Hi, I'm the owner of Glitch City Laboratories. 
We are currently not ready for any sort of membership/affiliation - we're in the middle of a huge overhaul, and part of that deals with those memory errors. As such we discussed whether to approach NIWA now or until the renovations are complete. We decided that we'd simply check to see if our wiki was conceptually eligible for membership/affiliation assuming that those problems would be smoothed over.
Torchickens is right; we're migrating from a non-wiki site over to MediaWiki, and there are still things left to be brought over, bugs to be fixed, and style issues to be addressed. In the future the wiki and the forum will be completely merged together and there will be a new style. We're investigating caching and other ways to improve our codebase, but I suspect there are simply errors in how I'm using the MediaWiki API (the GlitchDex is a dynamically generated page through an extension, so I think the bottleneck is in there somewhere)
So this isn't really a formal request for any sort of connection with NIWA, as I look at it. But we're interested in seeking such a connection when all of the bugs have been smoothed over and the final phase of "Project Phoenix" (as we refer to it) is complete.
(Torchickens: the old site dates back to December 2005 actually
the forums were opened in March 2006 tho)
(edit: I figured I should list some of the concerns I have regarding our eligibility. We're all really excited about the prospect, but I've been wondering specifically about these potential issues:
1 - we started out as a Pokemon website and are still primarily Pokemon, but we've since been starting to move into non-Pokemon territory. I'm concerned that a) we overlap significantly with Bulbapedia in this regard, and b) since we're moving more into general gaming glitches, we're no longer strictly a "Nintendo wiki".
2 - we are a wiki, but we have a feature called "flagged revisions" that allows us to have the capability to manually review edits before they make it onto the live website. We did this because, glitches being what they are, we wanted to be able to manually review every article that gets posted to make sure we can reproduce that glitch. I happen to like the idea, but people on Wikipedia have resisted flagged revisions because they feel it dilutes the "wiki way")
