So, it's been a while since I quit, and I've been hanging around, watching the wiki and editing here and there. Things seem to be going okay on a superficial level--more pages and users, etc, and it seems like some of the admins are stepping up and dealing with things like vandals and so on.

But overall, I don't think the wiki's doing all that well. The stubs and dead end pages still number in the hundreds, a good chunk of the users are non-native speakers and it really shows, and everything is pretty chaotic. I might dismiss this as the inevitable result of a fanon wiki, but I've been running into those here and there. Most of the big-name ones are pretty professional-looking. They promote quality and creativity over quantity and hits.

This is kind of a big leap, particularly from someone who isn't an admin anymore, but I figured I might as well ask. Could I take over from you in running this wiki? On the most obvious note, I seem to have more free time to do this than you do, so I'd be able to handle its problems more readily. However, this would mean some major changes in how the place is run. Along with some of the issues we discussed before I quit (anons can't make series, getting rid of abandoned stuff) I'd implement more quality controls and even a system to make sure that only people who can actually admin will get the job. If you're interested I can give you more specifics of what I have in mind. I'd be glad to discuss stuff and compromise with the other admins, of course.

Tl;dr: Your idea of a place where every Ranger fan can just post their ideas is a nice one, but it makes for a chaotic mess of a wiki. I'd rather turn this place into somewhere that people go for quality fanfics than just focus on making it big.
