Hiiii
I'm in a school project and I was wondering is you can adopt me. I'm super new at this and I don't know a lot about wikipedia.
We are going to write an article about business or something related to entrepreneur, but I really don't now how to start.
Hello, I have completed a general cleanup of the adopter information page for the adopt-a-user project, located here. During my cleanup, I have removed several inactive and retired users. In order to provide interested adoptees with an easy location to find adopters, it is essential that the page be up-to-date with the latest information possible. Thus:
If you are no longer interested in being an adopter, please remove yourself from the list.
If you are still interested, please check the list to see if any information needs to be updated or added - especially your availability. Thank you.
You are receiving this message because you are listed as an adopter here.
Hi! I've noticed that you are active in the adopt-a-user program, which I am currently trying to improve. In order for me to match adoptees with adopters that have similar interests, I'll need to know what subjects you like to contribute to on Wikipedia. If you will, please update your entry on the list mentioned above (MessageDeliveryBot post) with subject interests in the "On Wikipedia" section. I didn't include this in the bot message because, well, I just came up with this idea =P. Thanks.Netalarmtalk 07:00, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

Adoption?
Hey there! Since you're interested in wrestling, would you like to adopt User:Evrae Cross? This user has requested to be adopted and is also interested in wrestling, so I believe you would be able to work well with him. More information regarding the user is available here. Please respond as soon as possible so I can get back to the editor. Thank you. Netalarmtalk 03:22, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
Evrae Cross
Hi, thank you for adopting me :). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Evrae Cross (talk • contribs) 19:43, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi
Hiiiii!!!
In my english Class we have an assigment which is about writting and article. The article is going to be in teams, but we need to find topics first. So my question is if you have any ideas? it can be about a dead person, a place, or just somehting interesting that hasn't been written before in Wikipedia. Can you think of anything good to write about?!
Please help me.
Thank you very much. ZairaTheoneinblue (talk) 02:35, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi there Curtis23! You may be wondering, what have I done to sound the alarm this time? Nothing. I'm messaging you in regards to the adopt-a-user program, which currently has a backlog of users wishing to be adopted. This doesn't make much sense, as we have a considerable list of users offer adoption, so there shouldn't be any backlog. I've begun to eliminate this backlog myself through a matching program, but I need your help to make it work. Of course, adoptees and adopters don't have to go through there, but I believe it helps eliminate the backlog because someone is actively matching pairs.
On the list of adopters, I have modified the middle column to say "Interests." It's easier working with other users that have similar interests, so if it's not too much to ask, could you add your interests in the middle column? For example, if I was interested in hurricanes, computers, business, and ... reptiles? I would place those in the middle column. Counter-vandalism and the like can also be included (maintenance should be used as the general term). The more interests, the better, since adoptees can learn more about you and choose the one they feel most comfortable working with. The information about when you're most active and other stuff can go into the "Notes" section to the right.
Finally, I've gone around and asked adoptees (and will in the future) to fill in a short survey so adopters can take the initiative and contact users they feel comfortable working with. We all know that most adoptees just place the adopt me template on their user page and leave it - so it's up to us to approach them and offer adoption. So, please take a look at the survey, adopt those that fit your interests, and maybe watchlist it so you can see the interests of adoptees and adopt one that fits your interests in the future.
Once again, thank you for participating in the adopt-a-user program! If you wish to respond to this post, please message me on my talk page.

About your Admin Coaching request
Your submission at Admin Coaching has been removed from the request list, as requests where the submitter has not visited the page for at least 6 months (or been inactive for at least 4 months) are removed.
You are welcome to re-submit a request should you wish to, but please note that you are expected to regularly check the page (and to update the "last visited" field of your request) to show your continued interest in the project. If you do re-submit, please carefully re-read the instructions for submission as they may have changed since you last visited!
As noted on the project page, there is an on-going backlog with the project, as so few admins are currently coaching. This means that you may have a long wait for a response (if you receive one at all).
If you no longer require admin coaching, I hope that you continue to enjoy editing Wikipedia!
