Hey mirahezians,
It seems the "request for adoption" button isn't working--it won't allow me to edit the page.

Hi there mirahezians,

I can't really seem to get the request for adoption button working and instead get redirected towards the source of the page (See Picture).

Thanks y'all

Can you adopt a wiki that's not closed?

I want to adopt the Terrible Niche Audience Shows Wiki so I can make some adjustments. Things like the video and comments don't work because the settings aren't enabled. SpongeBobFan99 (talk) 23:13, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

SpongeBobFan99 No, unfortunately, only closed wikis can be adopted. You can, however, request a Steward to perform certain (usually minor) changes if there are no active bureaucrats. Generally, though, what you can do is instead hold a local election, following these guidelines, and request a Steward assess your election when your election concludes (usually after a week or so). Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 23:16, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
