Paranormal Wiki https://paranormal.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page (Status: Done)
ZenSwordz (talk) 20:04, 7 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Wiki: Paranormal Wiki https://paranormal.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page
 * Username: ZenSwordz
 * Are you the founder? (yes/no): No
 * Reason: Saw this wiki stagnating in the site matrix. I feel like I could do a decent job with it, as I'm well versed in the occult and paranormal.
 * I've removed rights from the founder, granted you the same rights, and removed the site notice. Usually I'd say this should be up for discussion, but technically speaking the wiki has had no edits since being created, and was eligible for deletion (according to Policy, not the sitenotice).
 * PS, please see my talk page about your other wiki. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 01:16, 8 October 2016 (UTC)

MacFan4000 (talk) 15:21, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Wiki: applebranchwiki
 * Username: MacFan4000
 * Are you the founder? No
 * Reason: I think I can run it. Also my wiki has a similar topic.
 * ping TriX (talk) 05:53, 22 October 2016 (UTC)
 * I've changed the rights accordingly. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 19:21, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

Ujima (Status: Done)
Andrews (talk) 20:46, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Wiki: Ujima
 * Username: Andrews
 * Are you the founder? (yes/no): No answer given
 * Reason: Project has been dormant but is starting up again now
 * ✅ MacFan4000 (talk) 21:07, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

Inkubator (Status: Done)
Bt109 (talk) 15:46, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
 * https://inkubator.miraheze.org/
 * Username: Bt109
 * Are you the founder? (yes/no): No answer given
 * Reason: I created this Wiki as a way to develop story generation techniques, and I tried to develop it with my daughter and some family friends, but it fell by the wayside for a little bit. Now my daughter wants to use it again, and I want to develop it more and invite more people. I believe that this can become a new form of crowdsourced fiction techniques, and I will restart the project on another website if necessary, but I prefer to do it here because of the work that has already been invested.

https://freecollegeproject.miraheze.org/

 * Wiki: freecollegeproject.miraheze.org/
 * Username: Guy vandegrift
 * Are you the founder? No
 * Reason: I want to instruct students to do labs/essays and other assignments on their own Miraheze pages that are private so that they will not be able to look at each other's work in progress. This is something Wikiversity is not able to do.  Also many courses have students writing Wikipedia articles using the Wikipedia_Education_Program, which also precludes privacy as students write. Grades represent and important part of college education, and forcing students to do their own work on parallel projects is the mainstay of grade assessment.  I am already active on a private wiki at https://wikiversity.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page that we are using to beta-test the idea of students using Miraheze in this way. The freecollegeproject.miraheze wiki could be an umbrella for anybody interested in fostering wikitext in college education.  An important role would be the hosting of a collection of templates useful in such projects.--Guy vandegrift (talk) 17:18, 21 November 2016 (UTC)


 * I will unlock the wiki later (Special:ManageWiki is currently disabled here for an unknown reason). Per the section of the Dormancy Policy about adoption, if you are not the founder requesting a reopening (which isn't really adoption anyways) you must meet certain activity requirements on the wiki in question before rights will be transferred from current users to you. After the wiki is reopened, you may edit and use it normally as any public wiki. If you need pages deleted or other sysop-only requests, please contact a Steward who may perform the action for you, or if needed on a regular basis, grant you temporary sysop to deal with issues there. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 14:30, 22 November 2016 (UTC)
 * PS: This request should remain open until the wiki is actually adopted (rights changed) or the request is canceled. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 14:30, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Drones4Nature https://drones4all.miraheze.org
Patribus provisory (talk) 14:28, 26 November 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm the founder of this wiki and today (26.11.2016) I finally wanted to take care of it and start filling the webpage with information.
 * However, the wiki is blocked (closed) and my original account (User: Patribus) also.
 * I would very much like to reactivate the wiki, in order to avoid creating another one.
 * Once the wiki is active, I would need help to redirect my domain www.drones4nature.net on my wiki, but that is another subject.
 * Please let me know what I have to do. Thanks!
 * ✅ MacFan4000 (talk) 14:58, 26 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you! Who should I contact with regards to the domain redirection? Patribus provisory (talk) 17:43, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

https://linux.miraheze.org (Status: Closed/Declined)
Streetfog (talk) 23:01, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Wiki: https://linux.miraheze.org
 * Username: Streetfog
 * Are you the founder? (yes/no): No
 * Reason: Wiki has gone 1 year and 2 months without changes. I would like to keep the wiki active and away from its deletion.
 * It is open. MacFan4000 (talk) 23:11, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
 * see the similar request above. You can edit the wiki as normally since it's not private or closed. You must actually contribute to the wiki in question before you the founders rights are transferred. If you need any administrative actions done (page unprotection or deletion) please ask a Steward to do it or ask for temporary sysop. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 00:02, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Closing this as declined because you have 0 edits since opening the request and the wiki is marked as inactive still. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 16:20, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Linux Advocacy https://linuxadvocacy.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page (Status: Done)
Tomg (talk) 03:28, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Wiki: Linux Advocacy https://linuxadvocacy.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page
 * Username: Tomg
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): No answer given
 * Reason: I and others would like to continue it please
 * Reopened. Reception123 (talk) ( contribs  ) 13:11, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much, but it doesn't seem to be editable yet. Tomg (talk) 23:48, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
 * It seems Reception123 mismanaged the wiki settings, I've just updated them. -- Void  Whispers 00:02, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Dear administrators, it seems to be read-only again. Is a database error happening? Would it help if I told you I was the founder? Tomg (talk) 19:36, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * This is because there have been no logs and the script has automatically closed your wiki again. If you need an exemption to this please see Dormancy Policy/Exemptions. I will now reopen your wiki again. Reception123 (talk) ( contribs  ) 15:29, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

AppleBranch (Status: Done)
MacFan4000 (talk) 14:02, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Wiki: AppleBranch
 * Username: MacFan4000
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): No answer given
 * Reason: Need this to be opened per a private on-wiki request. MacFan4000 (talk) 14:02, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Normally I would reopen directly but I don't understand what you mean by "a private on-wiki request". I see no requests or activity at all on applebranchwiki so how could there be an on-wiki request? If your reason is just that you need to edit something on the wiki I will be happy to reopen it. Reception123 (talk) ( contribs  ) 14:15, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * It was a private board to board message using SocialProfile. MacFan4000 (talk) 14:20, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Reopened. Reception123 (talk) ( contribs  ) 14:24, 24 December 2016 (UTC)

flatwiki (Status: Done)
Christy Ann (talk) 02:08, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Wiki: flat
 * Username: Christy Ann
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): Yes
 * Reason: I haven't launched this website yet so I'm the only user so far. I had some calamities over the summer and didn't have web access til recently. I do have regular web access now. Last spring I really tried to find ways to hook up more web pages in the structure I wanted (members having different levels of permissions), but I have trouble figuring out how to make it happen. Some assistance to understand privacy settings would help things speed up. I still very much wish to continue this wiki with Miraheze.
