WikiCup 2023 September newsletter

The fourth round of the competition has finished, with anyone scoring less than 673 points being eliminated. It was a high scoring round with all but one of the contestants who progressed to the final having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were

Epicgenius, with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by
Sammi Brie, with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was
Thebiguglyalien, with 1535 points mainly gained from a featured article, 15 good articles, 26 good article reviews and lots of bonus points.

Between them during round 4, contestants achieved 12 featured articles, 3 featured lists, 3 featured pictures, 126 good articles, 46 DYK entries, 14 ITN entries, 67 featured article candidate reviews and 147 good article reviews. Congratulations to our eight finalists and all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them and within 24 hours of the end of the final. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

I will be standing down as a judge after the end of the contest. I think the Cup encourages productive editors to improve their contributions to Wikipedia and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), and Cwmhiraeth (talk)

Holiday Greetings

Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, people's rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension. Happy Holidays to you and yours. Always a pleasure to see your work. ―Buster7 ☎

2nd game of a DH

For the 2nd game of a DH, when adding the 27th player, it would make sense to DO a (2nd game) note for that date only. I don't see why there is any problem, as long as there is no error made. And there was no error, to use a BB term. Just because it "isn't done" doesn't mean it is forbidden by the rules. Lighten up already, and let more info be allowed!

MondayMonday1966, it isn't a matter of me needing to "lighten up". It's a matter of following WP:DATEFORMAT. Your previous edit confused another user. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:26, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And then I fixed it after seeing the problem. Only after that (one minute) you removed it Get the whole story straight, not just the partial storyline that you didn't say. Sorry for the initial mistake, but after I fixed it, you should have let it go. After that 2nd game and he was no longer active, I would then put him back on the inactive roster. I've done that before, and with the correction I made, it makes sense to do that to show it is in the middle of the two games on the same day, for accuracy.

Move of Trump article

Hi there, FYI when you moved the Trump article at 22:57, it was move-protected (sysops only) due to move-warring since 22:52 (duration then changed 22:53). No comment on the actual move itself but in terms of editing/moving through sysop-only protection, I wasn't sure if you were aware the protection existed at the time (everything is moving very quickly so I'm assuming you may not have realised it was protected). Cheers, Daniel (talk) 23:03, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I did not, thanks for lettin me know. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:05, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

All good, suspected this was the case. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 23:06, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rehashing RFK

Just a heads-up that the same old argument is starting up again at Talk:2024 United States presidential election#Shouldn't we add Kennedy/Shanahan to the main infobox? 2A02:C7C:E462:1200:F134:56B6:22F5:3310 (talk) 03:19, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
