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

  • New York (state) 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)

Hi Muboshgu. Since you indefinitely salted Jaan Nissar Lone, I am leaving this note to let you know that Dr Jaan Nissar Lone has been created by a new user. There is also a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests#Administrator needed (permalink) to move it to the salted title. SilverLocust 💬 07:59, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Creation protected page (Admin only creation)

Hi Muboshgu, in 2019 you protected Jaan Nissar Lone from creation. This morning I was on New Page Patrol and looked at article Dr Jaan Nissar Lone and was unable to move the page to remove honorifics from the page title - as the article was admin create protected I didn't review the contents or notability of the article and added a PROD (it wasn't in my opinion meeting any CSD criteria). See also talk page of article creator. Could you please take a look and see if it is appropriate to move/create this article. Best wishes Josey Wales Parley 12:03, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Muboshgu and User:Joseywales1961, please see also WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Farooqahmadbhat, thanks. Wikishovel (talk) 14:03, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Seems the new page may be deleted, so I will not interfere at this time. But maybe the "Dr" title will need to be salted as well. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:14, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cenk

What's the issue with your attempt at censorship, rather than discussion? Not only is that small section reliably sourced, but you also had less than 3 minutes to even look into it or see the video before reverting - far too little to evaluate the information or see that it was significant enough to be mentioned by CNN as a notable contraversy. I'll be attempting an RFC on this basis, since i think you're showing an obvious bias on the topic.

Thanks Jenova20 (email) 17:23, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I replied to you on the article's talk page. This is not "censorship" and starting an RfC is jumping the gun. See WP:RFCBEFORE. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:25, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Just to let you know that I have updated my statement on the arbitration board. Moreover, sorry if this offends you, but I believe you are wrong in reverting my edit: check the source I used and my statement for more. Scientelensia (talk) 13:36, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, if you want to return to working on this draft, you can restore it. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 23:05, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well she lost her election, so I don't expect that I will. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:31, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Signpost: 23 October 2023

Non-binding congressional resolution

What makes you think it is appropriate to delete what a Congressman voted on a resolution that is non-binding? It is as relevant as a statement by them on an issue which isn't even a vote. And we reflect such resolution votes all over the project. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:8014:CEBE:F68A:4374 (talk) 04:58, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
