 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no):
 * Reason: I was sick
 * Since you are a bureaucrat on this wiki, you can reopen the wiki by yourself. Simply go to here and uncheck the closed box. Let us know when you are done or if you have encountered any problems in this process, thanks. --Matttest (talk) 23:27, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * This seems to be locally reopened by the wiki’s local bureaucrat, mind closing this as locally handled? It is even set as private as far as I can see. --Matttest (talk) 09:25, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Side note (and other observers), if a wiki has been reopened in the meantime and was not marked here, non-stewards may mark as locally handled. --Raidarr (talk) 20:41, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Marked as ✅. --Raidarr (talk) 20:40, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Username: Elynrae (CentralAuth)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no):
 * Reason: I am the elected lead of the club and we need the wiki open but I don't have access to reopen it.
 * ✅. I should note, it would be preferable for an older authorized club officer (preferably bureaucrat, but I'd consider a note from a previous administrator given the circumstances) to update your rights to include  and , the former for most tools and the latter for wiki settings including reopening. If this isn't possible a somewhat longer process is needed to get rights. This is all assuming you'd like operational control, as the elected lead of the community the wiki was created for. --Raidarr (talk) 20:55, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Lardy (talk) 01:31, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Wiki:
 * Username: Lardy (CentralAuth)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): yes*
 * Reason: I started a wiki a while ago but I have been unwell so I couldn't do anything for a while and now it has disappeared. I believe the wiki database was called ukulelecorner but the system cant seem to find it for me to reopen.
 * Sorry for the late reply. Although I am not a steward, it is obvious that the wiki is deleted (it may still be in the database for re-enabling, see the Dormancy Policy) and the domain name provided here should be correct per your wiki request. Since this is a time-sensitive matter, I am pinging Raidarr, a steward here for a further follow-up. I will suggest you if the wiki is successfully reopened, you may request for an exemption from the wiki being deleted. You may be interested in checking the guidelines here. Cheers, Matttest (talk) 08:31, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅; the database was correct. As exemptions go they tend to set a somewhat high bar in content and circumstances, and I must say there are quite a few stubs that would make the content part difficult. But with growth or a determined case, it can still be considered. --Raidarr (talk) 20:50, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Gabyp112 (talk) 14:24, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Wiki:
 * Username: Gabyp112 (CentralAuth)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): no
 * Reason: A long time ago I was a constant editor on this wiki, but due to personal problems I had to leave the wiki for a while. Now that I have more free time I wanted to edit on this wiki, but apparently the owners of this wiki have not wanted to give much importance to it, to the point of not having edited for 60 days. That's why I want to be the new owner of this wiki, because I think I can create more pages and run this wiki better.
 * ✅. Please note that the wiki cannot necessarily be 'owned'; you need to request management access via a local election, the general idea I cover in this essay. In the waiting time you can go ahead and start tweaking things/making pages and as long as nothing special appears/the management has truly left, the rights will likely be granted. --Raidarr (talk) 12:52, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Wiki:
 * Username: LegoSteve55 (CentralAuth)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): No
 * Reason: the Earth 98 Wiki was a fun wiki to visit, but sadly it has been abandoned by its owners. Hence, I would like to adopt the wiki and preserve it, maybe even help expand on it.
 * ✅. If you would like to 'adopt" in terms of getting advanced rights, please see the linked essay as it's slightly involved. --Raidarr (talk) 01:19, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Wiki:
 * Username: LisafBia (CentralAuth)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): No
 * Reason: I want to have this wiki. I held a local election, but nobody voted.
 * In that case, you should state where you held the local election and request the permissions at Stewards' noticeboard. Then, a steward will examine the election. Cheers, Matttest (talk | contribs) 13:31, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Matt is correct and this does appear to have been taken to the SN, where I intend to address it... probably tomorrow given the late time for me here. --Raidarr (talk) 01:45, 16 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Wiki:
 * Username: Volpit (CentralAuth)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): no
 * Reason: I need that page because I lost its content (I didn't have a backup). Also I wanted to modify somethings regarding the info shown there. Thanks
 * Hi, your wiki was permanently deleted on 28 February 2021, so it cannot be 'adopted' since it no longer exists. However, it's likely that I still have a backup for your wiki. I would suggest re-requesting a wiki (mentioning that you want to recreate your old wiki) and then opening a task on Phabricator requesting that the backup is restored.

 * Username: BumbleBee2 (CentralAuth)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): I’m the founder, but I can’t access Special:ManageWiki/core because it’s closed.
 * Reason: I have been inactive on this wiki for quite a while do you taking an hiatus from writing. That hiatus has ended. I was not aware of the dormancy policy and this wiki hold sentimental value to me.
 * unfortunately (assuming there is no issue in the domain name) the wiki appears not only to have been deleted, I can't find the database - so, per above, it has likely already been dropped. I will cc to confirm that the above advice of re-requesting the wiki and getting it imported with Phabricator still applies. Unfortunately if the wiki was private, this will not be possible. --Raidarr (talk) 01:36, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
 * My wiki was private. What I find strange is the day I entered the request I could find some traces of the wiki. In my Global Account information I found see my wiki listed. I while before I wrote the request I couldn’t access the Special:ManageWiki, later that day I could. Strangely I couldn’t edit anything and the closed and deleted boxes where not checked out. But the next day both where gone. This may mean to permanently deleted the day after I requested it back.
 * The wiki was just deleted two days ago unfortunately, but you're in luck as there's still an XML dump available. Please re-request a wiki and then request that the backup is restored on Phabricator. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 05:13, 16 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Hi there, you can restore the wiki by going to your local ManageWiki core page and unticking 'Closed'. --Raidarr (talk) 01:32, 16 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no):
 * Reason: I would like to edit something on the wiki
 * Hello, the wiki is not closed and thus cannot be reopened. I would advise you to check out the Dormancy Policy about the process of reopening wikis. Also, this wiki is set as private, so even it is closed, it cannot be undertaken unless you are part of the “members” user group. I am not so comfortable marking this as not done on my own since I am not a steward, so pinging Raidarr (a steward) for further confirmation. Cheers, Matttest (talk | contribs) 14:03, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Marking as ❌ per above. The wiki isn't closed, only privated. Please contact local administrators for help. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 15:21, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
