wikia for fans to post their characters, bdamans and stories in the wikia to show the others about their own Fan Fictions of B-Daman.

- Hello. Faandom B-daman Wiki looks good and just needs one small tweak in order to meet our spotlight best practices. Could you please lower the main page edit protection to only block against new and anonymous users? Let me know on my wall when you have done that and I will be happy to add the wikia to the approved spotlight list! -- Wendy (talk) 02:01, May 27, 2015 (UTC)
