 * 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.

 * The wiki in question was manually closed by one of its bureaucrats, Hell Bamboo. Please contact them first about the possibility of reopening the wiki. Tali64³ (talk) 03:25, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Under current policy, as far as I'm aware, wikis can be manually reopened even if they were closed by a bureaucrat unless the wiki was marked as private. BrandonWM (talk • contributions • global • rights) 02:15, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Since there is confusion, let me clarify the procedure as per Dormancy Policy and how these requests are handled. Tali is correct: the bureaucrat should be contacted first. Stewards may reopen the wiki in this circumstance, but realistically they won't unless the closure went against the wishes of the contributing community. I don't see that here, but the closure is strange and seems to have come out of nowhere.
 * I encourage to reach out to Hell Bamboo about what's up. I'll courtesy ping  to have a look, as the wiki's founder. --Raidarr (talk) 15:37, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
 * your request was a mirror of this one. Same advice above applies. --Raidarr (talk) 19:29, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello guys, founder of the Backrooms Miraheze Here! I wanted to make a brief statement explaining the closure of the wiki. Here it is: After months of inactivity in our wiki, at least for the both of us, Hell Bamboo (aka Sineor Ex) and I have agreed to shut down the Miraheze branch of the Miraheze Backrooms wiki. This decision came after we faced a lot of criticism and hostility from other sources when the FANDOM discovered our wiki that "merges" the other Backrooms wikis. We also suffered a raid (the perpetrators even sneaked in a link to Phub!) that made us lose trust and interest in the project. We felt that we had no other option but to stop being active on there and eventually close it for good. This was truly a terrible idea. I hope you guys understand, and in my opinion, it's better to leave it closed. Josephdapro08 (talk) 09:30, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): YES

 * Marseille Craft (talk) 19:22, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi there. The wiki in question has not been closed, so you should be able to edit freely without issue. If you are requesting rights on the wiki, please follow the Local elections procedures. If you are requesting an inactivity exemption for the wiki, so the wiki won't be closed after periods of inactivity, please see the Dormancy Policy for more information. If you need any assistance or have questions regarding them above, please let me know and I'll be happy to help. BrandonWM (talk • contributions • global • rights) 02:17, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I would like to edit freely without issue, but when i go on my wiki, i have 404 not found : "Wiki non trouvé
 * Nous n’avons pas pu trouver ce wiki. Vérifiez l’orthographe et essayez à nouveau." so I can't do anything Marseille Craft (talk) 03:04, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * The wiki was deleted but not dropped. I brought this to a Steward and it is now undeleted. You can reopen the wiki by going to your local Special:ManageWiki page and unsetting 'Closed', and if you just want to make a backup you can go to your local Special:DataDump to get a copy of the wiki text and then reply here requesting it be deleted again. Apologies for the confusion above. --Raidarr (talk) 15:47, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): No
 * Reason: My favorite wiki, Don't close it.

slome.miraheze.org

 * Wiki:
 * Username: Sebbog (userrights)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): No
 * Reason: Slome is a game developed by Sebastiaan better known as robotnik. Slome is currently in Alpha 4 pre release 4, its kinda like Terraria and Minecraft but you're a Slime that can stick to walls. This wiki would be to document the people who made it the game itself and the features within it, but when i requested with this reason it was denied because something like this allready existed so i would like to rework the subdomain to work for the game called Slome instead since the allready existing subdomain is a closed wiki anyway. (Also could i get perms?)

windows.miraheze.org

 * Wiki:
 * Username: Orbitron (userrights)
 * Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no):
 * Reason: I have recently taken interest in reopening a wiki about Windows. I'm not exactly sure why the wiki was deleted, maybe inactivity? Anyway, I'd like it reopened, if that's possible.
 * Orbitron (talk) 02:06, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
 * The wiki's database has been permanently deleted, so it's impossible to restore. Please request a new wiki via Special:RequestWiki. Tali64³ (talk) 02:08, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
