What are spotlights?
Spotlight-ninjagaiden-20120322-255-de

Wikia Spotlights are the images that you see at the entire bottom of a page (where it says "⧼oasis-spotlights-footer-title⧽" - click here for a preview ?). They appear on each page that links to other Wikia sites!

To let other people know that your wiki exists too, you may therefore want to request a spotlight. That way, more people may find out about it :)

If your wiki is in one of the languages in the table below, you cannot request a spotlight on this wiki. Please go to the central wiki of your language, as is indicated below.
