Requests for reopening wikis

    From Miraheze Meta, Miraheze's central coordination wiki
    Requests for reopening wikis
    You may request a closed wiki be reopened (if you are not a bureaucrat) if it was closed due to inactivity.

    Pictogram voting info.svg Note: If a wiki was manually closed, any reopening must be discussed with the local administrators or raised on the Stewards' noticeboard. We cannot help you here.

    If you would additionally like advanced rights (administrator and/or bureaucrat), please start a local election instead.

    If you are already a bureaucrat on the wiki, go to Special:ManageWiki/core (on your wiki) and uncheck the "closed" box to reopen your wiki. Wikis that are set to private cannot be adopted due to privacy reasons! You must be a registered user to request a reopening.

    For other global issues, use the Stewards' noticeboard.

    • Username: FlamingStallion69 (userrights)
    • Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): No
    • Reason: The wiki was closed due to lack of activity, but there are still outdated pages and missing information that I'd like to add. It would be said to see it gp. I'll try updating it as much as possible.

    Technically this can be cleared, but for the addressing Steward I would note that this is an NSFW wiki and has questionable content on it. From a cursory glance, there's nothing that violates the Content Policy, so again, technically  Cleared, but it's up to a Steward to make the call.

    @Hookps33: Hi there. This wiki appears to have been deleted by Miraheze. As such, the wiki is X mark.svg no longer available. 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) 23:18, 17 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    Status:  Cannot be undertaken
    • Username: Motiwari (userrights)
    • Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): no
    • Reason: Hi, could you please reinstate codex.miraheze.org? It seems to have been permanently deleted, even though it hasn't been 6 months since closure, so I can't go to Special:ManageWiki to reopen it
    Motiwari (talk) 00:27, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    @Motiwari: You are right, the wiki has been permanently deleted. Our apologies. Please feel free to request a new wiki at Special:RequestWiki and let me know if you have any questions. BrandonWM (talk • contributions • global • rights) 00:38, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    It's not possible to restore permanently deleted wikis, unfortunately. As Brandon said above, please submit a new request at Special:RequestWiki with a couple of sentences about your wiki. If you don't have a backup of your wiki, Reception123 may have one, although they're currently on a wikibreak, so they may not respond to your message for a few days.

    Status:  Qualitipedia Closure
    • Username: Xisnot01 (userrights)
    • Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no):
    • Reason: Most pages of this wiki were not archived.
    Xisnot01 (talk) 18:29, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    I'm sorry but this cannot be accepted. The wiki you mentioned was closed alongside the other wikis that are a part of Qualitipedia because there was a community vote to discontinue the wikis. There was more users supporting than users opposes and abstains which led to the closure and they are now deleted. TIMEKEEPING (talk༆) 18:46, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    Additionally, backups of all Qualitipedia wikis are on archive.org. Tali64³ (talk) 19:33, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    Status:  Done
    • Username: Heroku (userrights)
    • Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): no
    • Reason: I want to reopen this wiki and run a local election to become an administrator, to potentially revive or recreate the wiki as a comprehensive wiki for the game Deepwoken.

    Yes check.svg Done. Please make an edit ASAP to prevent the wiki from being automatically reclosed. Agent Isai Talk to me! 00:23, 22 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    I can visit the wiki now, but I can't make edits. I apologize if this is due to me seeing your message too late. Heroku (talk) 14:01, 22 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    The wiki in question was deleted for copyright violations (log action); therefore, it will not be restored. Tali64³ (talk) 14:31, 23 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    We're sorry, okay? we did not know about the new rule about nsfw. but it's still kinda unnaceptable to delete the wiki. if you want us to move the wiki to some site else, we'll do it and won't bother you anymore. Wubbzy The Editor (talk) 09:37, 24 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    The reason your wiki was deleted did not involve the new rules for NSFW wikis. Moving elsewhere and starting fresh is your best option. Tali64³ (talk) 10:36, 24 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    The only problem is, we don't know wherelse to move the animeshoes wiki. do you have any suggestions? Wubbzy The Editor (talk) 00:18, 25 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    I don't know if any other wiki host is willing to host this wiki as we did receive copyright complaints because everything here wasn't licensed. Agent Isai Talk to me! 00:20, 25 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    • Reason: The wiki was closed due to lack of activity, but there're still outdated pages and missing information that I'd like to add. I'll add more content and try updating it as much as I can, so I want to revive this wiki and keep this wiki active again and develop it so that it doesn't die out. Many thanks. Also there isn't even any content on the wiki.

    beyondvrc.miraheze.org

    Status:  Done
    • Username: DtKatze (userrights)
    • Are you a bureaucrat? (yes/no): No
    • Reason: Wiki was originally opened by me, but put on hiatus due to another team claiming to make their own wiki. Second team then suggested using Miraheze much later, and then asked me on the subject, thus leading me to reopen. Despite being founder of the wiki page, am unable to reopen the wiki manually thru the special pages.
