Greek Football Cup

Hi, you helped with some edits before on various Greek Football articles. A minor controversy exists on Greek Football Cup page that led to an edit war. It is about statistics. 1961-62 Greek Football Cup final between Olympiacos and Panathinaikos was abandoned in overtime and the Federation never ordered a replay. There is a user Kyopa who keeps adding both finalists as runners-up, but in my opinion this leads to a statistical error. When a sport competition is abandoned there can be no winner/runner-up. You can see the discussion on the article's Talk page. Thought you can help as you are an experienced editor. Best regards! Abudabanas (talk) 09:52, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Reported Kyopa on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Still edit warring on Greek Football Cup and List of Greek Cup finals. First time I report a user. I tried everything. Exhausted. Tired. Abudabanas (talk) 11:19, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

@Abudabanas:, I understand, though the fact that you reported him at the "Vandalism" section instead of the "Edit warring and 3RR" section is likely to trigger him. But no one likes being reported or reporting someone else. It's a shame it came to this but it was probably unavoidable considering what he was doing. Just rememebr to inform him of what has taken place on his talk page if you haven't already REDMAN 2019 (talk) 11:23, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Reported him on Vandalism section cause I noticed that Admin GiantSnowman did the same 2 days ago. Abudabanas (talk) 11:32, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Ok. I will keep an eye on the discussion if I can. Good luck. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 11:33, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Report removed. This was the explanation by MDanielsBot: Removing Stale AIV Reports. BRFA. Stale time is at 4 hours. (New report needed? I am so sick of all this). Abudabanas (talk) 15:02, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

@Abudabanas:, No new report needed, he has been blocked for a week for edit warring. I just hope that this will be a wake-up call and that he will stop. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 15:18, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

User Padgriffin filed a new report and he was banned for 7 days. He is not going to stop. You 'll see. Edit warring will definetely continue. He 'll may be more kind so that he won't get blocked again. Abudabanas (talk) 08:03, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

Stop!

You ask me to stop. Why? Do you think that I am wrong? OK!

The point is, I think I'm right. So what should I do? What I believe or what you believe? You know a lot of people die for their faith. I am one of them.--Kyopa (talk) 17:25, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

WikiCup 2021 March newsletter

Round 1 of the competition has finished; it was a high-scoring round with 21 contestants scoring more than 100 points. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2, with 55 contestants qualifying. You will need to finish among the top thirty-two contestants in Round 2 if you are to qualify for Round 3. Our top scorers in Round 1 were:

• Epicgenius led the field with a featured article, nine good articles and an assortment of other submissions, specialising on buildings and locations in New York, for a total of 945 points.
• Bloom6132 was close behind with 896 points, largely gained from 71 "In the news" items, mostly recent deaths.
• ImaginesTigers, who has been editing Wikipedia for less than a year, was in third place with 711 points, much helped by bringing League of Legends to featured article status, exemplifying how bonus points can boost a contestant's score.
• Amakuru came next with 708 points, Kigali being another featured article that scored maximum bonus points.
• Ktin, new to the WikiCup, was in fifth place with 523 points, garnered from 15 DYKs and 34 "In the news" items.
• The Rambling Man scored 511 points, many from featured article candidate reviews and from football related DYKs.
• Gog the Mild, last year's runner-up, came next with 498 points, from a featured article and numerous featured article candidate reviews.
• Hog Farm, at 452, scored for a featured article, four good articles and a number of reviews.
• Le Panini, another newcomer to the WikiCup, scored 438 for a featured article and three good articles.
• Lee Vilenski, last year's champion, scored 332 points, from a featured article and various other sport-related topics.

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. In Round 1, contestants achieved eight featured articles, three featured lists and one featured picture, as well as around two hundred DYKs and twenty-seven ITNs. They completed 97 good article reviews, nearly double the 52 good articles they claimed. Contestants also claimed for 135 featured article and featured list candidate reviews. There is no longer a requirement to mention your WikiCup participation when undertaking these reviews.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article candidate, a featured process, or something else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

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. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 (talk) and Cwmhiraeth (talk).

Liverpool vs Barcelona

Hi, I am a fellow Liverpool Supporter like yourself and I created the article for Liverpool 4 - 0 Barcelona. I was wondering why there can't be a space inbetween the scores, in my opinion, it looks much better. Thanks. TheWikiEditor1234 (talk) 17:38, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

TheWikiEditor1234, I understand, but no spaces is what is usually used in these articles. See FC Barcelona 6–1 Paris Saint-Germain F.C. and FC Barcelona 2–8 FC Bayern Munich. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 17:43, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
