I'm really surprised that you couldn't get anybody in #wikipedia-en . In the future, all I would suggest is going there and doing !admin . It is very odd that nobody responded to you. They (myself included) are usually there.

I think knocking only works if people in the channel are opped, so no.

tried that, and regular #wikipedia - no takers.
If you can't find any on the normal IRC channels who're free to do something, then it doesn't seem likely you'll manage to conjure up a handful by going anywhere else! Sometimes, there's just no-one around willing to be nagged...
(& the more special contact methods you develop, the less efficient any of them are)
This makes sense. Question: Does the freenode setup allow someone to "Knock" on the -admins channel. I could see someone knocking, entering, handling business, and promptly leaving. How does this sound?
