Welcome
Hi, welcome to Animanga Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the User talk:Sxerks page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Dantman (Talk) 16:12, December 8, 2011

RE: Animepedia Bot
Dantman is the one who deals with the template bot, but I don't think it is working anymore, you can ask him. Or you could possibly do a Special:Export of the template pages that you need, and then "Special:Import" them on your wiki, I'm not sure where a good list exists though.--Sxerks 17:46, December 8, 2011 (UTC)

re: The Law of Ueki Wiki
I put a generic redirect on the main page of each of the abandoned wikis, I've done this same thing to a lot of them, so people should know where to go. And I updated the animanga page to point to yours. The only real way to have the wiki closed and redirect to yours is to do a Special:Contact and point out in the user list that the admin has abandoned it and there are no other editing users.--Sxerks 19:35, February 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure if they would even do it. They tend to just leave them open.  You could just do them all and give it a try and see what they come back with as a response.--Sxerks 05:31, February 5, 2012 (UTC)

re: no editors
I was going to suggest talking to people on the abandoned wikis listed here, but you kinda did that already, though you should have looked at the Special:ListUsers on those wikis to see the full list, not just the founder, it also shows the last time they logged into Wikia, for some of them it was 2 years ago, and they will not likely even get the message.

Spotlights don't always help to get editors, mostly readers. The requirements are, a favicon, a wiki-wordmark, the footer on the main page, (you have those), and then a link back to the Animanga Hub in the Wiki-nav menu (you currently have an IRC link).

Other places might be other website Forum Threads that talk about the subject, and other anime and manga resource discussion pages like blogs, but try not to spam people with requests, just simple mention that there is a wiki about the topic. --Sxerks 05:31, March 1, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hey Ryoga, I have the same problem on most of my Wiki's. I've experienced that the more you work on the Wiki yourself, the more visitors will be attracted to editing. Just add content and make the Wiki amazing and the editors will come. Of course, The Law of Ueki is a pretty obscure subject (in contrast to COD or even Bleach), so your Wiki will never really overflow with editors. 18:50, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
