Inactive
It seems that the founder, User:RCT Fan, does not do any work on the wiki anymore, and he hasn't transferred any powers to other users. I would gladly take the post of admin, since I have done most of the work here lately. --Ezporsche 04:13, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

I might request to adopt it, but recently I've been busy, so it might be a few months before I make my request. --Ezporsche 23:28, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

The only other active user I know of is User:Rps eagleforChrist‎, and he hasn't been on for a month or so. It's ok if you ask to adopt it first and give me the admin privilege later. --Ezporsche 23:08, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Logo and skin
Hi Ross. Thanks for the compliments. I still make logos, although I've been really busy with projects for the last week or so. I plan on getting somewhat caught up with logo requests this weekend, so I'll be sure to get yours done. JoePlay (talk) 21:36, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

I can see if I can make a logo as well this weekend. No guarantees, but I'll see what I can do. --Ezporsche 03:39, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Sure
You've been doing heaps for this Wiki, I would gladly make you an Admin, but I don't have bureaucrat rights. What you could do is request to adopt the wiki, if RCTfan hasn't been active. If it's granted, you'll have the rights to this Wiki. If you do please give me rights :). Sorry I haven't been active, I work on quite a few of them. Check 'em out if you have time. --Matt 20 1 03:11, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks, and also, I think we can make a good team. I see you only have 1 and 3. Well I have all of them, but number 2 is my favourite, so I can work on that alot. I'm sure we can lift this wiki back from the ashes. And also I've noticed that there isn't really a page on 'The Amazing Earl'. Should there be? He's a guy who creates his own rides and scenery. --Matt 20 1 08:31, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Amazing Earl
I've finished the Amazing Earl article. Is that the sort of thing you wanted? Are there any other articles we need done that I can help you with?--Matt 20 1 06:49, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Ride Template
I've created a ride template so that all the rides of RCT can be displayed in the same manner. It's just a table. The information needed is already on most of the ride pages, but placing it in tables will tidy it up, and also I've noticed a few ride pages are different. This will unify them.

And also, to use it, you should type '' in this case, Ride being the template name, and then save the page. The table will then be put on the page. Should I write a guide (unless there already is one) on using templates, because if the actual template is edited, it will affect all pages using the template. I won't start using the template until I hear from you, I don't mind if you scratch the idea, I'm just assessing our options. --Matt 20 1 07:04, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Skin
Let me know if you have any preference about what colors you'd like in the skin. I was thinking maybe shades of red and blue from the logo. Anyway, let me know. JoePlay (talk) 21:39, 27 April 2009 (UTC)


 * The red didn't look that good with the other colors, so I didn't use it. So what do you think? Sort of a sky blue background with gold and dark brown from the logo. Let me know if you want me to tweak anything. JoePlay (talk) 23:07, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

The Wiki
The wiki looks great! I'll start with the template. But I might not be able to until Friday, cause I started sc-+9hool again today.--Matt 20 1 06:33, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
