[Q] Moderators - How to start a new forum/device?

I guess the title says it all - just got a new tablet (a Hannspree Hannspad SN10), and was "shocked" to see no forum/forii for this device exists on XDA - Several people have broached the subject - mostly on the Viewsonic GTablet forums (similar device) and slatedroid has a forum for the device.
My question is: how does one go about starting a new forum for a new (at least in XDA) device?
Thanks!

We add devices which have proven to have a big activity and many members, Admin team revises every request for adding a new section and some of them make it, some other not.
Members can´t open new sections of course.
Said that I am moving your thread to proper section, please be patient.

plus 1
Please open a sub thread for the Hannspad so we can lure some devs in-

me wants HANNspree HANNSpad (SN10T1)

[Request] Stop Starting Threads Here w/ 'One X'

This may come off as OCD but I hope new posters don't start threads in this forum with 'HTC One X' or 'One X'. It is repetitive.
This forum is purely for One X (not the XL).
Get to the point with your title. Makes it easier to read as well.

well, putting HTC One X in the tittle makes the thread a little searchable friendly in the search function and sometimes in google search if users are looking for a fix specifically on their One X.

+1, I sometimes use Google search to search XDA threads. Helps to have phone model in title.

You should post your request in:
New Device forum Request
that way the MODS will see your request quicker and will add your request to the other users

I'd like to know as well. I have this phone and I'd love to install cyanogen or at least find some mod for the navigation bar. I've made the request, but I doubt that they will add it as it seems not many people own this phone.

There does have to be a certain level of interest (ownership) to warrant adding a new forum as it does require server resources. No way around that.

ZL doesn't have it's own listing on forum index

Moderators: The forums for this phone do not appear in the main forum index like the Xperia Z forum does.
Thanks in advance

2 Problems with the forum over the last few days

First, it seems the "compact" layout isn't working.
Second some devices aren't showing up unless you search for them. For example AT&T HTC One doesn't appear in the list.
Is there something going on with the forum?

It was a bug and should be fixed now.
