This page is where you can request administrator and/or bureaucrat rights on wikias without an active admin and/or bureaucrat team. Wikias can only be adopted by an active community member, though, so before you post your request please be sure you meet the following requirements.
Please note that official wikias (e.g. Community Central, VSTF Wiki, etc...) are never eligible for adoption.
Please allow a minimum of one week for a response to your adoption request. Official responses will usually come from Wendy or Rappy, who will look at requests when they have the time to do so. We look forward to having you adopt a wikia!
