Hi. I’ve given you admin and bureaucrat rights on this wikia as you requested. You now have the tools you need to clean up, customize and maintain the wikia.


 * Check out Wiki Features to see which features you can enable (or disable) on your wikia, including chat, forum, and many more. If you have adopted an older wikia with talk pages you can also enable message walls and article comments here.
 * Customize your wikia's look by visiting the Theme Designer, where you can add color and style to your background and wordmark.
 * Stop by Community Central to stay informed through our staff blog, ask questions on our community forum, or chat with fellow Wikians.
 * Lastly, visit our help pages to learn the ins and outs of using Wikia, including tips for managing your community, how to attract contributors, and how to add other admins.

Check out your Admin Dashboard, which can by found by clicking "Admin" on the bottom toolbar -- it has links to all your new tools. Please let me know if you have any questions, and good luck with your new (old) wikia! -- Wendy (talk ) 06:21, June 26, 2014 (UTC)

Come on Over!
Hello, NathanJohnson. I am FourSevensRueful, the active bureaucrat from FANDOM's Half-Life Fanon Wiki. In my time on FANDOM I staffed other game-related wikis including Prodigy Game Wiki, Prodigy Game Fanon Wiki, Adventure Academy Wiki, Drosophila Wiki, and others. I also serve sites such as the Half-Life and Portal Encyclopedia. I hope you recognize me from any of these.

Anyway, I have some news for you, and I'm not expecting you to be thrilled. However, there are benefits to what I'm proposing.

This wiki was made on a similar vein to the more populous one I mentioned that I staff. We have the same topic, the same basic stories, and my wiki has a greater storage size and page count than yours. FANDOM is closing duplicate communities and encouraging them to "get together," or merge. I am afraid that FANDOM will forcibly close one of them and move them over without my express(ed) consent, and I want to be able to form a safe partnership with you so that we can coexist on one major wiki.

It's not my intention to flex on you with the fact that Half-Life Fanon Wiki is larger, but it is my intention to tell you that it would be easier to move Half-Life Fan Fiction Over Wiki's pages to Half-Life Fanon Wiki than for their pages to be moved here. There are plenty of benefits to having a merger:


 * FANDOM won't do it in a way that potentially deletes your (or my) content
 * Our combined (haha, get it, Combine?) site will attract more users instead of splitting them apart
 * A combined website will have less competition and have better Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
 * We may have more pages than Half-Life & Portal Encyclopedia, therefore boosting viewer ratings even further
 * We can use the site to discuss fan games, community-created mods, roleplay, and fan fiction related to both Half-Life AND Portal

Here's what Half-Life Fanon Wiki already has that might be of interest to an increased viewership and greater popularity amongst Half-Life fans:


 * We have functioning message walls instead of user talk pages
 * We have a working blog index under the category "Blog posts"
 * I built the color scheme to be easy on the eyes and work in both darkmode and light mode
 * There are numerous page categories to choose from; these help ease internal searches
 * We accept Portal-related content, not just that from the Half-Life series

I think I've said what I needed to. I'm sure you have plenty of questions. I have dealt with mergers and site moves before, so I am confident that we can merge without too many problems. What are your thoughts? FourSevensRueful  ⚠ Hazard Experimenter ⚠ 23:12, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
