Requests for reopening wikis

gagikaj.miraheze.org

 * Wiki:
 * Username: PestarztKevii (userrights)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): Yes, but I could not access it or get it back on my own
 * Reason: I want to continue working on this wiki. I don't know if it had been deleted because of content deemed "controversial" or if because it was considered inactive for too long.
 * If it was the former, I swear I had the home page of the wiki be a big clear disclaimer that the content within was the unfiltered fantasy and escapism of a select few people, and that it was unsuitable for minors and sensitive-minded people. I kept all content that was overly violent, gory, or of an implied sexual nature in collapsible tabs, and typed a "view at your own risk" disclaimer before each one. If concern over this is really the reason why the wiki is gone, then I do not understand how this is fair to me when there are other wikis such as Monster Girl Encyclopaedia that receive far more traffic and attention than my little place and the content there is blatantly of a sexual nature.
 * If it was the latter, then my absence is explainable: the past year has been very rough on my life and mental health (everyone is trying to go back to pre-Covid levels as aggressively as possible), so I ended up forgetting about this site because I was trying to focus on getting myself back to a relatively stable condition. I recently realised that I had left it idle for many months. Please, I beg, I would like to have this wiki back. It means a lot to me personally. I can include a copy of the original statement for why the wiki was made back when I submitted a proposal for it and how it would be used if that is needed.

 * Your wiki's database has been dropped, so unfortunately, it cannot be undeleted. You'll have to request a new wiki, and if you have a dump of your wiki, you can request that it be imported with Special:RequestImportDump. If you don't, dumps of public wikis are available on archive.org (which should include your wiki if it was public). Tali64³ (talk) 12:57, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I see.... thank you for telling me of this. If you can, could you give me a general time or date of when it was deleted so I could have an idea on where to start looking? And assuming I do find a data dump, how would I present it to re-create the wiki? Would I have to provide a copy of the original statement for explaining the wiki back when I submitted a proposal for it? --PestarztKevii (talk) 13:42, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * An archived dated June 16th, 2022, shows your wiki as closed but not deleted, so I'd find the last archive before then. Tali64³ (talk) 13:54, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * May I ask where you found that archive? The best I could find at the moment dates back to 22 November 2022 --PestarztKevii (talk) 15:21, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I will prod to see if there might be something on-server that might help. Unlikely but it can be a good measure. Unfortunately I think this is a bit too far from the 'might still have a copy somewhere' timeframe. But if the wiki was public then you are 'fine', you'll just need to do some digging because the archive dumps are very big.
 * If you were to get a dump, you would re-request the wiki with a summary of what it was about and stating you are recreating it + intend to submit an import request, then proceed as Tali described above. Doesn't need to be long, just concise and providing a gist. --Raidarr (talk) 14:57, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I apologise for the trouble I'm causing. I hope I don't have to bother too many people for this. --PestarztKevii (talk) 15:21, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The line should stop here shortly, no worries. Apologies for the inconvenience. --Raidarr (talk) 15:27, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

eisc.miraheze.org

 * Wiki:
 * Username: Justkay (userrights)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): yes
 * Reason: The page was about internet-eurovision contest which is once a year and it will be continued. I missed that it will be closed if there are no edits or log actions made within the last 60 days. There are still unfinished pages, which I need to edit. Now I know that it must be edited within 60 days, so Can you reopen wiki? Please? I will try to edit as often as it is possible.
 * Justkay (talk) 14:26, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ given the 60 day window (an inactivity notice appears after 45 days), you only need to worry about editing basically once a month (it can be a minor, almost nothing edit if you wish). You only have to really worry after a full 6 months of nothing at all, where it may be subject to deletion. If the wiki is edited seasonally (nothing going on for much of the year) you can consider asking for a Dormancy Policy exemption. --Raidarr (talk) 15:07, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi there. This wiki appears to have been deleted by Miraheze. As such, the wiki is ❌. Archives may be found on archive.org, if the wiki was public. Our apologies for the inconvenience caused. If you would like, you are more than welcome to submit a request for a new wiki at Special:RequestWiki. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. BrandonWM (talk • contributions • global • rights) 05:04, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay, belay this near-automated response as this is a special case, not least because a re-request likely would not succeeded due to the wiki being closed for policy violation. Due to the sheer size of images files on the wiki it would likely be an issue providing a useful download for them, I'll have to let SRE/Stewards comment on that chance, but the advise of pulling the wiki's text from archive.org is real although I would imagine an XML of the text can be offered directly. I am forwarding this for direct Steward attention, although strictly speaking this request should be made on the Stewards' noticeboard or by email to stewards@ since it is out of scope for reopening requests. --Raidarr (talk) Raidarr (talk) 20:50, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
