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)

Women in Green GA Editathon June 2024 - Going Back in Time

Hello Ezlev:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in June 2024!

Running from June 1 to 30, 2024, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Going Back in Time! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 20 centuries by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!

Question from Robert Corrington (04:09, 22 May 2024)

Hello, My father is John William Corrington (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_William_Corrington) His birth city is incorrect. Can I just change it? Or do you need a copy of his birth certificate? Also, I noticed a few [citations needed] on the page. How do I prove that some of those are correct? Thanks, Robert Corrington --Robert Corrington (talk) 04:09, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Corrington, you may wish to review Help:Sources and Wikipedia:Citing sources. The gist is that you do need to cite a reliable source for any of the changes you mention. However, content which is both unsourced and not correct may generally be removed at your discretion. His birth city appears to fall into that category. — ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 03:45, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from BigGiantPizza (16:14, 24 May 2024)

Hello Ezlev! I am happy that you are my mentor. Unfortunately, my account got hacked, and that someone wrote ‘’The Dude’’ on Erik the Red’s wikipedia page. How can I let Wikipedia know? TylerBurden reported me, thought it is not me. What should I do? --BigGiantPizza (talk) 16:14, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

BigGiantPizza, if you want to demonstrate that you are here to build an encyclopedia, I would suggest getting started with some helpful edits. See getting started for more information, and feel free to ask if you have any questions! — ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 18:29, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Ali Rehman Khan (16:53, 4 June 2024)

Do I need to publish pages in the user sandbox first, or can I publish directly as well? --Ali Rehman Khan (talk) 16:54, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ali Rehman Khan! You might want to take a look at Help:Your first article and Wikipedia:Articles for creation (AfC). If your account is less than 4 days old or has made less than 10 edits, you will be required to use the AfC process. After that you can create articles directly, but I would still recommend using AfC, as getting a more experienced editor to review your article before publication is a good thing! — ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 21:07, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
