WikiCup 2012 September newsletter

We're over half way through the final, and so it is less than a month until we know for certain our 2012 WikiCup champion. Grapple X (submissions) currently leads, followed by Sasata (submissions), Cwmhiraeth (submissions) and Casliber (submissions). However, we have no one resembling a breakaway leader, and so the competition is a long way from over. Next month's newsletter will feature a list of our winners (who are not necessarily only the finalists) and keep your eyes open for an article on the WikiCup in a future edition of The Signpost. The leaders are already on a par with last year's winners, but a long way from the huge scores seen in 2010. That said, a repeat of the competition from 2010 seems unlikely.

It is good to see that three-quarters of our finalists have already scored bonus points this round. This shows that, contrary to criticism that the WikiCup has received in the past, the competition does not merely incentivise the writing of trivial articles; instead, our top competitors are still spending their time contributing to high-importance articles, and bringing them to a high standard. This does a great service to the encyclopedia and its readers. Thank you, and good work!

The planning for next year's WikiCup is ongoing. Some straw polls have been opened concerning the scoring, and you can now sign up for next year's competition. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. 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.

Stephanie Morton

From what I can see, Stephanie Morton is a Tandem (UCI) guide. This should actually be made more clear in Para-cycling classification. She rode with Felicity Johnson. --LauraHale (talk) 00:58, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Quick query. Any action against this users pre-emptive socks also listed at AIV? Thanks. Pyrope 23:38, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Great, that's what I was hoping. I've been digging back through the last few days and there seem to be another couple of them (User:Nayanlaldas and User:Edvardbrns). What do you reckon to getting the site itself blacklisted? Thanks again. Pyrope 00:06, 22 October 2012 (UTC)

Already have done, unfortunately. See User:Alex Koper III. Sheesh. Pyrope 00:27, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
